Fall 2023 MD/VA/DC area Shmupmeet (11/4/23)

Post by Kiken »

So how about one last meet before the year is through? Potential dates would be 10/28, 11/4 and 11/11.

How are everyone's calendars looking?

11/4 works best for me, since I'll already be off work that day for a morning obligation.

See everyone at my place next week! DDR is currently out of commission while I have the monitor chassis out getting recapped but the Blast's monitor is working now.

Hey, let me know what your travel plans are if you're making it down!

Any requests for rare, unusual, or bad games?

So I’ve been sort of out of the shmup game for a while, but would like to get back into it.

I currently live in Richmond, so I’m not “too” far out from this region and might be up for a future meetup. I’ve got an easily accessible Japanese Xbox 360 with Mushihimesama Futari, ESP Galuda II, and Death Smiles. Also less accessible in a random box I’ll need to find is a Supergun with 2 or 3 older Psikyo PCBs that I also got in Japan.

It was a good time and there is a member who drives up from Richmond, so maybe you guys could carpool.

I missed this. I live in MD and would love to go to a shmupmeet. I just recently beat Aka to Blue on mobile.

Found my old password finally for this account, thank god.

Anyone else going to Magfest? I'm bringing some gear for the museum space (neo geo, Atari platforms, Bally Arcade, ZX Spectrum) so if ya'll got some shmup requests let me know and I'll do my best to fill the gap.

I'll be there, but we should probably make another thread for that...
