    Exclamation Nintendo Wars! (Thursdays, Brooklyn NYC)

    Hey Retro Gamers!
    For anyone in the NYC area, Alligator Lounge hosts "Nintendo Wars" every Thursday.
    What is Nintendo Wars?
    Well, We've got 3 NES systems, 2 SNES systems, we hook them up to the TVs at each end of the Bar, (and also have a 7 foot projector screen) and we Play Old School Games all night.
    Oh, cheap drinks and free pizza too :P

    We make each game a competition, so you can win Prizes and whatnot just for playing old games you love.

    For example, in Super Mario Brothers, we have 3 competitions,
    Fastest time through lvl 1-1 (using no pipes)
    Highest Score through lvl 1-1 (using no pipes)
    Lowest Score through lvl 1-1 (Using no pipes)

    One of my personal favorites is Top Gun, where we give a free shot to anyone who can land the plane on the aircraft carrier after lvl 1.

    The Tournaments start at 9:00, but the systems are in the bar after 7, so you can come in for "free play" anytime after 7:00.

    Come out, bring some cartridges if you got em, and have a blast!
    Oh, did I mention it's free? Because it is.


    Some games we have acquired:
    Dr Mario (2)
    Batman
    Wreslemania
    R.C. Pro Am
    The Karate Kid
    TMNT 2 (arcade version)
    Ninja Gaiden (2)
    Skate or Die
    Super Mario/Duckhunt (3)
    Excitebike (2)
    Top Gun (2)
    Super Off Road
    1943
    Double Dragon 2
    Rad Racer (2)

    Street Fighter 2
    Mortal Kombat
    Super Mario Kart



    Alligator Lounge
    600 Metropoolitan

    By train, take the (L) to either the (Lorimer) stop.

    If you have any questions, feel free to shoot em at me!
    -Ken

    Lots of winners! Each game has it's own competition and winner, so everyone has a chance to compete and win!

    The topic title had me picturing a meeting between people so as to put on a big battle campaign.

    Still awesome, though.
