Yeah, I was thinking about that. Remedying that right now. Unless of course someone owns that.

I mean, umm, if we're at a private location we might be able to partake. *cough*

I had to scroll back a few posts to find that you weren't talking about Guitar Hero. You can't imagine the sigh of relief when I realized GH was Guardian Heroes. My faith in this endeavor is instantly restored.

Saturn Bomberman is a bit nuts expensive. I have Bomberman online for DC...is that a decent substitute? I've never played Saturn Bomberman so I don't know what makes it stand out.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

I agree that gaming should be the main focus, and I think the Game Over location would be great for that. I suggested the Kung Fu Saloon as the drinking location mainly because I think it would be a fun place to get together for the once a month thing.

Basically ever since I moved away from home some 4 1/2 years ago I haven't had a group of video game friends that I got to hang out with. Knowing that there is a group down in Austin I'd like to make the most of it, which is why I suggested the monthly thing. Of course we could always do both the quarterly Game Over visit as well as the monthly Kung Fu Saloon/Drinking Video Game Fest.

Ditto. :( Except maybe longer for me. Trying to get some gamers together is like pulling teeth. I blame XBL/PSN.
