-Nick

[Josh]

I'm down for it! I'll be there for E3. It's a 2 hours drive for me!

[aria]

Starting in June, I will be in back in SoCal until about August -working during the week, but free on weekends (and back in my LA apartment).

I'll be willing and available for any events scheduled on weekends during that time.

[BIG]

Man,now this is what I'm talking about!! Thanks for all the show of support,guys! Now,Let's get a definite date going.Any suggestions?
@ Mike Yagami-I would love to fricking pay for your ticket,man!
@ Mookey- You're not too far,man.Come on down!Nruva and I are meeting up this Saturday,you should come along!
@CrackerMessiah- Don't worry,your GBA case is safe with me wink
@Cynn - Get down here,now!!
@NEORyu - You gotta come.
@Yungburnout - You ain't too far,either,man!
@Bobak - You can set up the date! glee

[ForeverSublime]

I could probably attend one in June, or anytime thereafter. If I went, would anyone be willing to let me sleep on their floor for a night?

[8 1/2]

I know I'm new, but if the invitation is open to all then I'm down. I live in Arcata, but it would be well worth the roadtrip to play with some real gamers. 10 hours on the road is a small sacrifice for a meet. Does anyone know when E3 is exactly? I always thought it was closed to the public, but if it's going on, then I might as well go check that out as well.

[BIG]

Hey,if driving 10 hours is your thing,what are you waiting for? Sign up,now!!

[Nismonotmugen]

big im down, lmk whats going on.

[BIG]

@ Nismonotmugen-You're on! Just keep checking this post for updates,man!

[THEMAN, the annhialator of worlds]

Have you LA members actually already had a get together? I know the other places have already had quite a few. I would think the LA people would have the easiest time organizing a get together compared to the rest since I assume there's a high concentration of Neo gamers/collectors in the LA area.

[NeoGeo2k2]

I'm down..
i talk about a get together a while back with, Trieu, Eric, Mooky, Sono, bomber, but only a few of us show up...
So if we do it, count both of us Me and Sono in, that is if he's not working that day...
let me know time and place..
Anyone near San Bernardino, Fontana, Rialto, Ontario, Redlands, Riverside, Corona, Moreno Valley, if you need a ride let me know, and we can all carpool in my car..
buttrock

[Hardcore_LA_Gamer]

Hi! I'm there. As a matter of fact I'm down to doing this at my place. Let's make it during the summer so that many of us can make it. What do you say?

[Cynn]

Does anyone know when E3 is exactly? I always thought it was closed to the public, It's May 13th-16th, and yes it is closed to the public. Sorry man.

I'll be in LA from 11-17th

[KOF_FANATIK]

YO NOTORIOUS B.I.G

[BIG]

Kool,keep them coming,folks! Now,for the actual day and time.I'm down for whatever,whenever,so it's really up to the rest of you guys.I really want EVERYONE to be able to make it,so what would it be? The E3 weekend or a weekend during summer?Keep checking in on this thread for updates, and of course, any comments or suggestions are welcomed!
Let's make this happen!!!

@KOF_FANATIK- Keep bumpin'this thread t'ill it happens,G! Let your boy Sonofx know,see if he's down!

[Neo Mike]

I'll be there too. I tried to set one of these up a while back for us Angelinos, but nothing came of it. Just let me know a date/time :)

[BIG]

@ NeoMike - Since you already had this idea the last time,would you care to suggest when and where this should take place? BTW,where in L.A. are ya? I'm really close to Downtown,so perhaps we can discuss this with the rest of the guys and get things set-up.Whatdayasay?

[Wan-Fu]

Count me in too.

[Neo Mike]

Our original intent was a Southern Hills Golfland trip, and then ending up at another members house. Nothing ever came of it unfortunately -- and now Golfland is no more :(

I'm actually in Costa Mesa now...

<small>[ April 11, 2003, 01:29 PM: Message edited by: Neo Mike ]</small>

[Zeekade Zarathos]

Um, I live in LA as well, guys but my house would NOT be good (very small, cramped, roommates, etc, etc). Any date's fine with me, so no discrepancies there. Keep me informed.

[BIG]

Cool,I hope everyone can make it.Should we try and get things done through AIM? It will be much easier to communicate that way.Any suggestions on dates and location? Keep'em coming!

