Summer 2023 DC, MD, VA Shmupmeet (July 22nd, 2023)

Post by Kiken »

I understood that the plan was to have another area shmupmeet this summer. I guess at this point we should plan for something after July 4th. Any suggestions?

My weekends in July are pretty open except for the weekend of the 29th.

I'm currently still a cab down with the chassis out for repair. Unless others want to I could still host; we mostly didn't use the cab after diagnosing the monitor issue last meet so I guess it being down doesn't really make a big difference.

I don't have cabs but I'd be up to host if folks are all right with that. Just would need a supergun for any arcade boards - I've got a couple TVs, a PVM, , a Mister, and pretty much any home console one could want to play games for (and a few that most folks wouldn't).

Kiken I'm glad you're feeling better!

I enjoyed both my times visiting you guys and would be happy to come up again! I can bring a SuperGun if needed as well as another round of obscure non-shumps to blast through!

I was informed that the 22nd would be a better date to hold the event. If everyone is cool with that, let's shoot for the 22nd.

PCBs ARE luggage friendly! That's how I get mine back!

Here's something they won't ship to the US. Someone I know has an EXA cab...

We'll be there.

I'll bring the following:
DeathSmiles
In The Hunt
Mushi Futari 1.5
PGM cart Ketsui
Twinkle Star Sprites

Should I also bring the AES and/or SuperGun?

My most recent AES pick up was SamSho 4.

I can bring a SuperGun, a MiSTer, and a selection of games like last time. If you bring your AES, I could bring XenoCrisis if people wanted.

I'll bring some more bad two player games we can suffer through!

Are we meeting at Kiken's house or StarCreator?

Any requests for weird games?

Kiken, are you brining the AES? Do you have 2 controllers?
