the UK fighting game scene

Is there anywhere in london with a decent kof 98 and 2002 machine? ive seen the one 98 at goodge st but the joystick is terrible. Are there still any decent 98 players in the uk?i think most of the peeps have moved on, but i’m sure ryan is still gonna be heavy at 98.

Quite a few ppl go Goodge ST on Fridays.
The stick isn’t that good, but hopefully they’ll be replaced reasonably soon.
KOF2002 is also there, but again crappy sticks.
1 for 4 credits on 98 is good value for money though.

Check out neoempire.com
They are organising a KOF2002 tournament soon in London, and KOF2002 ranking battles too.
There are people that still play 98 as well (you can usually meet them in Casino on Fridays or weekend)

Fighters day 2 is on for all the uk heads, the last 1 was sick and this 1 should be even better. Check out neoempire.com for more info http://www.neoempire.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=566&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

so how much can I buy an Aero City cabinet in England for?

Hi

The names Rob I’m new here, is there a Tamworth/birmingham scene

Thanks

Hey chaps (am I using this right?)

I’m planning to take a vacation to jolly old England. I’ll be there about a month (Jan-Feb). I’m not quite sure where I’ll be yet but doubtless I’ll stop by London for a while. Sightseeing and what have you. I’ll be travelling alone and I’m a pretty avid gamer. Anyone in the UK play SF3/SF2/CVS2/etc? I see a lot of posts about KoF and I’m not too big on it but I’ll take what I can get.

So, is there a scene for me to crash or what? Like I said I’ll be travelling around, might hit up Ireland, Scotland, and Wales too.

I dont think this thread gets much attention anymore. 3S and ST are pretty big around London, CvS2 has a small scene, mainly because theres no good arcade with it setup at the moment. If you head over to www.neoempire.com that place gets a lot of hits from UK players, Im sure the guys over there can give you some better info.

Skimmed through quite alot of this thread. It’s always nice to see how things progressed from then till now.

All the above is an excuse to BUMP. Interesting thread.

Hi everybody, I’m a spanish 3s player, on 13 May, i coming to London Gatwick, and i will stay at London for 1 or 2 days, I will take a trip around United Kingdom these week.
I heard in another post about arcades, trocadero, namco station and casino arcade I’ll try to know them but I would like to meet with somebody who plays this game, 3s(i play another vs. games but this is the only i dont suck too much xD) so, if there is anybody who can recomend me an option or wants to play… i’ll be right here.

I have registered on neoempire but i havent recieve the email confirmation yet :frowning:

may 13th is a sunday, nobody goes to the arcades on sunday, unless there is a tournament. It could be difficult for london players to meet you on sunday/monday.

I will ask around for you and see if anybody is available to meet you and play some games.

I thank u very much, but there have been changes, and i don’t know if i’ll stay in london may 13th or a few days later yet. I will post when i know it ok?

Saludos! :wink:
