I think the owner is now some asian dude. He was there watching me play the guy the one night I went. CvS2 machine is still in really good shape, aside from the left side fierce punch dying randomly for a while. It was fine the rest of the night. The multi-game cab with Hyper SF2, ST, Darkstalkers 1, SFIII New Generation and other random games is in great shape and a really cool idea. They just need to replace New Generation with 3S. There were a lot of cabinets down when I was there, and no MKII in sight. Ever since I learned to play that game at Nintendo, I’d love to take some people on in MKII.
I think making tournaments happen should be focused on Gametown, not Gameworks. I would actually be willing to run them again. I still have stacks of filled out brackets from the 30 to 40 people tournaments I held back in the day. That shit was awesome.
I wholeheartedly agree with you Ondrej. I also think that if we’re to try to have tourneys somewhere, that it should be at Gametown. I suppose the only questions I have is…
-How do we go about doing that?
-How do we convince them to get 3S?
I just hope the Marvel controls (and whatever other controls are messed up) can be fixed.
I say we hold charity tourneys for them so they can buy/fix new machines. Let them know we’re serious.
Plus, unlike the corporate autistic kid that is Gameworks, they’re probably listen to us. When it comes to machines/tourneys/games we want and need.
So does anyone know how to contact the owner, other than actually going down to the place?
This is a good idea.
With this idea we should also hit up the GW and GT (Game Trax)
Fuck Trax.
Whole in the wall piece of shit arcade.
They need to get ST, Vampire Saviors, Act Cadenza and 3S, then maybe it’d be good.
AND FIX THEIR FUCKING MARVEL CAB! :annoy: :annoy: :annoy:
Yeah! they’re never going to fix the Marvel cab…
I pwned them last time about that damn thing…
ST…I don’t think they know what that is… (that goes for VS, MB:AC)
They need to hurry up and replace the 3s machine…and keep it at a quarter…FTW
Man. even B & I > Trax.
B & I has Marvel, every SF2 except ST, Dark Stalkers, MK1-4, a shit load of DDR pads (all working) DUAL SCREEN 6 PLAYER X-MEN MUTHA FUCKER! COME SEE ME! XvSF, MSHvSF…all sortsa’ shit.
B&I? where?
I wanna say it’s in tacoma.
I haven’t been there in a while.
hmm…interesting…
I’m thinking of stopping by Gametown sometime next week (probably next weekend) as tomorrow is Zach’s extravaganza and I won’t be able to this weekend I don’t think. Who’s trying to go next week?!?!?
I’m down for next week. As long as I don’t have to play MvC2 (which I will, if it comes down to it)
Why did this topic die? GT roolz!
requoting that, because it’s a good idea.
We should get some people together to go pitch that to the owner.
