If there's any meet going on between now and January 12th, I will probably find a way to come :wink:

Hi everyone, my wife just had our first child (baby girl). So unfortunately I won't be able to host any meets at my place for awhile since the garage is packed with crap while we make room for the baby in our guest room. That said, having Myung host at Gamecenter sounds like a great idea, although I doubt I'd have time to attend this time around. :(

Congrats and good luck, Dave!

I have no plans in the near future, so I'm up for a shmupmeet. Since the last one, I have cleared these games:
  1. Battle Garegga with the Golden Bat
  2. Armed Police Batrider with Tag-T(B)x3, minimum starting rank, and Blunt as an extra stage 5 boss by accident
I can try to demonstrate those if anyone brings in either game, but I'll need some extra equipment for Batrider: a reset button (to start at min. rank quickly) and a button for Start+A (to set my shot rate at #60). Just give me a date, and I'll start working off the rust. :)

Best of wishes with your new child, Dave.

As for the meet: Seeing as vert-monitor 360 cabs are a given for just about any GC meet, perhaps I can bring my copy of Eschatos, if no one else is. (TOTALLY not so I can evangelize JSS and Cardinal Sins. Nope. ;) )

Great news Dave! Welcome to the club. I believe you will find a new appreciation for console ports and emulators. The Pause Button!

There will be an all-Eschatos shmupmeet one of these days, I just know it.

Also, congratulations on your child, Dave K.! Best of luck to you, and may she grow up to see the awesomeness that lies packed in the garage :o

My apologies for bumping this thread just to ask this, but does anyone know if Ibara is still set up at Gamecenter?

I'm in the Bay Area unexpectedly for a couple days, and was wondering if I should check it out. I haven't made it over there yet. If anyone wants to meet up that'd be pretty sweet too, actually.

Also, belated congratulations to Dave!

I'd check out the cool Game Center place as it's an interesting arcade based out of San Mateo. If you fancy playing the original Sega Model 2 version of Virtua On, it's there also. You can even buy cool Japanese arcade joysticks and push buttons as well at the front desk.

Ibara is still set up, and it's still on free play. It was awesome.
