I’m not sure if I’m posting in the right place or not, so moderators, please move at your discretion.
Hey everyone. I recently flew to California from Virginia for an internship in San Jose. Outside of my internship, especially on weekends, I really have no one to hang out with besides my extended family. I was wondering if there were arcades around the Fremont/San Jose/Oakland area that have consistent weekend showings to play SF4 or 3S.
The arcade scene in where I live in Virginia…well there is no scene. I really would like to experience the scene around the area if you guys play regularly on weekends and such. My cousin told me there was an Arcade at San Jose State, the university he went to. Do any of you guys play there? Please let me know, I would love to be able to play SF4 and 3S out here with the locals. Much thanks.
cal state east bay has some stuff goin on im trying to start. thats in hayward.
some people hold get togethers at their house, some of their are invite only others are free to anyone who inquires.
san fran state has a cabinet as well as sjsu.
look out for some small tourneys here and there, you just missed a big one at fudruckers which coulda beena great place to network with all the local norcal people.
honestly just keep your eyes peeled on this pacific north subforum and dont be afraid to show up to free for all stuff. im pretty new myself to the scene but have found that most everyone here is really cool and is embraceful of new faces.
Hey, thanks for the response. Hayward isn’t too far from where I’m residing right now. Kinda a shame that I missed the fudruckers tourney as I would have attended if I had found out earlier. But yeah, I’m definitely trying to scour this subforum for some potential SF4 hangouts. I kinda figured this thread was a little generic with it’s title, but there are a lot of areas around me that I’m not too familiar with so I’m not sure how close these events are to me. Anyways, hopefully I’ll get to meet some of you guys in the next week or two.
SJSU has 3S. However, the machines may not be there because of anime expo but it’s already over so they should be back soon. However, the SJSU arcade is dead during the summer and tends to be more active during the actual school year. For arcades there’s MGL and SVGL but they don’t have SF4 only 3S. I don’t know if you care for T6BR or BlazBlue but they both have those too.
Well I mean, the reason I ask this is to see if there are actual like…group gatherings at arcades over the summer. I definitely don’t want to play by myself. Just wondering if there is a consistent group of friends playing at an arcade or something that wouldn’t mind a fresh face, that’s all.
