EGG Exhibition - The World of Retro PC Games - will be held on the 1st floor of Onoden

Although the term "retro games" is used broadly, it covers a wide range of genres.
People who like home console games, people who like arcade games, and...
For those who love retro PC games!!

This time, we would like to bring you the latest from the "EGG Exhibition - The World of Retro PC Games" being held at Akihabara Onoden.

What is the EGG Exhibition - The World of Retro PC Games?

This is a retro PC gaming event being held at Gran Esta on the first floor of Onoden.
Retro PC games have a fairly clear definition, and refer to games from the DOS/V era, such as the PC88 and PC98, which are on display at this EGG exhibition.
Unlike Windows machines or modern games, it has a small capacity, is unfriendly, and is difficult, but for some reason it has a captivating charm.
The venue will feature exhibits of retro PC games, demos using actual PC88 machines, and merchandise for sale.
Another feature of the event is that it is not only held in Akihabara, but all over the country.
The event will be held in Akihabara from May 18th to June 2nd, followed by other cities, and will conclude with the Sendai event on August 12th.

My top recommendation is this Xanadu T-shirt, available in two colors.

Many other apparel items available.

There are also acrylic blocks for POWER DoLLS2.
It's famous for having very cute female characters.

A deeper look into the world of retro and PC games

Among retro games, PC games are known for their deep world.
First of all, it's difficult because you have to set up a large PC that takes up more space than a home console!
The game is keyboard-based, suggesting that using a mouse or pad to play is still a long way off.
Depending on the game, you may not be able to operate it unless you enter commands...
That's why we highly recommend you experience the captivating world of retro PC games.

The thing that surprised me the most was that there was a timeline of Madou Monogatari...
Is it actually rare...?
