I went to alpha station yesterday and I liked that place, they had 2 3s versus city cabs and i think 2 cvs2 cabs. 50 yen for 3 outta 5 rounds. Thats the best deal ive seen so far. There was some good comp, I played a damn good yun.
I gotsta find other stuff to do other than just hit up game centers. IparryU, Its wednesday, 3:30 right now, do you wanna meet up sometime soon? I’m free whenever, i could meet you at some game center. PM me when ur available. I dunno what im gonna do today, i might just end up goin out to eat and playin at the local game centers.
Mitch Hedberg is dope. RIP
What exactly is this? Is it just like an open party for anyone who wants to go?
kaikan is 50 yen too, but i wll goto alpha zone to see whats up sometime. just off of yamanote if i do believe
that party hella expencive(no offence). i know a place in shibuya (really close to kai kan too) that is 2000Y from 2400 to 0500 nomihodai (all you can get drunk) but wid no DJ
i will go there saturday with my GF and some other friends.
Shekeib: i will be at kai kan in shibuya on satruday from 1200 to 1500.
if i got a day off from my part time job, i will let you know so we can meet up and i will show you about and what not. let me know if you down for saturday.
alpha station is huge so its cool for the variety of games but the comp is really random and compared to my local arcade at takadanobaba, there really arent that many ppl who go there. just lotsa hs kids who like to play gundam games. yea, theres every capcom game but i havent really seen lines waiting to play whereas here in baba or in kaikan, theres always ppl waiting at peak hours.
anyways, to be honest, my party is geared towards ppl who ARENT lookin to fuck n get fucked up. our club’s vision is to change roppongi’s bad rep so the higher price keeps out the dirty gaijin. our parties are good for networking and socializing and if ur lucky, you’ll land a rich hottie. but if u guys are really strapped for cash, after 12 its regular admission so itll be 1500 and u get 1 drink… which is actually lower than the standard roppongi pricing.
im there every weekend so itd be cool if u guys dropped by. btw, my club [odeon] is featured in the job-finder section of metropolis this week. im in the pic on the right posing like a bartender, haha…
maybe i’ll throw an srk party or something when all the sbo guys come over…
Ok not to trash on you dude, but higher prices don’t do shit for keeping dirty gaijin out. It is fucking roppongi. And landing a rich hottie? come the fuck on. We are talking about Roppongi here. You know, Gas Panic, people fucking in toliets, whores and nijerians line the streets annoying the fuck out of you constantly.
On another note I have a date this weekend who wants to go drinking in Roppongi on Saturday. If you guys have a decent selection of beer I may RSVP. I will see. This girl seems pretty down to earth so I don’t want to take her to any slutty ass cluster fuck. Although every bar on Saturday in Roppongi is for sure. It would be nice just to support SRK in some fashion I guess. I may check it out.
no offense taken, no worries. thats exactly what im talkin about tho, roppongi has the worst rep and our club is trying to reverse that. idealistic as it may be, thats what we’re aiming for [read the article in metropolis].
don’t get me wrong, i know a lotta our customers use our place as the pre-game before they go on the prowl. but for real, our customers are def a level above the roppongi trash. not all, obviously, but a majority of our ppl dont wanna fuck in a toilet, haha. for real tho, whats wrong with goin out just to have a good time? and as for rich hottie, yea, being that roppongi hills is 5 min away we do get a lotta the ibanking crowd. cuz they know we’re not a roppongi shithole.
funnily enough, we actually do have a dude from nigeria who does flyering for us. but hes cool. guys gotta earn a living, y’kno. anyways, the drink menu is up on the site, so u decide: http://www.odeon-bar.com and we recently added red stripe and some mexican dark beer.
I think me and my brother were gonna try to go to KSKs’ gamers vision in yokohama on saturday, im not sure yet though, i’ll find out by the afternoon today.
ya word on that shit. dirty gaijin have moeny too, hence the reason why they could buy a 1000USD ticket to japan for one month and stay in a hotel… about the fuckin in the toilets, the first time i fucked in a toilet in japan was with some rich girl… so ya, prices dont do shit but get you more richer, dirty gaijin that will beat the shit out of people and fuck j-girls in the hed.
and them damn nigerians tryin to get you to goto their strip clubs/whore houses are sooooooooo fuckin annoying. fuck them masuses too, tricky bitches…
Actually beer selection is good and the 500Y off for guest list is doable. It’s untill midnight which means no last train. I’ll have to check with my girl if she is cool with that. If so I’ll try and make it out.
