Midwest Gaming Classic

Continuing coverage of the Midwest Gaming Classic, part 5 we talk with Jeri Ellsworth. I first met Jeri on a uStream chat years ago and we’ve conversed back and forth since. However, this is the first time we’ve met face-to-face, so it was a special event for me.

We sat down in a hallway and talked on the camera about who Jeri was and what she’s working on. Jeri and Ben Heckendorn are doing a little side competition called “Pinball wars” where they both make machines and show them off.

Jeri’s Pinball machine is pretty interesting. She talks about it’s theme “As Seen on TV” and some other cool projects she’s working on. We reminisce about the C-64 and COMPUTE! Magazine.
