An Atari Lynx prototype along with two "His & Hers" units.
The unreleased Atari Mindlink controller was supposed to allow you to control Atari 2600 games with your mind!
In actuality, it was your facial expressions that controlled the games.
The Fairchild Channel F system from 1976.
A nice tribute to Gerald "Jerry" Lawson whose groundbreaking work in games led to programmable cartridges.
Before his work, games were always programmed directly into the systems.
The Sega Master System alongside a rare Master System Demo Kiosk that allowed people to try out 16 different games.
The Sega CD System, the Sega 32X system, the Sega IR 7000 Communicator, and the always ocular-agonizing Virtual Boy.
The Virtual Boy again alongside the Sega Saturn system.
A collection of of video game puffy stickers from the 80s including Dragon's Lair, Frogger, Donkey Kong, Pac-Man and Zaxxon.
A Dragon's Lair and Atari themed Lunchbox and thermos.
The Panasonic 3D0 is still one of my favorite systems to this day.
Overpriced when it was released, but had some fantastic games. I played Captain Quazar, Gex, Samurai Shodown and more on this thing for countless hours.
Gold stars awarded for reaching high scores in Cosmic Ark, Atlantis, Demon Attack, Riddle of the Sphinx and Trick Shot.
A variety of video game pins, patches, stickers and even an old Missile Command scratch-off card from McDonald's.
The Atari Cosmos sits proudly next to its old CES award. Atari Brain Game Pong & carts are below it.
As a fan of The Wizard, I was really excited to see this: A genuine Nintendo World Championships cartridge from 1990.
Only 90 of these grey carts exist and have sold for as much as $10,000.
An Adventure Visusion tabletop game with Defender cartridge alongside
the
Videoplexer which allowed you to have multiple carts plugged in at the same time.
A rare prototype for the Sega Neptune!
The Stadium Events NES cart. These aren't cheap.
If you can afford one, please send me some money instead, ok? Thanks. You're a real pal.
AdventureVision system cartridges - Space Force, Super Cobra and Turtles.
One of my favorite things was that they had a vintage living room setup with an Atari 2600, old couch and TV set.
And yes, Pac-Man on the Atari 2600 is still pretty awful, but god do I love the sounds it makes.
Yep, this is pretty much how most tabletops looked back in the eighties (minus the cd-rom).
Another awesome sight - a huge demo kiosk for Atari home computers!
Some table top games still in their boxes including Stargate, Crazy Climber, Spiders and Star Hawk.
Hore handheld games and even the old Etch-A-Sketch Animator.
They really need to start producing Yars' Revenge fly spray again.
It'd be nice to see plush Q*bert dolls with squeezable squeaky noses in stores again too.
Old video game hats, bags and other knickknacks.
The Sharp Twin Famicom system and a Nintendo Speedboard.
Yes, the speedboard, for people who simply refused to hold a NES controller in their hands.
A Famicom alongside R.O.B. - the Robotic Operating Buddy for the NES.
The Nintendo Entertainment System Action Set, Control Deck and the Power Glove.
I love the Power Glove. It's so bad.
The Famicom Box!
This was actually a hotel unit with the controllers and zapper gun hard wired into the system along
with the games.
Looks more like it belongs in the military than in a hotel.
There's still much more to see from
I-Mockery's coverage of E3 2011!

You know, Rog, at least there's a new Shinobi coming out, who cares what system it's on? I would murder someone for the chance to play a new Strider game on anything, let alone the DS.
Want to add a few things though, if its ok?
Your not really saying it is at all but its worth noting that Operation Raccoon City isn't a sequel to Resident Evil, its more of a alternate reality Left 4 Dead-ish (like you mentioned) side thing. And the only reason I'm saying its alternate reality is because of the prospect of doing certain things that will make other things in the RE Universe never happen (But I won't spoil the event for anyone who may not know). The real RE4-ish, horror, experience is going to come from the 3DS RE title Revelations, which is looking like its going to be sort of going back to the series darker roots.
As for Silent Hill, theres a lot riding on this game resonating with fans. Konami knows people didn't groove on Homecoming and really seem to want to change that. So thats probably the reason why the game was shown in such a shoddy alpha state as it was, companies usually tend to do something like this when they have to prove something and want to show it. Whether or not they polish all that out, or even make a truly likable game out of what they have, is something we really don't know till its closer to release.
I don't believe Capcom's ever had anything to do with Dead Island and I can't find anything off hand that says they ever did. That said, Square-Enix will be publishing this one for Deep Silver.
Given all the stupid crap the Hulk's been (or put himself) through in recent years I'm not surprised he didn't look so cheery.
Duke Nukem Forever came out today in the US (and last Friday elsewhere), so that's probably why it had such a huge line at last weeks show. People were chewing a the bit to play it.
Overall though I was really unimpressed with E3 all together this year. There were some small things here and there that I'm looking forward to but if the show never existed I'd be just as interested if I read them on some website somewhere.
they didn't happen to have an arcadia/starpath supercharger, did they?
That Famicom Box is really great. And I'm ridiculously excited about the new Twisted Metal.
I just can't help but wonder what Rei thinks of Rog flirting with all those booth babes.
Also, those were some phenomenal pictures. Especially the old gaming stuff.
