Ever since he was a kid, it’s been his dream to open up a place for people not only to come and play games, but more importantly, for them to have a good time. He’s looking to establish a community-based environment in his store for people to feel welcome and to enjoy the atmosphere of DVD AVE. Whether you’re sharing laughs, cracking jokes, talking shit, or making casual conversation, it means a lot to him just seeing people setting a positive tone in his store. So if you’re a fighting-game player looking to get some experience or are just someone stopping by to pick up some Samanco, Danny enjoys meeting new people and welcomes everyone into DVD AVE. with a warm smile!<br><br><b style=“font-weight: normal;”>Facebook Page:</b> <a href=“http://www.facebook.com/pages/DVD-AVE/199714633388435?fref=ts” rel=“nofollow” class=“bbcode_url”>http://www.facebook.com/pages/DVD-AVE/199714633388435?fref=ts</a><br><br><b style=“font-weight: normal;”>Store Hours</b><br>11:00am - 9:00pm, errday<br><br><b style=“font-weight: normal;”>Phone: </b><i style=“font-style: normal;”>(310) 419-6970</i><br><br><img src=“http://s12.postimage.org/r3zt5idpo/IMG_6955.jpg” alt=“IMG_6955.jpg” class=“bbcode_img”><br><img src=“http://s10.postimage.org/mxsacbje1/301046_567272316632663_267480305_n.jpg” alt=“301046_567272316632663_267480305_n.jpg” class=“bbcode_img”></span><br>

I’m really starting to hate having a job in the evenings now. I’ll definitely hit up the store though, its right across my local ralphs. Thanks for the heads up!

Thank you so much for setting this up! I’ve been looking for a tournament near me. Just a quick question, what is the skill level of the players for the UMvC3 tournament? I would love to join if I can. Once again, thanks for making this.

Thanks,
FirestormSwing

Just to clarify, the Saturday tournaments are for SSFIV only at the moment. We’re still looking into running tournies for the other games, but are just waiting to see what the turn-out will be like for the SSFIV tournaments and perhaps what the demand will be like for the other games.

With that said, if you guys have any suggestions for anything, feel free to post them up. Since things are just starting up, there will definitely be room for changes to be made. If there is a day that you guys think would work better for tournaments or if you Marvel players would like to try to set something up, don’t hesitate to ask .

Had a good turnout for the first tournament with 14 participants. Congratulations to the winners Snake Eyes and Hugo101 in taking the tournament! The brackets and results have been placed in the second post. Thank you everyone for coming and we hope to see more people again next week!

Edit: So, due to numerous requests and much feedback, DVD AVE. will begin hosting tournaments for UMVC3 every **Tuesday, **in addition to its SSF4AE Saturday tournaments. However, due to the fact that both Christmas and New Year’s Day fall on a Tuesday, back-to-back, the first UMVC3 tournament will not occur until January, 08, 2013, so start preparing!
And as usual, feel free to stop by for casuals at anytime during regular store hours

I’ve been going for about a month now and there’s some very nice sets that have been happening. DVD has a nice jill player, taskmaster player, and recently a ghost rider player stopped by and raped everyone. Danny has all the decent players on his cell so if you stop by he always tries to bring in some of the best.

ill b there tuesday for maahvel pretty early (probably around 1-2 ish), come play casuals wit me plz!

I’ll try to make tues for some games, I missed out on last weeks tourney.

Ran a Round Robin with 6 people last Tuesday. Now that the Holidays are over, we’re hoping to see better turnouts in the coming weeks! Start preparing for SCR!

Okay. This is 12 minutes away from me. And I always need other places to learn. Maybe for the next AE tournament.

tuesday marvel going down
