What an unbelievable weekend for retro gaming! From August 7th through August 9th, 2026,
the Intec Gaming® team set up shop at the historic Cradle of Aviation Museum in Garden
City, NY for the annual Long Island Retro Gaming Expo (LI Retro).Located inside the show’s centerpiece—the legendary Hangar Arcade—gamers tested out our
gear directly under the wings of real fighter jets. The electrifying atmosphere felt straight out of
Guile’s Air Force Stage in Street Fighter II, and the energy from attendees made this one of our
best expos yet!
Here is a full breakdown of what happened at our booth, our special guest visits, and how youcan get your hands on our gear if you missed out on site.
🚀 Booth Highlights: 6 SKUs Sold Out On-Site!
The response to our product lineup was overwhelming! Gamers lined up at our booth to try out
our live free-play setups, leading to at least 6 SKUs selling out completely during the show:
● 🔫 Time Breaker LightGun™ for PS1 & PS2: Both the Blue and Gray models sold out
as attendees experienced its accuracy and responsive lightgun action firsthand.
● ⚡ Power Kits: Demand was sky-high for console restorations—our 9V Power Kit, 5V
Power Kit, and 12V/15V Power Kits were completely cleaned out!
● 🕹 Turquoise GBA Consolizers: Game Boy Advance fans snagged every last one of
our popular consolizer kits.
● 🕹 Arcade1Up Mod Kit (Power Stick): In a surprise highlight, our live Arcade1Up
Intec Gaming® Power Stick display unit was bought right off our booth floor by an
enthusiastic fan—even though we hadn't originally planned to sell it!

Feature3. A Visit from Esports Legend Walter Day
Iconic Esports Pioneer Walter Day & Ryan Burger
We had the distinct honor of meeting Walter Day, widely recognized as the pioneer who helped
lay the groundwork for modern esports.
Special thanks to Ryan Burger, Publisher of Old School Gamer Magazine, for introducing us!
Walter—the founder of Twin Galaxies, inspiration behind Mr. Litwak in Disney’s Wreck-It Ralph,
and featured referee in The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters—even autographed a copy of his
book for us. Discussing retro hardware preservation and gaming history with true legends was
an unforgettable highlight of the show!
🦆 Sneak Peek Preview: The Upcoming NES LightGun &
Console
In addition to our available hardware, we gave expo attendees an exclusive first look at our
upcoming Time Breaker LightGun™ for NES. Attendees were able to test original NES light
gun cartridges running on Intec Gaming®’s upcoming NES Console, set for release later this
year! Stay tuned for official pre-order announcements.
