First post update of details!

When: May 22nd, 2010, 1pm onwards
Where: Ryu1972's place, at 4824 E 53rd St, Minneapolis
Who: Peepz.
How much: FREE because it's Ryu1972's common area. If you want to bring snacks/drinks, that'd be more than welcome.
What to bring: TVs!!! Last time we had a grand total of 5, and that was supposed to be for a dozen and a half people. Don't be a freeloader. Also, video games and systems n stuff. The room will be secure so we don't have to worry about theft.
Food sit-rep: Expect to eat elsewhere. We can make eating teams if need be, but don't expect a meal to be made on site.


Now I know that Raging Storm is in April (which djdelly will be in town for), but I figured I'd start a thread checking for legitimate interest in doing another small gathering in the spring, thinking sometime in mid-May. Ryu1972 would be cool hosting again, and we could even work out a better way to set up the room.

Anyway, just give your vote.

Yeah, I had a great time last time --I think these would be fun if we just make it casual again. Save the serious stuff for the meltdowns and the raging storms.

I voted too! :p

Hopefully I can play the NEO this time.

When would be the best next time? Before Raging Storm or after?

I figured that after might be nice. That way we can alternate gathering, tournament-heavy gathering, gathering, tournament-heavy gathering (MM). Also, selfishly, May is a lot better for me because then I will be done with this semester of school and I'll be more open to doing stuff.

Thoughts from anyone else?

I'm down for the 22nd too. Hopefully this works for everyone else. I might not be playing too many fighting games cause I'm down for some good ol' fun. Last time I saw Final Fight play there which was cool so I was thinking for next time we break out some SoR!

YOOOOOOO, I think I had one of the earlier versions of that shit, I didn't know anyone else here knew of that.

Shit man, I might download that newest version and bring my laptop to the gathering for that. I have a ps2 (or dreamcast/saturn) to usb adapter for it.

You ever played Guardian Heroes for Saturn? I ask for that game every year and for some reason, either no one brings it or I never get a chance to play it. I would really like to play it this time...

22nd of May voted for 2 people, anyone else?

Yeah, but I didn't know about Final Fight last round though. They both look awesome. How do you download those games anyway? Oh btw, I never played Guardian Heroes for the saturn, but I just youtube'd it and it looks fun, but I don't know what it's about.

I did have it but I sold it to a forum member last summer. :(

I do still have the save data with everyone unlocked though, plus 2 multitaps and 10 controllers for 6 player GH/10 player Saturn Bomberman love.
