Austin, TX meet up thread

[wip3outguy7]

Let's make a list.

I'm bringing:

Power Stone 2
Garou: Mark of the Wolves
Revolt
Outtrigger
Red Dog: Superior Firepower

[Flake]

I'm bringing a sense of intrigue and a manly musk.

Oh, and some games that I am too drunk to list. The theme is still 4 player, right?

[wip3outguy7]

Nope, the theme is just Dreamcast. No specifics on number of players supported.

Go ahead and post a list!

[Hobie-wan]

Here's a lazy ass plop of games I can bring. Obviously the 2 and 4 player ones are more useful than the single.

Armada
Atari Anniversary Edition
Bangai-O
Centipede
ChuChu Rocket
Elemental Gimmick Gear
Expendable
Gauntlet Legends
Giga Wing
Gunbird 2
House of the Dead 2
Mars Matrix
Marvel vs Capcom
Red Dog
Sega GT
Sword of the Berserk - Gut's Rage
Typing of the Dead
Zero Gunner 2

I have extra DCs and pads, 1 mouse, 1 keyboard, 1 gun, and 1 PS to DC adapter as well.

[wip3outguy7]

Yeah... Hobie, just throw all that in a box and bring it with you.

Checked in with Game Over and everything is good to go. We will have a set up similar to the end of August meet.

Does anyone have a 19"/20" TV that they could bring along? I want to dedicate a system to fighting games at the table so we will have a place to set the arcade sticks.

Went into Pinballz today - they've got a completely restored Tron cab. It was very pretty and ate many of my quarters.

I made it into the MCP though, lol.

Just interjecting a pic of the machine in question...... Carry on my wayward sons...

Hmm, looks like they moved it since I was last there. It was in the other 'vestibule' last time. No matter, it's there, and it's awesome.

I still wish they'd get some dedicated Street Fighter II/Champ/Turbo/SuperTurbo/Hacks machines, as well as Killer Instinct.

I agree. With the Mortal Kombat 1 machine present, you almost expect a Street Fighter II machine not to be too far away. I haven't been to Kung Fu Saloon in a while, but they had a SF2:Champ machine. The joysticks were pretty broken, though. I'm not sure if that has been fixed.

It would be cool if they got a hybrid Street Fighter like the one at Tornado Terry's in Keller. The machine there has a big blue button on it that lets you switch between Street Fighter II Rainbow Edition and Street Fighter Alpha 2 at any time. It keeps both games running at the same time, so there's no delay or reboot when you hit the button. This means you can almost simultaneously play matches in both, alternating between rounds or whenever you feel like it.
