Yes you can bring your own systems. the room is hugh, way to big for me to fill with what I got. However I may be short on TV's. I am acquiring as much as I can but we will see what I end up with. I may end up getting some of the guys I know local to bring in some classics as well if they are up to it.

the only rules I have is I don't care if they are moded systems but no burns or rom playing. If you want to do that do it in your room.

Maury I am pretty sure those girls are from Ikki tousen.

I picked up martimeele for the PS/2 as well. has some added characters and removed the ROTD characters. Also the gameplay is a bit different with the transofrmation moves.

Heh, just goes to show how much I know about anime. You're right! I just read the manga the other day and said "whoops". I thought it was Tenjo Tenge cause of the girl with the extensions on her head... a loser is me! :buttrock:

Thanx for everything Big Bruno:buttrock: . I had blast at the arcade room. I even won the NGBC Tournament only four people showed up, the thing is that I play most of the people that signed in for the tournament the night before and i kicked their butts maybe they were afraid to show up:drool_2: . Finally that Mugen thing shouldnt be allowed in such events, i thinks its a disgrace for true hardcore fighting gamers.:shame:

yeah sundays 10am tourney was a bust. but the rest went off pretty well. the KOF XI did pretty well. trying to hold tourney's on sunday is hard because I have to start to pack everything up.

Mugen will not be there next yeat, although it was fun to watch. but I did not set that up it was someone else. I am already working on next year. looking to double or triple the room. glad you made it out, hope you like the poster and KOF 2k kit.

Unless you were the hispanic gentleman on the 2nd player side, 5'9 and a thin build who used Robert and Terry, then you never played me. In addition, i overslept cause i didn't go to sleep till 6:30am sunday morning. Aside from that, congrats on getting yourself a 2k kit.

Yes Oni-con! What a fantastic con! I didn't think I would make it but I did and dammit, it was fookin' awesome! I was there during the Mugen fighting (tall, bald, black man that was shouting some of the characters to use?). Anyway, Bruno, it was a pleasure meeting you, that indeed it was! Hopefully, I can come to Houston next year for Oni-con cause I can't wait to hang out with more of my neo-geo.com bretheren!

Peace and love!
Maury V.
