[68k]

I will be there, but without my wife!

 

[Darklighterx]

LEt's set up a meet time.

 

[68k]

I'll be there around 2PM. Look for the houndstooth Alabama cap!

 

[Darklighterx]

Going early at opening..I have some Famicom disks I need checked and unloaded.

Kalashnikov shirt on

Currently waiting for my friend who is taking the longest shower ever. Look for me in a Zelda hat, black Atari shirt and with a sony pictures bag.

A bit caught up in stuff so I'm not gonna make the drive (unless someone coming from my way wants to get me lol).

Someone take pics!

 

[Cornerb0y]

Had a great time, met some cool people (including Darklighterx), and beat some people (and lost a few matches) In Alpha 3 and Cap vs SNK 2.

Also Picked up a boxed C64 for $20.

Definitely enjoyed this more than CGF in Austin. I picked up a Commodore 1950 Multiscan monitor that was advertised as working fine. Got it home, and it is dead. Joke is on me for not testing on site!

I recall hearing someone say that they were "as bored as a dick".

He must not have much of a sex life.

 

[Darklighterx]

I had to duck out early as I had somethings come up, but had a few good matches of SSFII Turbo and Alpha 3.

No Neo setup in the game room. Would have been cool if they had the ports at least.

I offered my Astro City with MVS and games, but they were not interested.

Also, holy shit... I forgot how horrible Center Street is.

It was like taking the Camry offroad!

Wife and I had a lot of fun. Picked up a Virtual Boy with Mario Tennis and Teleroboxer. My eyes haven't melted yet, lol

Here is a good write-up on the event.

Also, see if you can spot 68k!

Agghhh! I would have totally been there for this. Oh well, next year for sure. We used to do Quakecon, and now we do Texas Pinball Festival. But this would make a great midyear show to counter that. Glad everyone had a good time.

Necro bump.

It's Sept. 20-21, Arlington Convention Center, http://retropalooza.net/