[NeoGeo2k2]

any time if it's the weekend, or a Friday.
Place ? how about in front of the Staples Cntr?
wink

[BIG]

Good idea! Staples center or the Convention Center would be great! Easily accessible to almost anyone within the greater LA area.Any other suggestions?

[FeelGood]

You guys just gonna bust out the cab right there in front of the Staples Center?

Who sez LA isn't hardcore?

[BIG]

Hey Feelgood,are you down for the meet-up?Let's make this happen!

[NeoGeo2k2]

FeelGood:
You guys just gonna bust out the cab right there in front of the Staples Center?

Nope i was thinking meeting there since it's really easy to get there, and from there go to where ever place we want.

[FeelGood]

B.I.GPSYCHE:
Hey Feelgood,are you down for the meet-up?Let's make this happen! Naw not really. :D

I'm not too into video games anymore. Not that hardcore that would warrant a trip anyway. Aside from a couple ports, I haven't played a Neo game ever since I sold my cab well over a year ago.

[FeelGood]

I might be down for some serious Neo Freak POONHUNT though...LA STYLE! All you legal fucks meet up at some kickin club, get toasted and laid. I'd be down for that shit. No video game or comic related t-shirts though or I'll pretend I don't know who you are.

[Neo Mike]

Feelgood - what clubs do you usually go to in OC?

[FeelGood]

All the big ones. I don't think there is one I haven't been to.

Club Rubber (I hate this fucking place but it's always packed. Expensive as fuck. One night I dropped over $50 and I wasn't even through the fucking door yet. I keep hitting it up at times though)

Liquid Lounge (Cool little laid back place with a cheap cover and awesome drinks. Small as shit dance floor but the decor is pretty badass)

Shark Club (I love this place. 2 blocks from where I grew up. I always used to wonder what the hell was in that building but now I know. PUSSAY!)

Club Boogie (this place ownZ so much ass with its $8 cover it isn't even funny)

Plus a bunch of the popular LA clubs. There are a few more but I'm drawing a blank. Haven't been up there in a while though. I never hit up hotspots where you need to be on a list or whatever. Fuck those places.

[Nismonotmugen]

i cant go to a club yet. hey mike can i drive your m3?

[FeelGood]

Actually Boogie is 18 and over. Plus there are a bunch of bars in there (need your hand stamped w/ID) so I can still get you drunk. buttrock

You drive an M3 Mike?

[Nismonotmugen]

my friends go to Boogie. Feelgood are you feels from speed society???

[Neo Mike]

Haha, no one drives her but me :)

Yeah, i go to sharks every thurs. and Liquid every Friday. I actually live a block from Sharks club. Let me know if you ever wanna meet up.

You ever go to Pierce st or Goathill? Josh Slocums?

Used to go to Aysia101 before they closed it frown

-Jose

[FeelGood]

Nismonotmugen:
my friends go to Boogie. Feelgood are you feels from speed society??? Nope, not me.

Damn sub in my car keeps going out. It's an 8" JL but I think I push it too hard cuz the little wires connecting the connectors to the internal sub shit (2 of them, + and -) broke. My house has NO tools so u wanna hear some ghetto shit? I fixed it yesterday with some tin foil and scotch tape. ROFL broke again today though. Maybe I gotta bust out the duct tape on that motherfucker. buttrock

I think I've been to Aysia101, wasn't that a sushi club? I think I dropped like $80 on a round once there. :D

Dude if you hit up Shark/Liquid every Thur/Fri then you've prolly seen me a few times. I was at a Thur night Shark like 3 weeks ago I think and I was at Liquid on Fri a couple weeks ago. I'll always hit up those two at the last minute if I'm bored or just wanna dance or whatever. I tend to avoid Thursday nights since I started working at 4 fucking AM in the morning last November. very_ang

Yeah we should plan to go at the same time sometime so we can say sup.

[KOF_FANATIK]

:) any1 else?

[Josh]

I think the best day would be Friday the 16th of May. Friday is the Last day of E3 and it would be great to top it off with a NEO BASH! The only thing is the place, where? I could bring some Home Carts!

[BIG]

Anyone else up for E3 weekend? Like I said,I'm down whenever,so let's get a vote going for time and location!

