TV2 sin reportasje fra Retromessa i Sandefjord ga nesten tårer i øynene for en gammel gamer. Fordi her er det mye gull. Den største "stjernen" som var på årets Retromesse var gamedesigneren Takaya Imamura.

Had a very good time at #retromessa today — kids got to play Duke Nukem and Duck Hunt; we found merch; I met @zendar.bsky.social for the first time which was very nice. It’s only about an hour south of Oslo and delightfully uncommercial — heavy recommend!
Friend of The Retro Hour Podcast Paul Drury hosts a special conversation with composers Richard Jacques, Ross Tregenza, Graeme Norgate, David Wise and Grant Kirkhope, sharing stories and insights from the golden age of videogame music.

The trs-80 colour. I had the model 1(4k ram-4k rom and basic written by Bill Gates. Storage was tapere order and the screen had both black and green colours)
The Amiga 1000. I bought mine new with a c compiler.
Today we had a retro convention in my town. Saw some machines from my youth. #retromessa #sandefjord
Poster illustration for Retromessa 2025, showing a F-Zero track over the city of Sandefjord. The Moon from Majora's Mask is looking down upon the chaos happening on the road. Norwegian Youtubers are driving the Blue Falcon, we also see Skull Kid on his own cart, plus Donkey and Diddy Kong. Tingle is hovering above the madness in his usual red balloon. In the distance, we see a bunch of Arwings.
I'm finally allowed to share this.
Poster I made for Retromessa this year!
Main guest is Takaya Imamura, so I went wild with games he worked on.
The fellows in the Blue Falcon are local youtubers.

Retromessa 2024 Poster. A children's birthday party with an assortment of different characters, almost all in some way linked to guests of the convention.
Snuck in during rigging on Friday, got my pass and because I'd feel bad for just leaving, I asked to help, and started carrying chairs.
Saturday crowd! I walked around for 6 hours or so, but didn't have a dull moment because so many people stopped to have a chat with me.
Face reveal? Also, I met Shimomura-san and was so nervous I, in an instant, forgot the last year or so of Japanese learning.
Went to Retromessa this weekend.
I made the poster for them again, but I decided I wanted to go as a normal visitor this year for a change.
It was a blast, and of course I barely took any pictures...
Next year, I'll have a table as usual!

It's super cool to have a game presence at Retromessa! It's our first time with the legendary composure Chris Huelsbeck being a fantastic ambassador there, signing copies of our game album! #InterstellarSentinel #Retromessa #indiegames 🌟🎮 #videogames
