    Default NAVA Gamer's Meeting, November 28th "Anniversary Edition"

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

    Previously at NAVA...

    - A witch, some Tetris blocks, a few zombies, various videogame characters including a couple from Kingdom Hearts, and TWO Joe Santulli's made an appearance.
    - Wii and Atari 2600 games were played side-by-side.
    - Many games and systems traded hands between attendees.
    - Pictures and video tell it best:

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

    It's the store's four year anniversary! There's no theme in order for this event, just an old-fashioned NAVA. We'll have Rock Band set up since it's been awhile and there are a whole lotta new tracks to play, and we've got a store copy of DJ Hero for anyone who wants to give that a spin (get it?).

    If anyone has a copy of Beatles Rock Band or Guitar Hero 5 for 360 that we can use for a few hours please bring it along.

    Prepare for a day and night of gaming, trading, and kibbitzing. It's NAVA time!

    When: November 28th, 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.

    Sweet.

    What's the traditional 4 year anniversary gift? Flowers? Silk?

    2600, INTV, NES and a smattering of random other system games. If you're looking for boxed pre-NES systems, we may be able to help you out.

    Also, this is a maybe as it's a lot of stuff to lug and it's not cleaned yet (and probably won't be until Christmas time).

    Does anyone have a copy of the original Silent Hill 1 for Playstation 1 they would be willing to trade or sell at the upcoming Nava? I have played every Silent Hill game that has been released EXCEPT for the one that started the whole series, and I can't find a copy anywhere. I REALLY want to know how it all started and would really appreciate it if someone were willing to trade or sell a copy of the original on the 28th. Thanks.

    "A nice quiet NAVA"? I haven't seen one of those since I opened the store!

    We miss you, but I certainly prefer my NAVAs very loud and and not at all "nice".

    Is anyone looking for an older Apple computer? I have a bunch of different types I can supply. Very cheap. Make an offer and I am likely to accept. I'm running out of space, and I can't store these forever.

    Computers just come with bare computer and power cable, no monitor unless it is built in. Official apple keyboard and mouse can be supplied for a bit extra, but they are used and not the best looking. The computers aren't in mint condition, but they still look good overall. The computers were taken care of, but show signs of normal use and have normal blemishes, dust, etc.. They are all tested and fully working.

    Let me know if you are interested and I can bring whatever you want along for you to see.

    eMac (see more info here)
    PPC G4 700 MHz
    640 MB RAM
    40GB HD
    CD-RW Drive
    Mac OS X Tiger (10.4) Preinstalled

    Power Macintosh G4 Tower (see more info here)
    PPC G4 450 MHz
    128 MB RAM
    80GB HD
    DVD-ROM Drive
    Zip Drive
    Mac OS 9.2.2 Preinstalled

    iMac G4 17" LCD - GONE!

    I might be able to prepare another iMac G4 Flatscreen if you wanted one.

    Everyone bring their trade boxes, even the stuff that has been rotting away for months. I have Secret Santa shopping to do, so there is a lot of stuff I am looking to get.

    Lis and I are moving to our new condo soon, and in the move (and the need for more space) I'll likely be pairing down a bit of classic gaming stuff that I have in hard storage, so for the first time in many a month I'll have a sale/trade box of potentially interesting things.

    I might be showing up, I'll be able to find out later today. I'm working seasonal at Toys R Us right now, and next week is Black Friday, so I expect my schedule to be all sorts of insane. Either way, I'll post my schedule when I find out what it is.

    I haven't been to a NAVA in a while. I miss you guys.

    So I just snagged a Laseractive off of Ebay and it came with over 30 laserdiscs. They're good movies but since the DVDs are pretty much the better option all around I'm looking to unload them. I'll bring them with me if anybody is interested.

    I'm planning to be there, with a whole bunch of stuff as I'm trying to clear the backlog and raise funds for other purchases. You can checkout my sale thread. I also have some stuff that isn't yet listed, so if you have wants let me know.

    Also I obviously won't be bringing this due to the size, but I have a Black Knight pinball machine for sale. I'm about 30 minutes south of the store if anyone is interested. I'm asking $1400 for that and it works perfectly. Send me a PM if interested and I can send you photos or you can drop by to check it out.
