New England Classic Gaming Meet FEB.8 Boston

[christianscott]

shamelessly plugging our event here in the big forum...but its not without 2600 connections- we'll have a proto or two for you to play, many rare carts to trade for and loads of woodgrain worshipping. and of course we'll be wheeling and dealing every other video game system. so if you live somewhat close to boston then strap on your snow chains and get in on the fun. oh and heres a tease, we're expecting a first time appearence of major classic gaming figure...you'll know this guy.

 

goto our groovey website for all the details or email me if you still need more info. thats saturday feb. 8th 4-9!

[ahector]

where will it be held? i'm quite interested in coming and yet am nervous because I am a fairly new returneed to video games and i was never super good as a small child either. but it'd be especially good to meet other new englanders out there...

[christianscott]

dont worry about your gaming skills..its all about having fun, seeing cool stuff, trading and talking about video games.

We play games, eat Christian's food, drink his beer or soda, hang out, and talk. There is no competition involved. I got my ass kicked in Super Monkey Ball and Warlords a few meets ago, and no one made fun (at least to my face) or threw stuff at me. Seriously, it's a lot of fun and everyone is really friendly...
