    Exclamation NAVA Gamer's Meeting, October 25th: "Night of One Hundred Prizes" (NOW WITH PHOTOS)

    NAVA = North Atlantic Videogame Afficionados. It's FREE, and YOU are invited to attend.

    Previously at NAVA...
    - Bill "The Game Doctor" Kunkel gave a presentation on gaming and game journalism then vs. now.
    - Atari 2600 and ColecoVision joy blasted the crowd as the store's very first Combat tournament was held.
    - There was no singing.
    - Many games and systems traded hands between attendees.
    - Pictures and video tell it best:

    http://www.digitpress.com/images/store
    http://www.youtube.com/digitalpressllc

    For the October NAVA, we shall be giving away ONE HUNDRED PRIZES. These will consist mostly of promotional material and memorabilia that's been stockpiled around here over the past three years. Mario coins. Zelda art cels. GTA wrapping paper. Various game-related shirts, caps, buttons, pens, etc etc etc.

    There will be many many ways to win! Trivia questions will be randomly offered to groups or individuals. Certain "achievements" earned throughout the store over the day will produce winners. Purchases at the register will qualify. It will be practically impossible to leave the store without winning something. More details will be provided right here a few days before the event, so keep an eye out!

    Nothing, nothing can prepare you. It's NAVA time!

    When: Saturday, October 25th, noon to midnight.
    Where: Digital Press Videogames: http://tinyurl.com/yscakm
    What happens: Gaming, trading, tournaments, big prizes! Attendance is FREE. Half price for kids!
    What can I bring?: Snacks, soda and beer are always appreciated. Cakes have been very popular as well.

    I'm not going to be able to make this one. I ended up volunteering for a gaming con that weekend in Jersey called Ubercon. I might actually see about cheating my way out of it, as I'm really not at all excited about going to it anymore.

    What will be set up this month? I know Rock Band 1 or 2, whichever, but what'll be on the other TV? Maybe an SNES like last month with that hilarious/awesome Power Rangers racing game?

    Whatever it is, NAVA will be an absolute blast either way. W00T!

    Tentatively Rock Band 2 and SNES with Tribal Tap so we can play Saturday Night Slam Masters/Bomberman/Etc. Could change but that's the plan so far.

    I vote for LittleBigPlanet to be played at NAVA, even if it's just for a little bit. The game will be out, and if anything I know I am picking it up so I'll bring my copy.
