Miami Thread - We were [ ] close to getting AE but then I woke up =(

Really trying to determine if this place is worth me traveling almost 2 hours too…

[LEFT]anyone planning on going to Final Round 15 in Atlanta? I have a SUV that can take 5 people total, meaning me + 4 people. Basically I am willing to drive the 11 hours if its more than just me going. So even if just one person wants to carpool, I am down. POST UP![/LEFT]

[LEFT]so far i have 2 people confirmed to go with me. if we get 5 people total, then the cost of gas and the hotel will only be around $115ish each. post up and let me know. i need 2 more people. either post here, or facebook miami mgc group or text me at 512 553 5938[/LEFT]

This thread is so ridiculously dead. Jeez.

my barber told me they opened some new arcade in kendall.
http://www.arcadeodyssey.com
its on 120th street and 117 ave, apparently they got street fighter and UMVC3 as well as a bunch of old school games, kinda like the old Flippers, ill check it out later this week

You’re 8 years late.

no you!

i thought they just opened that place?

soooo… i’m from peru and i recently moved to aventura can anyone please tell me where i can play pump it up ex fiesta 2011 around here??i’m desperate i’ve been searching for a month now…i dont own a car so it has to be near…or at least that i can get by bus in an hour or so…i need an answer please please please!!!

Not too sure if it’s that’s the version we have at our local arcade, but I know Arcade Odyssey has one, not sure if it’s that exact version or not. Look up Arcade Odyssey on Facebook and post up there i’m sure Rick Medina (Owner) will be able to answer you. Hope that helps.

yep i asked and they do have a pump it up…but its really far from aventura and im new in the usa so i dont know how to take a bus to get to the south…specifically to there X3

Yeah I can’t help you there, I don’t know much of Florida’s transportation system, I know it sucks and that’s pretty much where it ends. Lol. Glad I could help dude.

you’ll be looking at a 2 hour and 30 minute bus ride from aventura from here, lol. like four transfers. Arcade Odyssey only has Pump It Up NX btw :< there has been talk about him upgrading to fiesta ex but nothing concrete yet. the pads are in perfect condition though, super responsive

Yooo, I’m Peruvian also. I’m sorry to say, but you have downgraded when it comes down to Pump it Up availability ;(

The closest PIU you have is probably the one in Hollywood. It’s a PIU Fiesta (not 2011), and it’s not in the best condition either. You should pass by on Wednesdays though because the games are half off so it ends up being around 50cents a game.

Dave & Buster’s
3000 Oakwood Boulevard
Hollywood, FL 33020
That’s the address by the way. If you ever come down to Miami though, Arcade Oddyssey has an NX cabinet right now but let’s just say it might be getting updated to something you’ve never seen before, and it might be soon :wink:

Tournament at the end of this month

SOOOO I got a chance to interview some of the big names in the FGC last weekend at final round. I kept things light and just talked about their placing in the tournaments they entered, their thoughts on SfxT, and whether or not they like what MLG is doing with all of these new events.

The first batch of interviews are up now, and I got a chance to talk to Seth Killian, UltraChen, Arturo, Nerdjosh, iPeru, Skisonic, Sherryjenix, Scott Popular, Markman, and Clockwork. The second batch will include Spooky, Yipes, Noel Brown, and a few others.

The playlist can be found here:

Also I’ll embed a few of the better interviews after the spoiler:

I’m not going to lie, I was a little nervous talking to Seth Killian and a few others but I tried to keep things laid back and let the guys talk about whatever was on their mind at the time.

Hope you guys like it

Hey what’s up guys? Just wanted to stop through and post up the info for the 2012 EVO Midwest Championships (MWC). That’s right, we are an EVO qualifier this year, and are looking to make this the biggest MWC yet!

This year’s MWC will be held in Nashville, TN. Specifically at the South’s premier arcade, Game Galaxy, which is owned and operated by OG tournament player and veteran game collector Jason “DreamTR” Wilson!

All of the info on location, fees, and scheduling, is contained in the tournament thread, so I won’t make this post overcrowded by including it all here:

SRK Tournament thread - http://shoryuken.com/forum/index.ph…-june-22-24-2012-3-days-of-antioch-tn.152079/

Be sure to RSVP at the Facebook event page - http://www.facebook.com/events/100263760101160/

Also, follow Dream, Game Galaxy, and your Main Tournament staff on Twitter:

Chris “Negro Justice” Brown - Twitter @NegroJustice
Brandon “GoldenOreos” Brocius - @CMK_GoldenOreos
Jonathan “Milln” Conaway - Twitter @DPOnWakeup

One additional note - there are some upcoming TN events in which you will have the opportunity to secure favorable seeding for MWC:

The first is our “Games for Autism Speaks” event that is being held jointly with the Tennessee Chapter of The Modified Dolls. It will take place on Saturday, April 28, 2012, starting at 12pm. Facebook event page here - http://www.facebook.com/events/272080749529275/. Follow TN Dolls on twitter - @TNdolls

The second is an event being organized by our good friend, OG Marvel 2 player, and the hypest commentator in the South, Jose “DGAGodlikeRushdown” Santiago! A lot of you saw and heard him do his thing at Final Round XV! You haven’t seen anything till you come kick it with us in TN! “Memphis Bawse Battles” will take place on May 26th in Memphis, TN. Follow Jose on twitter - @DGAGdlkRushdown; and Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/GodlikeRushdown to stay current on his events!

The TOP FIVE placers at these events will get byes or double byes (depending on turnout) in their respective games at MWC. So, doing well here gets you one step closer to those sought after EVO points!

Finally guys, PLEASE DON’T HESITATE to contact the tournament staff, the arcade, post in the tournament or TN thread, send us smoke signals, carrier pigeons, etc for ANY questions you have. We are here to help and want to make this event huge as it’s the last qualifier before EVO.

Thanks guys!

I live in Pembroke Pines and am looking for a scene. Not sure which thread I should be looking at though lol

I play Tekken, Street Fighter X Tekken and Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3. (I don’t like SFIV though)

I’m in Pembroke Pines as well, also wondering where the “scene” is around here.

You have 3 places to choose from, you have Final Round Arcade, and Arcade Odyssey in Miami then you have Zero Ping Lan Center in Broward.

Take your pick.
