So you're willing to look at all our boards? Now that's a party!

Seriously though, I have some games that could use a look since my tech skills are zero.

Hello all.

I know I'm fairly new here, but I wouldn't mind attending if I'm welcome. I'm near Harrisburg, so it's not too much of a drive for me.

I'd be willing to bring games etc for us all to play as well. I plan on posting a collection thread shortly this afternoon, so feel free to point out anything that anyone might want to play.

I'm actually an electronics engineer. It's my job actually. I mainly do circuit design, mechanical design, and repair/troubleshooting. Anyway, if you have something broken, or something that needs recapped, bring it! I'd be happy to take a look at it, and even repair it. I'd bring some equipment and parts etc. Feel free to message me ahead of time if you need specific parts. Years ago I worked for an arcade, and repaired the machines for a living. So I've got the experience. I also do mods and consolizations. If anyone wants to check out some of my work, my Instagram account is @RetroTechRewind

So, I'd love to meet you folks, and play some Neo. Hopefully I won't get hazed too badly :lolz:

Anything you'd maybe want looked at/repaired, bring it with you! :) I love doing repairs etc, and don't mind helping at all.

As much as I appreciate the help in troubleshooting problems with games, I'm going to seriously die laughing if you have to look at 30+ boards.

You may be opening up a HUGE can of worms.

If repairs are needed, I'd be willing to take some of these boards home to repair, and mailing them back. Who knows. I'm not sure the number of folks that will be showing up :lolz: You're right though, with my luck, there would be a stack of 50 boards for me to look at :help:.

I help out a guy in my free time at a local arcade by repairing his machines. It keeps me sharp for these things. I also do these repairs and mods for folks on other forums and on my Instagram page. Long story short; If you want some insight on what might be wrong with something you have, I'd be happy to help.

Most of all, I'd like to come meet some folks, and enjoy some games. I'll bring a case of beer and some games for us to play. I'm looking forward to the event! Also have a metric ton of games to bring to trade if anyone is interested.

Just promise me you'll give my Moonwalker preferential treatment. It's had to sit out the last two TMG's. My Growl's never been turned on...:(.

Speaking of which- My Delawarean friend with the serious knack for puzzle genre fare has been notified of Bob's plans. Pern hopes to drop by this year for several hours, spare time permitting.

I'd be down. I have an AES conversion I could bring as well. Though I'm sure MVS would be easier.

How are we looking on consoles? Is there any that I could bring for us to play?

No need to bring Windjammers. I have two mvs carts.

We should be good on consoles, but if there is anything specific you would like to play just let me know and I'll let you know if I have it or not.

Would anyone be down to play some 5-player Bomberman/93/94 on TG16/PCE? I have the console and games, with a multitap. I'd need some more PCE controllers though if we used those. I think I have enough TG controllers. I have adapters to use both of course, but I figured for sanity's sake. I have an RGB/Component modded system as well if we want to play it on an HDTV.

I'm down (no controllers though). Do you have a Turbo Everdrive?

If more people are down for Bomberman, I'm happy to bring 5-player SBM4 for SFC and my multitap. It's the best non-PCE Bomberman I've played.

I put Bomberman Online on the DC GDEmu the other night thinking that might be fun. I think I have four controllers.

I was behind a DeL at a red light in Exton 2 nights ago. I almost jumped out and said 'Hi'...but I wasn't sure if it was you, and I didn't want to be mistaken for a carjacker, lol.

Have fun y'all.

I'm sorry to miss it.
