JAPAN THREAD 2007 (Konnichiwa B!tches!)

Hm, let’s see. I haven’t been flirting much lately so when I give it an honest try, I go down in flames, like a plane into a tower…? My attempts at Zangief vs. old Guile are as hopeless as … Uh, yeah kind of unexpected.

i just skimmed over that massive rant until i saw this…

and ive lost all respect for you.

thats gotta be the most generalizing and ignorant post ive ever seen. y’kno, im a new yorker and id like you to say that shit to my face. cuz we didnt lose all those people just to have some ignorant brit say we ALL shoulda died as well. im sure to you it was just like watching a movie on tv, but youve never had to go through the fear of realizing that you’re NEVER gonna see some important people in your life ever again, did you? try traveling off your lil island and experiencing the world a bit before you go making yourself look dumb. anyways, you’re on my ignore list now so dont even bother replying.

…and getting back on track, im in shibuya kaikan like every other day, what do u guys look like? should make some srk nametags or something, haha

Oh dood you cant miss me. I’m like the tallest gamer in Tokyo. But if you need an actual picturehere…

Now xMo0xMo0x,

First of all i am not a brit or british, I am irish, i grew up in ireland were war was an every day part of life, while growing up i seen my fair share of murder and and slaughter by british troops and the IRA and have lost many friends and family because of the war in ireland,so dont tell me i dont know what am talking about, because ive lived through it for 15 years.

Now everyday the thought of something happening to my friends or family was constantly on my mind, since all my family live in belfast, there was always a constant fear of what might happen to them, which is why my mum and dad moved my family out of belfast. So i do know what its like to live everyday in fear wondering what might happen to myself or to others around me and i know what its like to lose somebody close, because i have done.

Ive lived through it and ive watched people die, and no not on tv, but on the streets outside my house where you can see the blood stains of men, woman and children who died defending there country so i know what it`s like to live through that kind of pain.

Your statements about me couldnt be more wrong, you know nothing about me. So please dont comment on things you don`t know anything about.

I’m planning to head there after work today for a bit. I’m a regular sized white guy with glasses and a beard (not sure how long that will last though.) http://flickr.com/photos/fugutabetai/386191429/ if you need visual aids.

dropped by kaikan around 10 for a couple games but didnt see any noticeable gaijin, haha. im assuming all u guys play in the basement?

Ima be in Tokyo/Saitama from end of May to end of August. Anyone interested in Arcades and Clubbing + the general fun of Japan hit me up.

Hotness. I’m gonna be in the Tokyo visiting a friend of mine during the summer and I definitely wanna go clubbing!

Hell no, the 4th floor. That’s where all the Street Fighter competition is. The basement might have better comp on some of those “vs” games (Marvel Vs Capcom or Capcom Vs Snk, I don’t really pay attention to those games) but the 4th floor is where it is at for SF2, KOF, Melty Blood (what a lame game) Guilty Gear and some other fighters.

ah, gotcha. yea, i play 3S mostly and the 3S comp is def the best in the basement. i guess the 4th floor is better for the classic sf’s. but the basement DOES have rainbow edition, hehe.

and yo, if anyone wants to go clubbing, lemme know. summers kinda far away but ill try n put u guys on guest lists for my gigs.

I can’t do it this weekend because I’m flying back to Atlanta, but how about we all meet at my place one day and play?

I live about 30 minutes west of Ikebukuro on the Seibu-Ikebukuro line. I`ll be super free after the 15th. So let’s try to get something together. This looks like a dope reason to order a gang of pizza!

I’m in general up for shenanigans.

I’ll be back this weekend… Final Round X was too good!!!

“Final Round” I remember going there 2 years ago with my friends.
I went school in Savannah actually. Did you see anyone from Savannah?
Now I live near Shinagawa. I sometimes go Shibuya to play game cuz arcades ther cost 50yen.
By the way, I’m planning to have a Fighting game party at my place anyone interested?

hey guys, ill be in japan again this summer. i stay in higashizushi which is like, 30 min from yokohama. i usually go these arcades in yokohama but i heard one of them closed…

hows that ookubo place? alpha zone? do many players still go there for mvc2?

ill be in yokohama / shibuya / of course roppongi for most of the time.

velfarre CLOSED!!!

Naw, I wasn’t at FR8, but I’m trying my damndest to go to FR11! When were you talking about throwing a videogame party and what games are you thinking about playing? With a little planning this could pan out pretty good!

Word-up! But are these games set in stone? How about some 4 player action. Oldskool Smash Brothers maybe. And if you wanna get ugly my boy has saturn Bomberman with the multitap! But either way. I’m all for some Project Justice/3S/MVC2!

If you need any help setting up… I`ll come over early!

But are these games set in stone? the answer is NO cuz it’s all up to the people at the party feel free to bring you games.

if you can help,that’ll be nice when you say, Oldskool Smash Brothers, do you mean N64?
I have PS2 (Janan and US ver) DC(US but I got boot disc) SFC(got converter for SNES) and GC(Japanese ver) I know I have Bomberman online for DC and NBA JAM somewhere. Guess I gatta look for them.

I’m just wondering how many of you guys are planning to be part of this party?

Hey man I live in Osaka.

When you get to Umeda, ask around or look at signs to get to Hep 5. Once you get there, walk around it until you see KFC. Cross the main road and go into the mall entrance (which has a bunch of vending machines on the left), walk for around 50m and the main Monte’ll be on your left.

If you go there on a Wednesday night, you can find me playing 3s. I’m the only guy who kinda looks like a foreigner (I look kinda half asian, but more asian).
