North Georgia
North Georgia
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.

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.

Been a while since went to a meet. Too bad I still can't host!

Re: North Georgia
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.

Re: North Georgia
You guys set something up, and depending on when it is, I can bring some JAMMA games.
Re: North Georgia
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 =)

Re: North Georgia
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.

Re: North Georgia
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!

Re: North Georgia
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.

Re: North Georgia
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.

Re: North Georgia
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.chronic1 wrote:Otoko,

Re: North Georgia
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.
