In addition to our board, PRGE is supported by a small army of awesome volunteers, without whom PRGE would not happen. PRGE is operated by an all-volunteer board of rabid video game fans. In regard to full-size arcade cabinet games we have, somewhat arbitrarily, chosen games older than 10 years as eligible for classic status. By this definition the Nintendo Wii, XBox 360 and Playstation 3 have moved into the classic realm (replaced by the Wii U, XBoxOne and Playstation 4 respectively). Our loose definition of a classic video game is any from a system released prior to the most recent generation by any game manufacturer.
It is our belief that by highlighting video games of the past, we will inspire the game creators of the future in all of these areas. Video games bring together multiple disciplines including mathematics, physics, art, music and drama. PRGE believes that, by demonstrating original game hardware and software in working condition, we provide a clearer example of video game culture through the years and a better experience for our attendees. As years pass and new systems replaced the old, it does not always occur to game manufacturers and owners to preserve examples of their games for the future.
The first consumer video games were created over 40 years ago. Our main methods for doing this are through hands-on interaction with classic games and by hosting speaking engagemments from important figures from video game history. Our primary mission is to educate our visitors on the impact that video games have made on our society. It is through events like our annual Expo that we will meet our goals: Educate PRGE seeks to continually improve the quality and depth of our events. is a Portland, Oregon-based 501(c)4 non-profit cooperative organization dedicated to creating awareness of, and appreciation for classic video and arcade games through the presentation of events and conventions that celebrate the historic contribution video games have made and continue to make in popular culture.
