He works security for the Adult Con? Let him sneak us in!!!
Thanks for keeping the place open till late again Don. I was surprised how many people were there when I came in @ 11 yesterday! It was great playing against the regulars and some new peeps, and I look forward to seeing everyoneās progress next week!
ā¦By that end, i better start perfecting my combosā¦
Yesterday was fun. It was bigger than the last time I went. And It was pretty cool seeing someone use the same team( Ammy/Hulk/Sent) as me but seeing it used in a different way. I thought it was coool how new guys came and they were pretty good. Hope to see you guys more often
He probably could, he was talking about doing it if he got the chance. But, he needs the money, so I wonāt put him at risk, and, to be honest, my interest is purrty low. If this was like two years ago, COMPLETELY different story.
It was our pleasure to visit your arcade Don.
We both had a good time and enjoyed your hospitality and the competition.
Hope to make it out there sometime soon again!
I seriously question the claims that people turn out to play pacman ;p
Letās get a strong showing for Evo this year Gents!
I will money match everyone 5 bux a week to make my evo trip money!
ā¦ KIDDING. Or am I.
If youāre willing to money match, Iāll be more than happy to oblige.
Cool to know that Iām not the only weirdo who collects arcade cabinets lol. But there is also the Keystone II guy up north in San Jose and a guy from New Mexico PMāed me and showed me his collection.
Heās from a different region and era. In So Cal we love fighting games. He likes the games from the 70ās and 80ās. This is right before SFII dominated the world. Those games are awesome. The games from the 70ās and 80ās are actually more expensive then the 90ās fighters. Mainly because theyāre dedicated machines. Dedicated machines means that the cabinet is specifically made for that game. Fighting games, especially Capcom fighting games with the six button layout, are easy to put into other machines. So collecting for me is a little easier then that guy. But I always liked arcade games better then console games. When they release an old classic arcade game on console, it feels so cheapened. Thereās more of a thrill playing on the machine then anything else. I actually donāt own any other game on my PS3 or Xbox360 besides Marvel 3, Street Fighter IV, and Tekken 6 lol.
If I could, Iād collect from that era as well. I do want to own Arkanoid, Punch Out, Super Punch Out, Ms. Pacman, Double Dragon, Double Dragon 2, Final Fight, Bad Dudes, and VS Super Mario Bros. Rolling Thunder is a really good game. I would really love to own Super Mario Bros in itās cabinet version (VS Super Mario Bros). It would be cool because so many people played Mario growing up. It would be cool if people could beat the game on one quarter.
Hey is Initial D 3 a game worth owning? I mean in the classic sense. I know when it comes to racing games itās always the latest game that is the game that always gets played.
Iāll take you on,
ā kiddingā¦ or AM I?
Nice insight, i can imagine how much work it took to put that together
if you get a racing game make sure its in a pair!
and initial D 5 sucks, and 6 isnt out yet
so 3/4 is cool
Fuck this guy ^
I will be making an attempt to show up this Friday. I donāt play Marvel too much but I know a little so Iāll mostly be playing 3s and marvel 2.
^ Youāre still alive?
I donāt really know how to answer that question. People have been spending a lot of time trying to convince me that Iām dead. All in all, yes, I am still alive. Hi!
Lenin never dies. He just goes back under his bridge when we donāt see him for a while.
JAY KAY. Need more 3S love here.
Hey Lenin,
You donāt play MVC3? A lot of guys who I know who were good at MVC2 are now good at MVC3. Actually the guys who were good at MVC2 at my place are now the best guys at MVC3 at my place.
What donāt you like about MVC3? Assuming you donāt like MVC3.
fixed that for you
