Arcade and Retro forum beers! (AKA the night of the scandalously drunk retro geeks)

I'd better hide the Nes as well then, save me cleaning up tears of shame, the shame of non ownership!
You know, if i ever find one at the market or similar I will buy one for you, just to end your suffering.

I doubt he'd take even a free one. "A 50Hz NES? Pfft, I'd rather die."

I'd rather saw me balls off with a shotgun.

Jeebus man!
Don't you ever sleep???

Retr0gamer

This time I'm up with Sparks myself. I'm off home. Sleepy time.

DinoRex

Oh... I found my M.U.G.E.N collection the other day.

Anyone up for a bit of it with the X-Arcade sticks?

pdbhp

Soooo is this happening this week?

CiDeRmAn

Yup, all systems go.
Now, I have a projector ready for big screen MD fun, so if someone has something cool tto play on it, bring it along.
Or anything else for that matter!

The wifey is heading out so my Pokemon loving 8 year old will be mingling, but its just as well so's there is someone responsible on attendance!

If people can let me know I can get enough cases of Haribo and Cheese Puffs in!

johnny_ultimate

Is this on Friday or Saturday?

Definitely can't make it on the Saturday, but will try and see what I can do if it's the eve of the weekend (if there's any liftage going from the glorious suburbs of the southside it would be much appreciated )!

Retr0gamer

Myself and a very tired sarah are on board. Not sure if there's much I can bring that you don't already have other than some cho aniki which I doubt is suitable for the eyes of an 8 year old.

CiDeRmAn

But, Mr Ultimate, the party can't start without you!

Oh, he will be in bed by 9 or 10 so rudeness is permitted!
The last one in mine was very well attended, by a load of folks I didn't know!
Must ask Martineatsworld if he amd his mates are coming along.

Sparks43

Dont think i can make it this time as i Have a Boulder Dash Anonymous meeting to go to

CiDeRmAn

Now, now, we will have none of that talk, of course you're coming.
Who else is going to be evangelising about his favourite game all night?

DinoRex

Last time around he spent about an hour in my kitchen trying to get a Spectrum emulator to work...

Retr0gamer

I spent longer trying to get Gamera 2000 to work

Worth every second.

CiDeRmAn

Thats ok, I have two working Spectrums, with tape deck. All he.needs is a genuine copy of Boulderdash and he'll be happy for the night, just have to search him before he leaves to make sure he doesn't stroke it!

As long as you mean steal then it's not too bad. It's getting stranger round these parts with 'sniffers' coming out of the woodwork, but strokers too? :eek:

CiDeRmAn

Now, I can give Dinorex and Sparks a lift if they like, I'm picking up a mate from North Strand at 19:15, so can swing by for you guys.

That means the evening will kick off at say quarter past 8?
That's pm folks!

Sparks43

Lovely hurling

Good possibility i will be down in fairview around that time so it will save you going out of your way

Does it have to be genuine

Just about to find an old blank cassette to record the game onto

Have already converted the tape file to wav And im after listening to that lovely speccy loading sound:D

Retr0gamer

So does that mean everybody has to tiptoe around for 5 hours until the game loads?

Sparks43

Do you still need someone to bid on this? I have a friend in the UK that could put a bid on later but would not be around at the ending time. Also, you'd need to tell me what your max bid is and make sure no-one else here (from outside Ireland) outbids it in your name.

Sparks43

Cheers guys but its not worth the hassle of double posting from uk to here

Ill keep an eye out for one that will post to here

Probably wont even be bidded on by anyone
