North Georgia

Post by Circa2113 »

Hello...I'm located in Gainesville, GA and have small scale shmup/fighter meets every few weekends. I currently have 2 candy cabs setup for play and a couple of woody cabs under restoration.

My collection is rapidly growing and includes lots of cave, raizing and toaplan pcbs plus neo geo, cps2, naomi, etc.

We usually steer clear of the "hardcore" atmosphere and just chill out and play some games.

The next meet will probably be sometime in August. I'll update with more details as it gets closer.

That's awesome to see more people in the Ga area. I would like to come to a meet when you get something setup :D

I know this thread is a bit dated, and I'm sorry if it is bad taste to resurrect it. I'm living in Midtown and am regularly in Alpharetta/Buford/Lawrenceville. My selection is still pretty weak at the moment, but am working on getting more games to play. Anytime you Georgia people are around, feel free to shoot me a message!

Cheers.

We should definitely figure something out. I have a few friends who are also into shmups and would like to go to a meet since they have never been to one.

You guys set something up, and depending on when it is, I can bring some JAMMA games.

My place should be ready to host a meetup by the end of November. I have 2 cabs and a 360. It isn't large, but it is conveniently located to public transit and hot wings/burgers/sandwiches.

I just need a little more time to get my "move in" chores finished up =)

Added a couple more games to the collection. If someone has console shmups and a good stick, we should have a few gaming areas to play from!

Let me know if there is any interest for a meetup in midtown.

The best thing to do if you want to set up a meet is make a separate thread with a set date.

I'm in depending on the weekend of course.

Does anyone know how I may get a hold of Circa2112?

I have sent him a PM, but it has sat unread for quite some time now. Maybe an email address?

Please PM any info that you may have.

Thanks!

I live near Nashville, TN and would even consider driving down there for a nice meet if the day worked out and such. I don't know much people around here into shmups or arcades in general :(. I've got a Sega Blast City sitting in my room right now, tated and ready.

Otoko,

I've been working on my place for about a year now. Once it is ready to have some people over...I'll start a new thread. Hopefully when it is all said and done there will be 3 cabs and a tv for console/supergun games. Not to mention a liquor store 1 block away and a T'Mac 11 floors down!

How's Nashville? Sunday aside, it has been royally shitty down in Georgia lately.

Sounds good man! Sounds like good fun. Here in Nashville we have Game Galaxy arcade, they have a few candy cabs and such over there, good stuff. We are pretty lucky to have them. They don't have the best location, but its still an amazing place. Which makes me wonder why the arcade collector scene isn't big around here... I barely know anyone around here that does besides me.

Nashville has been great recently here, good weather, been driving the Jeep with the top down! Cold front coming in though...I'm ready for spring. I like how you have a liqour store close too lol.

Otoko,
Hit up The Score some time, there is one in Cool Springs. It is a gaming store that does parties, and as soon as I move up there (mid to the end of next year) we will start doing more shooters at their events.