[Zeekade Zarathos]

B.I.GPSYCHE:

[Poison Sama]

I'll be going to LA in a couple of weeks. Dunno when I'll go there again though.

The last time I was in LA, was last November during Thanksgiving. I went to Amoeba during a blackout, it seems like a cool place when the lighting and the ventilation are working. Especially the ventilation.

I'm in San Diego, btw.

[KOF_FANATIK]

WHO IS GOING FOR SURE THAT WEEKEND IS COOL!

[BIG]

I'm down for E3 weekend,anyone else?We can all meet up there,and we can head down to family arcade or the college arcade or something.Any other suggestions?

[KOF_FANATIK]

cool man which college or how about a friggin big ass resturant to chill and has neo games?

[Loopz]

I'll be in town for E3, count me in.
I'd love to play some serious KoF'98 or SS2 with some true Neo addicts.

[Zeekade Zarathos]

Bump.

Any time, any place near or around LA is fine and dandy. Are we pretty much set on E3 weekend? Seems like the perfect time.

<small>[ April 12, 2003, 08:24 PM: Message edited by: Zeekade Zarathos ]</small>

[BIG]

Cool! E3 weekend it is! Is Staple Center cool for starting point? Let it be known. Now,for the most important part,location of the actual gathering.Any suggestions or offers?

[nruva]

I'll be there... got to hang out with Chai (B.I.GPSYCHE) tonight... good times man... Let's get this whole thing rolling. E3 weekend it is, now who is showing up... let's get a show of hands so we can plan where and what we do!

-Nick

[aria]

If you do E3 weekend, consider a just-off-site location in case some people can't make it in.

The lobby restuarant at the Hotel Figueroa is very near to the Staples Center, very cool looking, and has decent food (at least a year ago).

I can't make it there that weekend, but if I was to pick a place, that would be it.

[Zeekade Zarathos]

[KOF_FANATIK]

lets do this that weekend is fine hey any1 kow when mothers day is?

[BIG]

Great! So far,we have Nruva,Cracker Messiah,KOF_FANATIK,Zeeke,Sonofx,myself,and maybe Loopz,whose down for the E3 weekend.Keep checking this thread for updates!

[KOF_FANATIK]

:D

[Kid Aphex]

Im down.

[Josh]

I'm down for it! What day should it be? Friday, Saturday, or Sunday? Anyone know where there are NEO machines in the area?

[Kid Aphex]

Can't let this thread sink; here's for people who missed it. Bump

[BIG]

Cool,NEORyu and Kid Aphex added to the E3 weekend roster.Anyone else down for the get-together?BTW,having lunch together is also a great idea.Any suggestions?Let's keep updating this post until everything is definite.

[Hardcore_LA_Gamer]

Hey, don't forget me!!

[BIG]

Hardcore_LA_Gamer added to the list.Now,we need a definite location.Any suggestions or offers?

[KOF_FANATIK]

B.I.G U know what bro? i was thinking we could all meet up at the staple center and then go to diamond bar to the THE BOAT its a viet/thai resturant (best food on earth) and then just walk to ARCADE-INFINITY since it is in the same plaza or just stay in LA altogether. i vote for for a sunday!!! cmon peeps voice out what day B.I.G NEEDS TO KNOW, :D AS DO WE ALL!

PS AND JUST TO LET U KNOW THE BOAT is probly the best place due to the fact that it has tables for like groups of 18 and we could all kill each other on kof 2002

<small>[ April 14, 2003, 05:21 PM: Message edited by: KOF_FANATIK ]</small>

[Kid Aphex]

well, im coming in on the 14th, and leaving the 16th [hopefully]

we should make it close to the staples center. i dont want to drive around shitty LA much, or my head will explode

i vote we all just go out to lunch or something like that;

[Nismonotmugen]

Someone should hand out nametags with our usernames on them when we get there.

[Nismonotmugen]

isnt the staple center in shitty LA just like USC.

[BIG]

OK,great suggestions here!The LA get-together luncheon sounds great!Anyone else up for this?Just keep this thread updated,that way, we can begin the head count.Keep 'em comin',folks!

@KOF_FANATIK- The boat sounds great,but for the sake of members from out of state,we should keep it within reach.Great suggestion,by the way!

