Tempest Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 So it's time to start discussing when we'd like to have our next meeting. I believe we had agreed on Marvin's for the arcade and my house for the after party (we can change things around if people want). What's a good date for everyone?

Sonic R Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 my weekends are filled for this month with the release of Ketsui, we're having a gathering on May 1st, so my wife and I will be entertaining guest - if anyone is interested in xbox 360 Japanese shooters, let me know if there is interest to come - we currently have about 8-10 folks already planned to attend, and we will have 4 stations for game playing of various games, two dedicated TATE (one for 360, one for RGB Saturn/PlayStation) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 May meeting? June Meeting? Any meeting at all? Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonic R Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 any ideas for a future gathering? my wife and I are in the planning stage for one possibly on June 12 to coincide with the release of Death Smiles IIX (on the Japanese Xbox 360)… as always any and all are most welcome and we offer an array of games for play… I have also recently hooked up my Atari 7800 also are folks interested in dining events? we usually seem to do pizzapapalous[sp] in Dearborn… though it can be a bit pricey just throwing some of the things we've done to stir up activity… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 June 12th is really iffy for me. Lisa and I leave for a week long camping trip on the 13th so I wouldn't be able to stay out too late. Still, that might be doable. Death Smiles IIX? Is that the sequel? Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonic R Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 indeed it is the sequel… it releases the 27th of this month but my wife went with the economy shipping so it takes longer to arrive - it's possible we may consider late June as well, it's just that the 12th is the earliest we could arrange anything as we have other commitments on prior weekends… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted July 6, 2010 Author Share Posted July 6, 2010 Hopefully my Neo Geo will be back by then. Longhorn Engineer is fixing it for me (one of the slots is going bad). Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are they on sale? I think I only had 96 at last count. I might sell them for the right price. Some are common, some are rare, and some are complete kits so the prices vary. Still, it would have to be something very nice indeed to make me part with them. Those boxes do look nice... Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Leach Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 I could have sworn I counted over 200 in my sleep last night just htinking about your neo geo goodies....lol! Those boxes add a touch that you cant get, even from a woman.....(<creepy, I can't believe I just typed that!) I Can't make an offer right now, but maybe someday..>.

SignOfZeta Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 There are, I think, only 154 Neo Geo games ever made. The vast majority of them can be had on MVS for far less than the price of a new 360 game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
