I am in.

Sounds like fun. Hopefully I will have the real deal for some of these games.

I would do this, but I have none of the systems with me as of now. Plus, I think I'm too late.

I missed this thread, but I'd like to take part as well. Any chance for us stragglers who haven't been on the site all that much in the last week?

From this thread's first post:
Nemo wrote:Registration will end a week from today, and the tournament will begin the following Tuesday, Feb. 20th.
Therefore I understand the confusion. But I guess Nemo decided to expand the registration time until, Tuesday the 27th.

Are all of the games able to be emulated? I am thinking 'yes' since they are gonna be mostly 16 bit era, but just making sure.

You only get that kind of skill with a keyboard baby. Just you wait. That's going to be what he tells you he used. I know a fellow keyboard player a mile a way.

Heck yeah, keyboard's where it's at. You just can't get the awesome feeling of complete superiority and dominance with anything else. Just look at how many buttons there are! The power of the keyboard is unrivalled. Screw controllers, they cost too much money anyways.
