im all over house of the dead
i know i keep saying this but ill be there next time.
I’ll be in Arlington this week for the 24th through the 31st for training, I saw about the Ranbat tomorrow, but my flight will probably get into late for me to make that, and I don’t have a PS3 stick (all our stuff down here is on 360)
Is there anything else going in the Arlington area this next week, casuals whatnot? Work ends pretty late for us too, probably around 7:30 or 8:00 every night
I’ll post this in the MD/VA thread too
I’m out this weekend, I’ve got a belated B-day party of a friend’s on saturday, then sunday I’ve got plans with some friends I haven’t seen in months.
The weekend after I’m busy saturday (the 4th?) but could more than likely do something that friday or sunday.
I’ll chip in for booze for the fridge next time.
The arcade is currently in pieces. I installed a hyper neo geo 64 in one of the neo cabs, for samurai shodown 64 (the first one). The Naomi Uni (GG’s cab) is currently torn a part having guns and ir array installed for the house of the dead 2.
I’ll move GG to another cab, which won’t have grounding issues
And I’m driving up to New York and Connecticut on Thursday with a friend to get some VGA tube monitors to fix up the blast city cabs in the living room. I’m only keeping one blast city, as I don’t have room for both. My buddy J (who’s repairing them with me) is buying the other.
I just ordered The Maze of the Kings and Confidential Mission, two other gun shooters I can swap with house of the dead. I might try and track down a Ninja Assault as well, just found out it was a naomi game.
even got a new chasis for the uni, hopefully that scrolling white fuzz line will go away.
I remember confidential mission. never bothered to play it though.
you should seriously pick up Area 51 for shits and giggles.
Nice additions. I’ve got Buriki One, Asra Zanmaden, and Garou Densetsu Wild Ambition if you ever wanted to give those a spin on the HNG64 and haven’t already.
Whoa, you’ve got Buriki One? I’ve wanted to play that for years!
yea i’ve been wanting to play Buruki one myself.
anything going on this saturday? been a lil to long since I was there.
If you need help with anything Bobby let me know. I have Sat-mon off and no plans on going to NY this time.
Area 51 is different hardware, otherwise i would. Area 51 is amazing. Never reload and shoot the lights
I’ve got all four fighters, sam sho 64 is by far my favorite. Buriki is just plain cool though.
Being drunk saturday, i’m free sunday if you guys are.
Beer pong saturday?
Sunday would be awesome! Looking to bring some of my team mates with me again.
what times would be good to show up?
considering I’ll be drunk saturday, no earlier than 1 or 2pm.
so things are happening sunday now? or am I just lost.
Just for this weekend, I’m still drained from the 14 hour trip to Connecticut and back on Thursday. Next week, back to Saturday.
The guy in new york bailed and didn’t have any monitors for us, but I found a local one for 20 bucks that might work, which is much cheaper. The arcade room is still torn apart, and I’ll put it back together today. HotD2 won’t be installed until next weekend, I need a different drill bit to safely install the IR sensors.
I am purchasing two more cave shooters next week, Dangun Feveron and Muchi Muchi Pork. I also have a mahjong control panel on its way from japan. Don’t laugh, arcade mahjong is fun as shit. If the monitor I’m picking up on Monday works out, the blast city will be ready and upstairs as well (CvS2’s new home).
I’m hoping by next weekend the room will have house of the dead 2 and the blast city upstairs. I’m just trying to help my friend Justin (who’s sold me 8/12 of my cabs) get his collection going again. We’re picking up a blue mini cute to replace the yellow one (he really wants his yellow mini back, and I don’t blame him, he drove like 48 hours straight in between work shifts to get it) next week, so hopefully we’ll have time to get everything else done as well.
Also, shin, you’re maining rock now? Good choice actually, tons o gimmicks.
Rock was in my original N-Groove team before I started playing CvS2 all serious again. Only reason I haven’t been playing him a lot is cause i’m too fixed with Ryu most of the time.
now i’m not all that sure what to do today.
Mahjong is very fun but most of those arcade games are cheap as hell (AI gets reach in 2 turns…). Looking forward to seeing what you might get for that panel.
Also, I just realized the other day while sorting out my boxes that you’re the one who sold me a Sengoku 3 kit a couple years back (along with Magician Lord, which I had to get the MVS version after being sick of the NGCD version’s sound inaccuracies). Found that sort of interesting. Anyway, get some rest, man.
I got pretty fucking destroyed yesterday. I need to get the vids off of strogg.
Yeah I remember selling you a kit a while back, since when I first saw you here I recognized the name. I know most arcade mahjong’s will kick my butt pretty fast. Was that the sengoku 3 kit that had the poster in it? That might have been one of my first kits.
Have no idea who’s coming today, but call me when you’re here I might be in the shower or trying to cure a hangover.
Edit: Thanks fellas for coming!
Bobby’s World is now officially UNDER CONSTRUCTION!!! I have a ton of work to do and really need to get it done on my free days than just hanging out. I need to get hotd2 working, the blast city cab fixed up, move CvS2 and guilty gear, and get money together for muchi pork. My buddy Jeff dropped off a radiant silvergun and STV motherboard (which I need for mahjong).
I threw out my back picking up a 27" tube tv from craig’s list, so I’m in pain (slowing everything down). I need to also send some CPS-2 carts to get phoenixed. I just have a lot of shit to do in general to get the room finished.
