AtariFan1 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Hello all, Please reply if there is an interest in a Atari or classic gaming user group for central Florida. If so maybe we can arrange a meeting. Thanks everyone. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariFan1 Posted November 18, 2012 Author Share Posted November 18, 2012 Great, let's hope we can get a few more to be interested or we can meet to to play some games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I'm more of an Intellivision sort of guy, but I could go for a retro-gaming meet up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neotokeo2001 Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 This was tried before and didn't have much of a turnout. I even had some competition Invader X cartridges made for it. That being said, If something does come together I will be there probably with a few more competition carts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariFan1 Posted December 8, 2012 Author Share Posted December 8, 2012 This seems like a decent amount of people to get together and play some games. Maybe we can meet once a month or so and any gaming system will do. I have a lot going on this month with holidays and all... but next month I am pretty clear. If you guys are in then we can start at my place and arrange a date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 Yeah, I still have that competition cart. Actually just dug it out of the garage the other day. So I live in Winter Haven (home of Legoland Florida!) which is about an hour from Orlando. If you guys set something up I'll see about coming. I've got a couple of Atari things that might be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariFan1 Posted December 9, 2012 Author Share Posted December 9, 2012 Been there a couple of times, my son loves lego land. I live in clermont, you could come up from i4 to 27 N from your place. This will be fun... I will post something up for January. Is there a way to send notifications from atari age? If not, can you all send me your emails to my main email: daves32000@gmail.com and I will send something out. We can also create a group on facebook that has notifications for events.

NightSprinter Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 East Orlando here (near UCF campus). Will try to make it out if something happens. Been also trying to find someone locally that would be capable of fixing my 1084-S monitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtariFan1 Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 Awesome, like I said I will plan a date in January. Looking forward to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightSprinter Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Cool. I still have the Invader X cart I got from the one in '07. If I can make it somehow, I've got some gear I can bring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PacManPlus Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I'm in SouthWest Florida, but unfortunately it will be a while before I'm able to go to any functions Please keep me in mind though! If I'm working on any games when I'm able to go, I'll bring a WIP with me. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taskmaster99 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 So, Taskmaster99, since you are the ass-kicker whom is the ass kick-ee? X) Im lost. Your gonna have to explain that to me...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightSprinter Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 It was from the game "Marvel Vs. Capcom 3". One of Taskmaster's intro lines was "I'm the ass-kickER, you're the ass-kickEE!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightSprinter Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 He's definitely one of the more interesting Marvel characters in his abilities. Back on topic, though, would also love to hear from other AA members in Florida discern places they get their games (especially the retro) from.

Back on topic, though, would also love to hear from other AA members in Florida discern places they get their games (especially the retro) from. I am mainly an online shopper for my games. The Goat Store, Stone Age, JJ games, Atari 2600.com and here. As far as brick and mortar stores??? All I have around me is a bunch of Gamestops and the people that work there know jack and crap about anything other than the current gen. Used to frequent a Play N Trade when my buddy was the manager...but he has since left and now you have the same story. A bunch of idiots who have never heard of Turbo Grafx or Neo Geo.

Dan Iacovelli Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 there was group called miaug but it died down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taskmaster99 Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) A new place opened up near my house called "Monster Games". They sell the current gen and also alot of retro stuff. Problem is......they know what they have and price it accordingly. Had a copy of Sunset Riders for SNES for 45 bucks.

NightSprinter Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 That's the problem when you have a store run by people that know games in an honest-to-God manner, and know what the collectors like. For example: the local place in Waterford Lakes Shopping Center here called "Gamers Inc" has a Sony PS One with LCD for $80, and a near-pristine first model SNES for almost as much. Even discussing Hagane for the SNES with the main dude there realized what he'd be looking at market-wise for price to sell if the store came across a copy (easily over $300 online). I guess it depends on the people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
