That's fine with me.

That would be cool. I don't think we've had a TurboGrafx at one of our meetups before. By any chance, do you have Bloody Wolf?

I was leaning toward just bringing a PCE, but I do have Bloody Wolf if I decide to bring both.

Sorting things out.

So far, here's what I'm bringing along:

Dreamcast:

Rez (JP version)
Zero Gunner 2
Gunbird 2
Cannon Spike

Saturn:

Elevator Action Returns
Soukyugurentai
Hyper Duel
Galactic Attack
Guardian Heroes (for this month's "Together Retro")

PS3:

Under Defeat HD


I'm considering bringing:

PS1:

Ghost in the Shell

Saturn:

Bulk Slash
Night Striker S
Assault Suit Leynos 2

I will likely leave them at home as they are single player. I thought it might be nice for those breaks when no one's really playing anything and people are mingling.

I will also bring my Saturns (one US, one JP), Dreamcast and modded PS1.

If I decide to bring the PS3, I have a few things worth trying out on it. I have Shock Troopers, Metal Slug 2, Alpha Mission 2, Sonic Wings Special and Renegade Ops.

Bah, for some reason tonight's excursion has me in a big funk and I'm betting when my alarm goes off in the morning I'm not going to feel like listening to it. I've been sitting here packing stuff, but I'm really not exited at the moment. :?

Science is wrong, you can hear things explode in space.

I have everything packed and ready to go. I'm going to get cleaned up and head out. I should be at Game Over around 12:45. See you guys there!

Sorry that I couldn't make it guys- when I can drive and all that shit, I'll come when I can. Not a big fan of driving up there, but I'd be willing to make the trip for some good games.

Great meet, guys. Quintorro, huge thanks for bringing out the 32" LCD. That was great to watch you guys playing Under Defeat HD. I also think that after I pick up the inevitable PSN card for Double Dragon Neon, I will probably use whatever is left to get Hard Corps Uprising.

A big thanks to all who came! Seriously guys, I haven't had that much fun playing co-op shmups in a long time.

Oh and Redline9, that Strider 1 & 2 is mine.




...and now my wife wants to kill me. "Pupupupupupupupupupupupupupah!"