word. guest list is for friday only tho. for sat there might be a salsa event til 12, ill find out. just gimme a name for the guest list. and make sure u drop by the dj booth, we’ll do some shots. btw, party continues til 8am…
i work in rhills so your place is actually pretty close… yeah, i dunno if i wanna drop by suited up or nothing though. it’ll probably be too late for me to stop at home before coming back to the area too. shit…
you ever do events on saturdays?
also is the cover charge just for entrance? you get free drinks or something? i have no idea how clubs in Japan work, but yeah ~$30 is kinda pricey for standard clubbing…
Well I think standard entry is 1500 maybe? I dunno. I should look on the website again. But yeah. Unfortunately I’m going meet this girl at 6 on Saturday. So no event or guest list in the works. But I may swing by around 9 on Saturday depending on how things go.
hey bro, is there a dress code or this place? i know in cali some clubs got dress code like, no sneakers, no denim, etc.
but from what ive seen, jp has no code like that. the girls come dressed like prostitutes, but they are usually really cool and smart, but that happens to be the pop fasion…
word, my gf works in rhills too. we do get a lotta the ibanking crowd and 99% of them show up in suits so thats nothing out of the ordinary. yea, we do events on all different days of the week. if u guys are interested, ill give updates in this thread. didnt want it to seem like im just here to promote, y’kno. and yea, this party [friday] is doing all-you-can-drink from 10-12 so that explains the higher price.
ah, allgood, man. but im actually gonna tell u to NOT goto the club on saturday… unless u wanna learn salsa. we have weekly salsa parties on saturdays that go til 12-ish and then regular clubbing after that.
anyways, on a sf note, ill be in alpha station this afternoon [friday, 4ish] with a friend of mine. probly playing marvel/3s so if any of u guys reads this in time, drop by.
–Edit:
whoa, posted at the same exact time, haha. anyways, nope, no dress code. one of our managers wears shorts n sandals most of the time so its def relaxed.
moo moo: just hit me up on aim for whatever. i’m sure i’ll be clubbing eventually in japan, but i’m still tryin to settle into my new aptmnt and life and whatnot…
whoever else: i’m finally goin to the shibuya cvs arcade. k-maki/blanka/cammy
Ikebukuro :
SAFARI game center, close to East exit.
Less people than in Shibuya but still good competition.
Dominated by GAO, C groove Guile, Ryu , Iori player.
Very good K grooves and C grooves players mostly.
Drinks are 50(!) or 100 yens.
The arcades cabinets are more cleans and new than Shibuya.
( Only one set for 3rd strike but still high level )
Shinjyuku :
Instead of More there is MIKADO,
Two sets of cvs2.
Lot’s of tournaments for every games.
It’s rare to see cv2s players here, but like everywhere, when you start playing they appears like flies from nowhere.
Much more interesting place for 3rd strike players with 3 sets and top players training here regullary.
Shibuya :
The one that everybody knows, KAIKAN ( Hachiko exit ).
The best place to play cvs2 in Tokyo.
Almost anytime good player on it .
3 sets downstairs and one in 3rd floor.
Dominated by BAS, Togawa, Pinokio, Mizoteru, DAN …
All the top players that remains go there.
Drinks are 120-150 yens.
Quality of the arcades cabinets is not so good ( quite old ) and this game center is a little bit dirty ( but not a big deal ).
4 sets of 3rd strike with many people on it too.
That’s it for now. If I find out other interesting place i will add it later.
good shit gakousei, i couldn’t have said better myself. FYI at kaikan one of the workers on the 3f is a lil punk, i brought in my own drink (just a fuckin soda) and he told me to leave the arcade until i was finished with the drink (that was roughly traslated) but that only happened one time in 6 months of giong there.
I went to gamers vision last night for their ranbat and had a shit ton of fun. All the people were really nice to us and they all cheered me and my brother on since we were from out of town and KSK like formally welcomed us and shit, we werent’ expecting that, it was really nice of him. Tokido helped us out a lot too, his english is good and it was a relief to finally meet an english speaking person around here.
Anyways, i just wanted to see if any of u guys wanted to hang out sometime and meet each other. IparryU, we should meet soon, I wanna see what ur like, u seem like u’d be a cool dude. I’m free anytime, I aint got shit to do in japan, me and my brother are here for 2 months, just on vacation. Add me on MSN if u have it : shekeib_shaff2000@hotmail.com
Im just lookin to meet people around here, and play some 3s and guilty, peace.
