Not Long to go - anyone attending in for trading MVS? I have 2 games that I got that don't see as much play as they should by a gamer - so I'm open to trades on Mutation Nation and Bang Bead.

The wife's birthday is January 30th, so it's theoretically possible she'd want to celebrate on that saturday. :) But I'm pretty sure it will be fine, I'll persuade her to party on the 30th like it should be. :)

Yeah, looks like this happened, sorry. Got other plans that weekend, but you guys game on.

Seriously though, hope she has a fun party and we'll see you next time round :) And we might stream some stuff so you could see what's going on :P

Meeting is "soon", so few things to decide. First the food, we can order pizza but I'm gonna make something and ask RockstarRunner do make his famous hot onion rings. Are you ok with ciabattas with home made pulled pork, salad etc? I could also buy potato salad. Easy to eat, even while playing.

The other thing is the equipment. I have cmvses, cdz, cab, st-v, cps2, two crts (if RR remebers to bring the remote) etc. But I have limited number of controllers. I fixed two ngcd controllers, but they lack the proper feeling. So bring your favorite controller. I also have 2 extension cables that won't work with deep sockets.

I'm also preparing modules (stereo audio + rgbs with pots to scart) and jamma harness for quick consolization of mv-1b if someberry has need for them...

Pulled Pork all night long baby!
I'll bring my UberShtick with me, and also the NGDevTeam releases for DC to sell/trade if anyone is interested.
I won't forget the B&O remote :D Looking forward to the meet !!!

Thank you very much - someberry is happy.

As for Food I eat almost everything. (Don't really like innards and lamb that much, apart from that I'm not really selective)

Need to dig out my swimming goggles for all those onions I will need to deal with, making those Heart-Attack Onion Rings is dangerous :D

Met old friend, who has been collector for decades, at retro game flea-market and after I trade him one MVS with some modifications for Dreamcast, he decided to join the meeting. He used to have MVS and lots of games but sold them few years back and left only top loader and front loader cd systems. So seven people currently coming.

Also my wife has some sort of girls night same time. Maybe we can get them to join the gaming :keke:If they dare to visit the man cave.

IMPORTANT!!!!!!

We can start after 2pm Saturday, so people can drive here while there is some daylight.

I have to hold morning kickboxing training and probably do some last minute shopping, but people arriving early can setup systems and have fun while I prepare food etc.

If possible, inform me the time you are going to arrive, so I can schedule things.

Just tell me when to be at the railway station and I'll work around that - I'm in Helsinki at that time anyways. Tämä on loistava!

I´m still trying to decide whether to use the car or to catch a train instead.

If I would come by train then I would likely be at the tikkurila station at 13:37 on saturday and would hope that someone could get me from there all the way to the miisalo mansion :)

So, there is at least one other gamer popping by - There is going to be 8-10 visitors for sure. There is lots of snow here and we can maybe pack 4 cars into our parking space (including my egomobile). But our neighbors are coming in for the girls night that my wife is holding and probably we can leave 1-2 cars there too if needed.

About the schedule, I'm trying to get things ready by saturday 15:00. I still need to go and buy more some beer and hard lemonade and make another batch of this

and buy the ciabattas etc.

But its getting exciting....


Does everyone still have my address and phone number?
