The inaugural International contest was an awesome Anglo-Irish Tournament held in 2007. The 2010 Championship was held in Nuremberg, Germany and the hosts went to every length to ensure an enjoyable tournament was had by all. Following a six-hour 16-bit fest, Portugal claimed their third successive title, winning comfortably from second place Germany. The focus of the competitions is on friendly competitions, the enjoyability of playing some classic games, with excellent company and good coffee.
