Hey guys, sorry I haven't checked in recently. Anyway, my place should still be good. I live in south San Jose around the Cambrian area, about 15 minutes away from arnold_the_bartender, and I can host on Saturdays.

My room is small but I think I can cram everyone in. If we need to, we can do stuff in the family room where there's more space and I can grill some burgers right outside. There's also consoles set up in the family room, which include an NES, SNES, N64, PS2, 360, Wii, 5200, and a Saturn. As for the setup in my room, my sig should give you a good idea of what I've got. I also have flash carts for the NES (PowerPak), SNES (Super Everdrive), and VIC-20 (Mega-Cart) so there's loads of games to play beyond what I physically have. I've also got a SCART to component converter in my room, so we can play SNES, Genesis, Saturn, PS1 and PS2 games in RGB goodness.

Sweet, the Super Everdrive just in time. 8) I can drop by earlier on the day of if you need help setting up since I'm close. I can bring my Magnavox if we need more TVs.
What a maneuver!

The 26th would work best, but I'm up for the 12th. I'm busy on the 19th so that's a no-go.

Yep, the Super Everdrive came today and it's ready to roll. Don't worry about bringing an extra TV, my brother has a little Sony TV with a composite input that would work.

i'm in..

I can bring a 42" LCD if needed.

I also have 4 wave birds, smash bros (melee and brawl) etc..

I'm also an amazing cook! I'd be happy to take on grilling duties if a bbq if available. We can have everyone pitch in 5$ for food, and I can make a run to safeway or whatever.

I'm going to try my best to make it! I will have been home for a little less than a week. The only thing I have to worry about is having a little extra gas money.
