Ray >> I didn’t really go in the gaming room much because of the bag issue. I know Best Buy had stuff for sale in there, but I never really looked at it. I was glad to go to a Best Buy afterwards to get that second Haruhi box!

Nice wrap up of Connecticon. I identified a few of your mystery photos, via comments on your Flickr gallery.

Very nice review of the convention. You’re right. Connecticon was a lot more enjoyable than AnimeNext. I would say CTCon is the best small con I have been to so far. Last year’s AnimeUSA was pretty good too. I do have to say one thing about the bag policy from both CTCon and AnimeNext. CTCon did not allow people into the video gaming room with their bags, but they had a bag check-in service right next to the video game room entrance. On the other hand, AnimeNext did not allow folks to go into the dealer’s room with their bags and they did not have any bag check-in service what-so-ever! Don’t tell me they didn’t have enough space for that, I checked and saw a large empty area next to the dealers “section”. Yes, I shouldn’t call that a dealer’s room, they just used some huge black curtains to divide up the convention center (looks more like a warehouse) into sections/”rooms”. Anyway, I enjoyed and had a lot fun at CTCon then AnimeNext! Job well done, CTCon……….I’ll be back!
