STL Garbage - Chapter IV: BLIIIINDED BY THE LIGHT!

Patrick-
I’d like to get all those vids from you the next time your up at nwp. Also, what is BnB bye the way?

Steve/Rob/Greg/Atrice-
How did the tourney go? Please post up some results when you get a chance.

Late

I’m not any of the aforementioned but the thread is here:

A BnB is a “Bread and Butter” combo. Basically it’s just the best combo that character has to offer that is known to be damaging and easy to use/abuse.

I hope that’s what you’re looking for.

Dru-
Thanks for the information.

Everyone-
I talked with Bob the manager of tilt and he asked me to e-mail him a list of arcade boards, kits etc. to forward to his regional manager. Any ideas of what you would like and could make money would be greatly appreciated.
So far:
hakuto no ken/fist of the north star
chou dragon ball z
samurai spirits: tenka ichi kenkakuden
guilty gear xx slash
virtua fighter ft/ virtua fighter 5
ST(They probably have 40 copies of this already)
3rd strike
melty blood: act cadenza
mark of the wolves(shouldn’t be a problem getting)
neo-geo battle col.
metal slug 6
Besides fighters what else would you like to see???
Well, please post up soon, so I know what all of you would like?
Here is a great place to get ideas new or old for arcade games:

In other news-
I thought this game would never make it to console.

Heh if they get all those games…I might come up there once in awhile.

The question is tho…will they keep the machines in working order?

Shin M.-Are you going to be at the mall tonight if so bring the matches cause I will be there

Kam. Oyaji-I tried to call but I the phone was acting weird Tourny I got my ass kicked slash comes out on ps2 in april Japan
VF5-EXtra button dodge button Also confirmed for PS3 YES

Emx-Nice to see you again you should come out more

AKA- God damn you are good good shit…“You are Already Dead” quote of the month

Later End Transmission

I’m probably coming up to NWP this evening/night for KoF. Hmm, I still haven’t decided who to play in that game.

Arcade list is sent out and I added some japanese cabs to the list with a couple of oddball fighters/shooters/platformers:

hakuto no ken/fist of the north star
chou dragon ball z
samurai spirits: tenka ichi kenkakuden
guilty gear xx slash
virtua fighter ft/ virtua fighter 5
ST
3rd strike
melty blood: act cadenza
mark of the wolves
neo-geo battle coliseum
metal slug 6
senko no ronde
border down
raiden 3
psy-phi
house of the dead 4
shiniken/martial masters
mobile suit gundam z: aeug vs titans (gundam dx III)
knights of valour plus

Cabinets:
new astro citiies
blast cities
net cities
megalo
super megalo
neo candie

It’s good start if they are taking orders and considering what we want as customers. If they are true to what they say, we have to show up and play to keep the new inventory flowing. Otherwise, it will die once again. I hope it all works out best for the community.

Be up at nwp on friday night. Hope to see all of you there.

Cya

When they have an ST cabinet…I’ll cancel plans on a friday night sometime and show up :smiley:

nuff said! :sweat: :cool: :china:

Sorry mr. muffin. :frowning:
I will put it on the next list if this works.

I think that contacting Tilt and trying to make the place more worthwhile is a great idea. But I think it’s important to take a measured approach in what we request, in order to avoid coming off like selfish fanboys. Instead of bombarding the Tilt management with a list packed with obscure(to them)/potentially pricey/import titles and unfamiliar configurations maybe it would be a better idea to focus on a few games with domestic releases and work from there. ST should just be there anyway, along with 3s, and both have a pretty respectable following. As far as import titles are concerned, Slash should obviously be the first priority. We’d be incredibly lucky to get the rest.

Thing is, there just really isn’t much of an audience for games like Melty Blood or Hokuto no Ken, and trying to promote games that people aren’t already interested in is pointless. I mean, shit, it was just Aaron and I on the KoFXI cabinet Thursday night and there were about 20 people there just for Tekken 5: DR tournament – basically meaning they would rather watch Tekken than try out KoF(which is fine, no game is for everybody). Shmups are fun and all, but who really plays them around here? Gundam too. We can’t expect the place to turn into Akihabara jr. overnight or something when we don’t have a sufficient interest level.

Good point. I think if we could get a 3rd Strike Machine and maybe a MVS w/ Mark of the Wolves, whatever Metal Slug, and maybe a puzzle game we would be lucky. I would love to see Guilty Gear Slash, Fist of the North Star, or Vitura Fighter 5 personally. I just wonder how many St. Louis folks will play.

On the Kof front though. It may not be as popular as Tekken, but if you tend to throw in some good matches the crowds will come. A lot of it I’ve seen has to do w/ a lot of us wanting to get used to the game (myself included) rather then wasting the tokens. I was up there Thursday as well for a bit and at least there were a few people on the machine. We just need to get more intense w/ the matches.

Wow more and more people posting in this thread that is amazing. Anyway,

Aka-Man columbia was really fun wasn’t it, when are you going to play slash, I definetaly want to play that shit next time we talk can you show me some good Eddie stuff I’m dropping Millia to play him in both #R and Slash.

Tim- what’s been up when is the next time you are free so we can play, KOF XI is the tightest.

Mo-where are you at man I want yo play you Melty Blood and Tekken.

All the people that went to columbia much props, I saw a lot of good Shit with characters Yuyoong-Dizzy was the tightest, Jamaar-Jam can stop that Bitch, Cameron-3s master down there, you taught me don’t worry I’ll beat that ass next time(Just kidding) . See you all in MWC hopefully. I give you better comp. most definetely.

EmX - that was said perfectly.

If they get ST and people actually wanted to play more than 1-2 games. I would try to make an effort to come up there on thursdays (I’m assuming thats the day of the week when folks are up there now n days).

With no console release for the game yet, the only way you can play is by paying the tokens. People shouldn’t be shy about asking to test moves or practicing combos for a short amount of time. More intense matches will come once there are some people who actually know what they’re doing. We’re all scrubs at this point.

Damn, I wish SNKP USA wasn’t going to waste time by releasing Neowave here. There’s no point when KoFXI is such a better product overall.

Drew - I think people are up at NWP thu, fri, and sat. It’s just that the Tekken weeklies are on Thursday.

EmX - Gotcha…heh If and when I don’t go out on fri/sat…I’ll consider going up there.

i dont see the correlation of releasing neowave on ONE console for x-box live has to do with kof 11. Since OTHER snk games arecoming out this month (SS Tenka)
why would just neowave mess up kof 11? NO console date has been stated for kof 11 yet so wtf are you talking about.

How about less :sad: and blaming the system

and find out why my Joe, Andy, K team is beating the absolute bejesus out of you.

Holy shit Mugabe. They could divert the resources they’re wasting on porting a mediocore 2k2 uprgade with crashing issues to a newer game with an infinitely better presentation and crisper gameplay.

SNK is retarded. They can’t seem to figure out why their entire consumer base in the US consists of a bunch of fat geektron 20-somethings who burn thousands on absurdly overpriced secondhand neo carts and cabinets when all of their recent KoF ports have had crippling input problems and random crashing, Max Impact is a generic 3D fighter and broken as hell, and they refuse to release anything from their almost legendary back catalog.

Okay, it’s first to ten, double or nothing on Mi Lupita dinners against your shitty team in Neowave the next time we play.
