NAVA Gamer's Meeting, September 27th: "Meet the Game Doctor"

[Hitman Tyler]

looks like I will be buying a shirt.
see everyone tomorrow..

[Vectorman0]

And for VCS fans, I'm bringing in flyers for the new 2-volume collection of the "2600 Connection" newsletter. These are reprints of the first 50 issues by original editor Tim Duarte, and each volume includes a full-color cover. Also, NAVA folks can get them at a special price... but the offer expires October 31st. I'll bring a set with me so that people can literally get a 'hands on' look at them

Now I'm definitely coming! Can you bring two sets so I can bring one home with me?!

[VideoMastersTV]

Once again, can't make it, which pisses me off. My job was closed for 2 weeks, and I am now flat broke. This is upsetting, cause I really wanted to meet Bill Kunkel, and I have no clue if he'll be back another time.

I hope someone will take pics with him.

sadly... I had to leave before, this happend. Also a video was supposed to be recorded, and put on youtube. So to be continued.

[Kid Ice]

How was the meeting? Which stories did Bill treat you guys to?

You'll see in the video it was not really a story-oriented presentation. The DP crowd asked some (I thought) intelligent questions about Bill's thoughts on the state of the industry and the state of video game journalism. Pretty good size crowd there too....I thought there were more people at this appearance than there were a couple years ago at VGXPO when Bill read excerpts from his book.

[J2games]

I wish I had been able to make it up, even as my business partner, I don't get to see Bill enough and to this day he still floors me with some long forgotten story he has. I assume someone will post the link (or did I miss it already?)

[Dastardly Dylan]

Had a great time at NAVA, as always. It was cool getting to know a little more of the Game Doctor, and of course hangin' with the cool forum members of Digital Press, AND keeping up with an old friend from ScrewAttack.

See everyone next month!

I apologize for the below average quality video ... YouTube absolutely devastates my DV video.

Here's the full 40 minutes uploaded on Megavideo, if the bandwith is exceeded, check the YouTube versions out.

One comment about MegaVideo - we have used them in the past and they sometimes have issues. Evidently there is a bandwidth maximum that they repeatedly pass - making some videos unviewable during certain timeframes.

But, as YouTube limits file sizes and duration, MegaVideo isn't a bad alternative for larger sized files.

Better compression, and no breaks in the video.

I did not anticipate that we would reach the fourth page already in the thread so I just want to make everyone aware that I have all of my links posted to all the videos and pictures I took at NAVA on my post on the third page. Take note, Apollo and Frankie, that I posted both of your respective videos of you playing Game and Watch Ball through my Game Boy Camera [I also threw in extra DJ sequences in both videos too].

Ahahaha, I enjoyed that much more than I should have.

Looking back at that day of playing in the Retro tourney makes me say "Man, I really sucked at that game...."

Heheh. I got schooled during the final match. I think I do want a Combat rematch sometime in the future. (Cue Rocky's "Eye of the Tiger")

Heh. I'm up for a challenge anytime. Except if it's around 3AM, that's just way too late.
