Cave Carnival in France (october 2015 the 10th)

Post by Radigo »

Hi there !

The french website shmup.com is proud to announce the upcoming event "Cave Carnival" thanks to CoinOp Legacy !! Woohoo !

Image
Tadaaam

For the 1st time in France, shmup addicts can meet in the middle of no less than 50 arcade cabinets, half of them dedicated to their favorite genre.

Around 15 cabs will be installed with Cave titles, some rarities like Ibara Kuro Black Label, DDP SaiDaiOuJou, Akai Katana, MushihimeSama Futari Black Label, Dangun Feveron, ESP Ra. De. or Guwange Blue Label.

In addition to the Cave festa, CoinOp offers the opportunity to play dedicated cabs like Sagaia (Darius 2), or Lost Worlds (with rotary stick/buttonish thing), Defender, Tempest, Xevious, Asteroïd Deluxe and other rarities like Shmup Skill Test, After Burner 2, Space Harrier or Thunder Blade.

During the event, Mld and Yami9999 will make the show, running Progear no Arashi and ESP Ra. De. live.

A contest will also be organized during the event, on a mystery Cave shmup, with prizes.

This unique night will happen on October the 10th starting from 6PM. You can book a place to attend the event online (subscriptions are opened until October the 4th). The fees are 15 euros if you pay online, 20 on location.

CoinOp Legacy arcade is located in the south of Paris in Vitry-sur-Seine (access by local train), details will be mailed if you subscribe a couple of days before the event (but it's safe and real, I've been there, trust me, and it's awesome).

The place is in the middle of a industrial district, so food and drinks are sold inside the arcade (prepare some cash).

More info (in french) there

Looks great. I cannot get to Paris in time.
I have told a developer mate of mine based in Paris about it and I hope he can attend instead.

Awesome working in getting this organised.

I hope you blokes have a good time tomorrow.

Cave Carnival was great ! Lots of machines with all the Cave games you could dream of, and a very friendly Coin Op crew !
Anyone visiting Paris when they organize an event should come 8)

The Mushihime Sama Ultra contest was a bit too much for "normal" or untrained players to enjoy, but apart from that, I had a very good evening (and good catering too !).
