May NAVA - Sat, May 27th - Be There!

[Vectorman0]

I'm going, who else is?

As Joe mentioned in the email, everyone should list what they are bringing and what they want for trades.

I'm after: DS games, Vectrex games, Atari 2600 paddle/keypad controllers and maybe some other good classic games I haven't played for any system. Any non-fighting MVS cart I also may be interested in. And as always, any complete NGPC UK/JPN things or uncommon metal gear related items I probably want.

I'll be bringing: Lots of N64 games, and games for misc other systems. If anyone is interested in some cheap strategy guides (nothing too special) and magazines (EGM,OPM,ODCM - N64 to current era) let me know so I can bring them.

[DKTheArcadeRat]

I hope that I will be there. The last one was good. This post is very boring, sorry people reading this boring post by me. If I end up going, I'll bring my Atari 2600 carts I want to be rid of. Maybe someother stuff too.

[GrandAmChandler]

OH SNAP! GAC will be in the house.

WHAT I WANT:

-Complete Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Advance games
-Boxes and manuals for the GB systems mentioned above.
-Complete Dreamcast games to finish my collection
-Unusual GB promos, posters, etc.

WHAT I GOT:

- SEALED Official Nintendo RF Switches w/ GCN + N64 adaptor. (Works on NES and SNES too.)
- couple sealed Xbox games
- Trade box chock full o' stuff. WHO KNOWS!?
- Might have some sealed NGAGE games too.

Vectorman0, when did you get the email? I'm suposedly subscribed, but have yet to receive an email...

I probably won't be bringing my box o' stuff. It's been the same crap for like 6 months... Anything that hasn't gone yet, probably isn't going to go. Besides, most of it is up on Ebay (http://stores.ebay.com/Schenleys-Stuff).

I am looking for Phoenix Wright / DS - used or new, if anyone has one.

Yeah, that way I won't have to take all of your money. LOL

Anywhere, here is the email for everyone:



Hey folks!

It's that time again - the regular gathering of east coast gamers and collectors that we affectionately call NAVA.

This month's meeting will occur on Saturday, May 27th. That's the Saturday of a long Memorial Day weekend, so you can save your excuses for one of the other two days this month. Just BE THERE!

I'd also encourage attendees to reply to the group with "what you're bringing" or "what you need", it really helps the flow of commerce when we know what to bring.

Pictures of the April event:
http://www.digitpress.com/images/store/index.htm

When: Saturday, May 27th, noon to midnight
Where: Digital Press Videogames (see http://www.digitpress.com/store for directions)
What: trading, trading, trading. And gaming. And probably beer.

[fergojisan]

Yeah, dammit! I really want to see the store. Plus I finally have a trade box again, with some good stuff in it. Poopie.

At least if Joe has one in June, it probably won't be when we're on vacation.

Please don't have one on June 17th. Thank you.

[dreamcasthistory]

Yeah, I can't make it either because of this (just like in April).

People have family commitments and stuff and I really wanted to go. =/

Sorry! We'll surely hit a weekend that isn't a holiday soon. You need to get down here, you're missing EVERYTHING :)

PS sorry I didn't realize this thread existed before posting the official announcement. Now I expect DOUBLE attendance numbers!

STUFF I NEED:
-Super NES systems
-Common popular NES games (Castlevania, Super Mario 2/3, Punch Out, etc)
-Uncommon loose Atari 2600 games
-Loose ColecoVision games

See yas on the 27th.

[Goblin]

Not sure if I'm going this time around. Plans for the weekend are still up in the air. If I do make it I'm looking for some obscure items:

Sinclair 2068
Atari Portfolio
(If you can help me out send me a PM and we can work something out)

I'm planning to bring my 130XE with internal SIO2PC. John Hardie and I had a long 8-bit discussion last time and talked about bringing it out the next time. For trade I've still got piles of stuff everything from 5200, CV, INTV, to NES, SNES. I usually just grab whatever I can fit in my car. I'll try to run through everyones want list before I pack.

[Schenley]

I am looking for Phoenix Wright / DS - used or new, if anyone has one.Never mind.... I caved in and got one on Ebay...

[Vectorman0]

Hmm. Now that I have my DS, I'd like to try some multiplayer stuff. Does anyone want to bring their DS along too for some multiplayer fun?

[DKTheArcadeRat]

I will, that is if I can remember. What games?

[Schenley]

Hmm. Now that I have my DS, I'd like to try some multiplayer stuff. Does anyone want to bring their DS along too for some multiplayer fun?Yea, I'll bring mine along!

[digitalpress]

Hopefully the NAVA vets outnumber the Clifton locals... there's a lot of local interest in this as the store's grasp on the community grows! In a future NAVA I can see gaming wars between the two factions! Or maybe we'll just all share a six-pack.

Looking forward to this weekend. I've found one more gaming opportunity: GameCube with Wavebirds controlling the three ceiling-mounted TVs! w00t, wall to wall gaming!

[segarocks30]

Uh, I would come, but I live in CT.....A lil bit far from the store...Anyway, I don't know if you would let 12 or 13 year olds in these meetings.

I've had both CT residents and under 14-year-olds in my store, you're certainly welcome at the store's gatherings!

HUGLGLGLGLGLGLGLGLGH


and that's when the parents called the cops...

[dankicksass]

I'm happy to say that I will be attending the NAVA meet with a sack full of stuff ranging from Gameboys to, um, well, I don't know what else yet. But there will definitely be Gameboys in the sack.

Oh, I found some SNES stuff to bring too. And I'll probably bring my NES handheld along, just for kicks. It should be done in the next day or so. ;)

[GrandAmChandler]

Looking for Ngage games I dont have as well please bring what you have for trade!

[digitalpress]

One other thing I just thought of for those of you asking "what should I bring?"...

SNACKS.

Last month I didn't have time to run out and get them beforehand, neither did anyone else - and thus there was nothing to eat until the 6pm pizza run. Keep this in mind!

I'll try to bring something. I should make a big sign that says "$10 A Slice" to keep non-NAVAers away, too.

Cool, awesome. Kickass. Hmm....Maybe I'll try to stop there by convincing "good ol" Dad and Mom to drive to NJ, Well I did check directions, it's actually only under 2 hours. If I did come, I would probably bring some PS2, Genesis, and Dreamcast games and maybe a few Gamecube games.

I'm going to miss this one, but I'll be in Philly during June, July and part of August, so if you have one this summer, I'll be there!
