- WELCOME TO THE6TH ANNUAL GAMING SHOW!

Renton City Retro started in 2014 when some gamers had a gathering and realized there is a demand to buy, sell, and trade video games. Our passionate crew put together a small show in Lake City, WA and drew about 200 attendees. With rapid growth we couldn’t hold it at the Lake City Community center anymore. So, we moved to Kent Commons Center and sold over 1000 tickets. With a huge increase of attendees, we knew we had something big going.

Since then Renton City Retro has become a non-profit and is back for it’s 6th annual gaming show. This year we are going to limit the number of vendors to provide an elite gaming experience for our attendees. We’re focusing on game developers/designers, YouTube content creators, Twitch Streamers, and did we mention gaming?! There will be pinball tournaments, arcade machines, tabletop games, modern gaming, retro gaming, and more.

Join us for a fun, unique family friendly experience both casual and hardcore gamers will enjoy!

PINBALL TOURNAMENT RULES(3-strike)

Head to head knockout This format will require players to be present at the tournament start time and play until they receive their third strike. Players will be matched against another player on a pinball machine at random to play a two-player game. Player order is determined by coin flip. The loser of the game will receive a strike; three strikes removes the player from the tourney. The winner of the tourney is the last player remaining. Extra balls must be plunged, but the player may attempt a skillful plunge to try for a skill shot or another desirable target.
