Re: Bay Area, CA Racketboy member's meet up planning - who's in?
Just some advice, don't have 50 games there or you might jump around a lot and just spend 5 minutes on a bunch of games. Try to concentrate on a few in each genre for variety in case too many people don't care for a certain game. Save some for next time.

That's actually a really good point. I figure depending on how long we'll be there, maybe 2-3 per genre/console? We want to make sure that everyone can be playing at all times, and that there's plenty of variety.

But there is only one TV, right? I don't mind. Watching people can be just as fun as playing, so I don't mind watching from the sidelines...as long as it's not a Madden game.

Someone's going to need to bring a Super NES for their respective games because I don't have one yet. Just a reminder, there's room for a 5th TV that can be placed on the cart just in case anyone wants to bring an extra.
Also, I'm trying to get one of my other friends to come (he isn't registered here) and I'll let everyone know what's going on with that.

Before I forget, I just remembered an awesome game idea. Super Battletoads for MAME. We can do 3 player. That's another game we can play off the laptop in addition to Streets of Rage Remake. It's multiplayer, fun as hell, and isn't too short either. I have two Logitech PC controllers but we'll need one more if you guys want to play this game. Apolloboy has the same ones as I do so maybe he'll be inclined to bring an extra.
