The Retro-gaming Connexion in 2007 was home to the public debut of the third
production run of Beggar Prince. Playable previews of Zaku for the Atari Lynx
and Super Fighter Block Battle for the mobile phone were also on display.
A member of the Retro-gaming Connexion team named Guillaume Dupré invited
us to attend the event as guests, and arranged for us to stay in a cozy hotel
called the Relais du Pré, which we found very accomodating. Our experience
was particularly interesting and enjoyable because, in addition to presenting
our products to an overseas audience in person for the first time, we also had
the chance to discuss the classic video game development scene as it exists in
France.