@Nismonotmugen- I will look into that! Name tags would be nice to have as a souvenior of this event!

[Nismonotmugen]

are we all going to roll in one or two cars(Suvs? vans?)or take or own cars. im not too familiar with LA anymore.

[neobuyer]

I will probably be there, but I'm not sure yet...
90% chance though....

[strider88]

YO! I will be working the show floor at E3, but if this meet up is that close to the show. near the staples center I will totally make time for a meet up! Word up! KOF_FANATIK!!! we gots to meet up! some place like a hotel bar/resturant or anything in that area is koo! totally keeped this BUMPED! till E3 weekend :)

If anyone wants some good eats before the show we can meet up there. Its only a few blocks away.

[NeoGeo2k2]

I'm down for E3 weekend as well.

[BIG]

Awesome! Let's get a show of hands for grub location! Pantry's and the Figueroa Hotel sonds good.Any other suggestions? Let's keep it within reach,though.

[KOF_FANATIK]

THE BOAT!!!!!!!!!!!! IM HUNGRY RIGHT NOW!!! lol jk the pantry? does it have kick ass food? what about we meet up on a saturday that weekend after e3 is over?

[KOF_FANATIK]

bump buttrock

[aria]

lemonflav:

I was thinking about the Pantry, the only problem (and it's a big one) is that it has a huge line and could never accomodate the number of people that you expect. Hotel Figueroa is nice, clean, and good food (as I remember a year ago).

True,especially the Hollywood location.My apartment is much larger than that! LOL!!

[NeoGeo2k2]

Neo Mike:
i try to avoid the 909 :) 909 aint so bad man, it's actully just some areas, much better than LA that's for sure..
Where i'm at Riverside it's really nice and quiet, and we have some beutifull woman out here, not as nice looking as Santa Monica, but still pretty close...
But like every were else, there's still some 909 areas that i would never touch...

shame

[Nismonotmugen]

I'm planning to make that trip twice a week when I start working at Chain-Younger this summer.

[CrackerMessiah]

Fucking amazing...

I spend a week in Texas (where segments of the population seem 'net deprived), and this thread goes from 50 posts to 126!?!?!? AMAZING!

But all amazement aside, E3 Saturday would suit rather well. Damned well.

And if you're in or near Santa Monica, then perhaps we can bust some carpool action with my non-working jammed tape deck.

@ Nismonotmugen: You a Bruin by chance?

[Flashmaster_Jahoon]

Where can I buy pcb boards in LA. All I know of is Video Connection and Mas Systems. I know there are LOTS of places with Pcb's in LA. Please post links and/or locations. Thanks.

[Loopz]

I think Thursday will be the best day for me personally. I'm there with my work clan, and Wednesday will be a bit busy. Lunch at a good place sounds great to me. Too bad Bobak will be a no-show.

Hotel Figueroa Lobby restuarant: People can meet, eat, and it helps people who want to meet, but can't get into the e3.

Oh, and REMEMBER TO BRING A DIGITAL CAMERA! I want to see pics for the photo album :)

[BIG]

[Freakit]

why do it E3 weekend if the whole intention of being there that weekend is to be at E3? loco

btw, i'm in Carlsbad, CA(about 2 hours south of LA) and I'm up for a meet.. just not on E3 weekend angry

[NeoGeo2k2]

Saturday in front of the SC sounds good to me.
I'm in Riverside/Corona so LA is only about 50min from me so i go there a lot, so any place in Downt would be fine with me, but i know a lot of people are familiar with the SC...

[KOF_FANATIK]

hey guys i am down for it that weekend! one quick question though? is torrance past los angeles and where is SC at? i am like 45 minutes away from LA so yeah lets do this!

also i am gonna go to camelot this weekend to play matrimelee on sunday evening if you see a Cleancut hispanic guy with a asian girlfriend thats me and say hi

[BIG]

E3 Saturday,around 11:00am,at the Staple Center's main entrance.Cool?

[KOF_FANATIK]

cool any1 else? :rolleyes:

[Flashmaster_Jahoon]

I will be in LA from May 8 through 12. I was just wondering if any of you want to meet up just for the sake of meeting some of you if you have the time. May 10 and 11 is a Sat. and Sun. If some of you have the time to meet up maybe we can and take it from there. I really want to see LA so maybe we can see when and where to meet. Later.

