Return of the DC/MD/VA Shmupmeet (March 25)
For various reasons we've taken a break but seems like we are probably good to go to meet again soon. I have a second candy now, a New Net City, that should be ready to go and I have that new exA Touhou game that there were so many of at MAGFest.
I'm available on either the first or last weekend of March - let me know which day works better and we'll go with that?

Hey, I'm up for either and am eager to meet some of you in person...
I can bring some games from my collection as we get closer. Finally got a Gunbird thanks to Kiken!

Would April 1 work?
Re: Return of the DC/MD/VA Shmupmeet (March 25 or April 1)
I *might* be hitting up Midwest Gaming Classic that weekend, but if I end up not going last weekend of March/April 1 would be fine on my end!

Nailing down March 25, as that seems to be the date with the least conflicts. See you then!
If you haven't been here before or need a reminder on how to get here shoot me a PM.

Hey all! We're still on for next week!
Please contact me if you need my address - it hasn't changed since last time!
Have a last minute addition to my rec room on its way, not sure if it'll be here in time though...
Also, I now have a cat, though she normally doesn't come down to the rec room. I'll try to keep allergens to a minimum!

Guys (gals?) I'm still in and will be there around 3ish.
I have a large collection of games, to include brawlers. Are there any requests?

I should be able to come through early on for a few hours! I've got a Mister and a variety of old consoles if anyone has requests. At minimum I'll probably have my Dreamcast with me just due to my evening plans.
Oh I can also bring along a copy of my upcoming book in case anyone wants to flip through it!

At the moment I have one CRT set aside for consoles and three CRT candies (JVS in Tate and JAMMA in any orientation). My collection is fairly Cave-centric, I have the three ESP titles, DDP DOJ, Progear, exA SDOJ and Touhou (A&B needs to be sent in for repair) and a few other odds and ends.

Re: Return of the DC/MD/VA Shmupmeet (March 25)
ok, finally got spoons to do things
these are all the photos I took bc Kiken was indisposed and wanted at least to live vicariously through me lol (also, Kiken, you can throw pics at Minzoku#7264 instead of Ash all the time haha, that's one I accidentally made when I was trying to set up the one account)

(there are also cat photos but I'll only post those by request)

I'm just saying we need a session with that Dino Rex and Martial Champion on the roster!
Very fun time seeing ya'll. I'll add that I'm happy to host one of these things at my place sometime - don't have any arcade cabs but I do have a pretty good array of console setups and a Mister.

Re: Return of the DC/MD/VA Shmupmeet (March 25)
Thanks for coming out everyone! I took a few pics but looks like we're pretty covered on that front already.
Going to be down for a couple months probably as I get some things sent out for repairs/updates but certainly up for hosting again when things are ready.

Set it up! I'll bring both Dino Rex and MC and a Supergun, so as long as you have a TV and a yearning for terrible fighters, we can do it!yuberus wrote:I'm just saying we need a session with that Dino Rex and Martial Champion on the roster!

I'm sure there are a couple more bad ones as well, maybe a few rounds of Blood Warrior?

That Blast monitor looks better in the pics! By chance, did it look better with a PCB other than an F3?StarCreator wrote:Thanks for coming out everyone! I took a few pics but looks like we're pretty covered on that front already.

I'll keep that in mind! April's busy but I may be able to host something mid-May or into June, we'll see.XtraSmiley wrote:Set it up!

Ironically, in the new MAME update that just went out, Gamshara now is supported!
