64 Bits or Less 2026 was a huge success! Thanks to everyone who came out. Especially to the vendors and volunteers who make this event happen every year. Here's a time lapse of the whole festival. Four days - from setup to teardown - compressed to three minutes. We'll see you all again next year!

Love it! We just helped restore a damaged cabinet for one of these. Its now installed at a local independent theater. I really love the artwork on the side of the cabinet.
A Crystal Caves cabinet in a crowded garage. The screen, marquee, and internals have been removed, and two men are assessing the damage to the cabinet.The same cabinet, still in the garage, but now reassembled and in use. The cabinet is now outside on the sidewalk. Three people admiring it. The side of the cabinet is visible and is covered with artwork depicting a blue and purple isometric castle and various characters which include a bear in a wizard hat, sentient trees, ghosts, a witch, etc.The restored cabinet installed in the lobby of the Pix Theater. On the wall next to the cabinet is a vintage neon sign with art deco styling which reads "PIX".
