Next Tokyo Meet - TBA 2017
Re: Next Tokyo Meet - ??/??/201?
I realize it may be a pain in the ass, but is it possible to see those 2 Neo Geo 64 driving games in action? I'd really like to play those at least once in my life..

You might need to put down plastic sheeting to protect against the resulting mess but : Space Harrier would be awesome

Re: Next Tokyo Meet - ??/??/201?
Haven't had a chance to wire those up yet! I'll take a look at the wiring again and see if we can get some kind of rig working. I've left the driving stuff for last as it's the most complicated to put a universal setup together for. You've got different types of steering wheels (4 types for what I have) and gear shifters (around 6 flavors) to deal with and then there are the buttons.rancor wrote:I realize it may be a pain in the ass, but is it possible to see those 2 Neo Geo 64 driving games in action?

Space Harrier should be pretty straight forward, just need to make the harness as have the stick ready to go.

Oo_!! I'll have to stop by and check it out. Mikado over here in Takadanobaba would be nothing without the generous private fans-collectors
Re: Next Tokyo Meet - April 27th 2013 - Shou's Place - Roppo
27th then? I'll try to make it!

What time are things supposed to get started? The 27th is gonna be super busy for me but if it's in the evening/night there should be no problem.
And speaking of Mikado, the Darius cab that burst into flames is back in service. No more Darius Extra, but Ninja Warriors is still there.

They also have Tatsujin and Tatsujin Ou set up next to each other. There ia also some weird Jaleco Hori Shmup that went unreleased. Apparently one of the guys that worked on it back in the day loaned it out to Mikado.mdl wrote:What time are things supposed to get started?

As far as the staring time goes, evening is better. Anytime after 630 works but whatever works best for you guys is fine.
Road Blaster looks boss!

Let's do 6:30 then on the 27th.
Won't have the Hyper Neo driving games or Space Harrier ready. I just sent the latter out for the harness.
Any other requests?
Just got Desert Breaker (JP) working w/o battery if anyone wants to play it.
Don't have any other boards in the house at the moment other than my Hikaru stuff but it all requires wiring and UMK3 Juggernaut Hack.

Had a blast, Shou! Thanks again for having everyone over and for loaning me the degaussing wand. It worked like a charm, but there are some stubborn areas that it hasn't taken care of yet. I know you said not to over do it, so I'm going to break for a bit and reevaluate if I can live with the flaws or if I want to risk another go at it. I'll get it back to you as soon as golden week is over and postal service resumes. Oh, and I left my super play discs somewhere at your house. Seems I'm always leaving something or taking something from you.. haha.
The dishes your wife made last night were awesome as well, so please tell her thank you for those. Hopefully we can get together again soon before BKD is off for good.

Re: Next Tokyo Meet - April 27th 2013 - Shou's Place - Roppo
Thanks for a great Saturday night of arcade gaming Shou! The falafels were delicious as well. Tempest 3000 with the rotary mod plus Middle-Eastern food?! It don't get much better then that !!
Rancor: thanks for hooking it up with Crimson Clover. I played it all day until I took a break to walk to Mikado so I could play the arcade version. Actually it took me more then a few play throughs before I figured out that you can shoot your vulcan while simultaneously using the lock-on shot. That really helps things out.
All in all, it was great hanging out all of you fine folks. Hope to see y'all again real soon

I noticed the pack of DVDs right after you left but you guys had already went down the elevator. lol I'll safe keep them until you come over next.
The wife was happy you guys liked the food, I'm sure she'll make something for the next get together.
I'm going to be out of town for most of May from Friday so hopefully we can do something when I get back.

Next time, I'll get out Tatsujin-ou for mdl and we can do a tour of my storage shed, not much to see except a sea of bubblewrap though!
I'll try to have more of the deluxe games ready to go for next time. Maybe some 2Spicy?
