Texas Rollcall!

[DanAdamKOF]

Newbz unite! I wanna goto the party! Is it gonna be a sasuage fest? I have a 2 slot that I can bring, I live in irving. Also I wanna be apart of the TX crew. Is there initiation? If so... not the face.

Haha yes probably a sausage fest.... Bring whatever you're comfortable bringing, though I have a 2-slot and ghetto supergun and RGB TV (two actually) of my own, you may want to bring some carts though. I actually could use one more NeoGeo stick, I keep putting off adding a NeoGeo port to some sticks I have so I only have the one old-style stick to plug directly into my 2-slot, so anyone that brings a second one would be helping out a lot.

Kinda fell through, so I might go to San Antonio
or stay home for the weekend depending on what comes up.
Don't think I'll be coming up to dallas though. :sad face:

Well hopefully I'll be in Austin sometime soon.

Well hopefully I'll be in Austin sometime soon.

You should.
I got an iron skillet.
everything that's cooked on it tastes delicious.
We'll cook bacon related things.

 

[DanAdamKOF]

I'll have the Facebook event up later today. Send me a PM if you haven't added me on Facebook and want an invite (68k and NeoSpaceGhost in particular). It's on August 3rd, from 4pm-1am (roughly), and I'm near 75 and Bush Turnpike.

I realllly dunno if I can stomach more Austin-style bacon...

Adam, anything in particular you'd like to play from the 68k stash?

I have a small collection of PCBs, console stuff, X68000 stuff, Neo, etc...

I have a Neo-compatible joystick and CD pad that I can bring. I use those with the X68

If you're willing to bring the whole shebang, Chorensha and ТЕТРИС SEMIPRO-68k (Shimizu Tetris) for sure, anything else is up to you, but personally I'd like to check out some of its shmups and puzzlers. Do you have a monitor you can bring? Or if you have everything needed to hook it up to a PVM 2950 we could use that. Or if it has composite or whatever then we could just use that, I just have the impression it only does RGB.

 

[68k]

It's pretty portable. I have a compact flash HDD loaded with games and goodies. If you have a VGA CRT monitor, that will be good. It won't work with the PVM unfortunately.

If not, I have a little 13" VGA monitor I can bring.

 

[DanAdamKOF]

I don't really have a spare VGA CRT since mine will be in use on my desktop.

 

[DanAdamKOF]

Kept forgetting to bring this up, 68k could you bring one of your FDS drive belts? Or if it's not too much to ask, two, if you have many?

 

[68k]

I'll see if I can find them and dig one out. I've come across them since I moved to Fort Worth, so there is hope!

 

[DanAdamKOF]

Are your PCBs all straight JAMMA with mono sound, or anything special to take care of?

 

[68k]

Nope, nothing special, just pure JAMMA!

 

[DanAdamKOF]

I'm gonna try and find some cheapo RCA cables at a thrift store near me to hack up a hardwired video and audio connection for the PVM, if not I'll tear apart some console composite cords (I must have 10 for the PSX alone). I'll save the controllers for last, I dunno if I'll get off my ass and visit Tanner's or not.

 

[68k]

Just let me know! The PCBs can attend another time if you don't get to it before Saturday.

 

[DanAdamKOF]

It's cool, I've been needing to do this, I can't play my MVS on my PVM otherwise and I have a System 573 board that I can't really troubleshoot without any controller input (well you can tap a wire between ground and whatever button on the JAMMA edge but that's such a pain). (Hopefully if that 573 gets up and running, I can put these HAPP dome buttons to use and we can have Bishibashi at a future gamenight (and maybe really old DDR mixes played on a controller))

READY CAPTAIN

 

[NeoSpaceGhost]

I had a great time hosting Sorry about the PMs Neospaceghost, I hadn't thought of the new account restrictions, send an email if you ever need to get in touch (danadamkofATbemanisoDOTws).

 

[68k]

I didn't know there was a universal Beatmania "stance" until Saturday.

 

[DanAdamKOF]

It's more exaggerated on an actual machine. Really goofy. Of course if you're of typical Japanese height, no need to stance it.

 

[NeoSpaceGhost]

Lol, I need to stance my neo geo too. I wish i knew some place or some one in the df dub to get it serviced. Because its really dim lately.

 

[DanAdamKOF]

Ghost, if you ever end up in the Richardson/Plano area and want to come by, hit me up.

 

[DanAdamKOF]

Anyone going to Anime Fest? It's at the Sheraton Dallas Hotel from Friday Aug 30th - Monday Sept 2nd.

I'll be there, with some beatmania stuff in the gameroom. Can't really lug my Neo setup as it's RGB only and therefore tethered to my 110lb CRT, sorry y'all. If you want my number to meet up or whatever, send a PM.
