Still a go for next week. I got my 360 JAMMA adapter working again too 8)

I'll PM directions later in the week for those that can make it. I'll have snacks, beverages, beer, etc, but feel free to bring more if you want.

As I know at least twalden knows, I'll be in Denver from April 17-20 with my evenings almost totally free. I'd be up for some hangings out.

Anytime after 2PM is good.

I'm genuinely excited. 8)
My wife is getting her hair cut which sometimes runs long so I might be looking at a 3:00 arrival.

I'll be here! Gonna pick up some beer and possibly some other things to eat. Can't wait.

Just put in a ton of practice hours so I don't look like a complete scrub.

Turns out I couldn't find a place to stay -- gonna have to flake on this one too. Sorry again, after all the buildup :(

Take pictures of that Futari for me.

EDIT: Oh god, now I have no idea what to do with this other vagina cake I bought from rancor.

Missed your post. I went to pinball showdown last Saturday for a few hours. It was fun. Played the hell out of the Street Fighter 2 pin.

I headed over there on Sunday with Crafty Mech. We had a blast too!

My favorite is one I used to play in college all the time, Fish Tales.
I was really hopping there would be a virtual pin there because I really want to try one. I guess that isn't the right scene for that kind of thing.

Id be interested in attending the next one, would be nice to meet up with some local STG fans. Recently went to the 2up hoping to get to play something but unfortunately all they had there was 1943. It was great fun, but was hoping to get to see something cave or raizing.

I'm definitely interested in attending the next meet-up!

PS - Thought I should mention what I'm playing right now. I'm an old school Shmup guy, but have recently been trying out the "modern titles". Currently playing Strikers 1945 II and Raiden II boards, and the Raiden Fighters series on the Xbox. I'm tempted to look for a Raiden Fighters 2 Jet board, that is my favorite out of the Fighters series on the xBox disc.

October is wide open for me!

For September, I'm out of town the weekend of the 27th-29th.

twalden: Kevin has told me you have quite the pcb collection, so I'm not sure I have any boards you don't, but here is my Shmup list: Strikers 1945 I & II, Raiden, Raiden II, Raiden Fighters Jet, UN Squadron, Aerofighters, and 1943.