[Freakit]

well i'm gonna be at Arcade-Infinity in City Of Industry this coming thursday if anyone wants to meet me there annoyed

loco

[Flashmaster_Jahoon]

Actually the main reason I'm going to be in LA is to go to Arcade-Infinity so i can pick out the cab that I want. I haven't been to LA in 13 years so I also want to go around the city as it's been a long time. Anyway, if anyone wants to meet up between May 8 through 12 just let me know so we can set up a time and place to meet.

[Freakit]

it's all about the Super Magelo 2! buttrock

you can't go wrong with 50" of goodness infront of your face. drool

Freakit:

you can't go wrong with 50" of goodness infront of your face. drool How much is that? It's over a thousand, isn't it? I wasn't even thinking of that machine. I really have my eye on the Capcom Impress 29" and I want to see it to decide if that's what I really want. And it's like under $500.

<small>[ April 27, 2003, 02:55 AM: Message edited by: Flashmaster_Jahoon ]</small>

[Freakit]

well check em out here:
<a href="http://www.arcade-infinity.com/stock.htm" target="_blank">http://www.arcade-infinity.com/stock.htm</a>

as far as the 'under $500' price goes I really like the Egret 29 and the Super Neo 29 Candy.

but yeah, the Super Magelo 2 is $1,450.
although then again, as far as the prices on that webpage go, I'm sure since you're actually going to be showing up there in person.. they'd probably be willing to bargain with you.

[Flashmaster_Jahoon]

Well, they don't even have it in stock and they don't even have an image of it. But I don't know how up to date they are on that site with their inventory. Oh, well.

[Freakit]

well, their site hasn't been updated in a long time. that 'jamma cabinets' section has had the exact same models, stock, & prices for like 2 months now.

so really unless you're actually able to get ahold of them and get an updated stock list, then you'll just have to wait till you're able to see them in person.

[Flashmaster_Jahoon]

Yeah, I'll just wait till I get there and see what they have.

[KOF_FANATIK]

freakit do you know their telephone #?
i live lke 30 minutes from them plz give it to me thx :) also freakit do you own a route?

[Freakit]

PM sent

[Josh]

Freakit:
PM sent come now.

[BIG]

E3 Saturday,11:00am at the Staple Center!!!!

[BIG]

Must keep this one up!

[Josh]

It sounds good! So who exactly, seriously is going to show up?

[Zeekade Zarathos]

NEOryu:
It sounds good! So who exactly, seriously is going to show up? *sighs*

Me. Seriously.

For some reason I have the sneaking suspicion I'm going to walk in, and the place will be completely deserted, and no one else will show up, and I'll end up driving back home and taking a nap. Actually, that nap sounds pretty good right about now.

[Kid Aphex]

Well, I'm up for meeting anyone at E3.
Chances are, we're all going to be the first ones at the SNKbooth as SOON as the place opens. I know I'll be.

As for going somewhere afterwards? I dunno my way around LA at all; and the less I drive, the better...

If any of you indians want to get in touch with me, here's my cell

1.480.206.6840

this way, its on record just in case anyone needs it for the meet up.

peace,
ray

Okay, since it sounds like this planning is about, oh, half-assed you should really specify exactly what landmark in front of Staples you're going to meet by. The "main entrance" will confuse people because there's no less than THREE. (I suggest the entrance in front of the Fox Sports Skybox Restuarant since it's visible from almost the entire building -I don't recommend eating there, it probably won't be open and if it is it's too crowded for as many people as you plan -and expensive).

People are going to be late because of traffic concerns, the unwillingness to pay $20-40 to park close, and the confusing one-ways of downtown. Half the people in this thread will probably simply not show up.

You need to hash things out a little more before this turns into the B.I.G. FLOP :rolleyes:

I can't do Saturday either... It really should be during E3 if you ask me. Wed-Fri... if possible. But, regardless, I will be at the show, so anyone can see me hanging out at booth 3008 on day 1 wink

Here's some non-spoiler X2 trivia related to the E3:

That museum in the beginning was actually the lobby of the West Hall in the LA Convention Center (which is used in countless movies), keep that in mind when you check it out.
