Austin, TX meet up thread

[wip3outguy7]

The meet was pretty awesome. Except for that part where we tried to play Sonic Shuffle. That was not so epic.

Wha? It looked like you guys were having a pretty good time.

The meet was awesome...got to play some stuff I haven't played in over a decade. Found a new arcade home and got wrecked in Virtual On by an old friend and got to meet some new friends. All in all today was an epic win!

Great meet up. I was really impressed by the attendance. It was really cool how there were three Dreamcast setups (2 four-player setups and 1 two-player keyboard-and-mouse setup) and a two-player Saturn setup. At any given time, four different games were being played. Mostly four-player action, too. Wow, just a lot going on all at once!

Fantastic job, wip3outguy7, you really know how to put on a good show! That was a very high quality event.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. I'm glad everyone had a great time.

And I almost forgot to thank our gracious hosts, Game Over Video Games. If you have not been to their stores, go. Drive cities and states away to check these guys out. You will not find a more professional retro store. The staff was at our beck and call and provided godlike CRTs for us to game on.

Thanks for putting the event together, I had a blast! It was awesome having a chance to play with all that vintage gear. I especially liked all the Saturn stuff that was there.

Was that Marvel Vs Capcom 1 that we were playing? I think liked that one more than mvc2. I still can't believe I actually won a round

Also, yall are more than welcome to join the videogame group at meetup.com Those guys are all pretty cool, and it's really easy to put events together. Cheers!

Curse Shuffle and all it stands for. Which seem to be annoy the player so when a mini game comes in you are angry that you have to figure what the hell to do. and eff that damned flying dolphin. good times. You bleed virtua Wipeout so i had no chance.
