Generation X. If you grew up in the 1970s, 1980s, and early 1990s, you know just how cool it was to be a kid back then. We had the greatest music, movies, games, technology, and pop culture of any generation, and though we"ve grown older, we have refused to outgrow our love of everything GenX. GenXGrownUp looks at yesterday and today through the eyes of Generation X"ers who have refused to grow up!

Mini Arcade Machine Collecting & Investing (SFGE 2022...

GenXGrownUp Podcast ·

2022/08/08

We had the great opportunity this year to host a panel at the Southern Fried Gaming Expo on Mini Arcade Machine Commerce. We love the fact that they are creating varying versions of the arcade cabinets we all loved growing up as GenX’ers, but are they worth it? How good are they? Are they possible investment opportunities or just nice shelf candy? We talk about all of those questions and a lot more during this presentation!
