NAVA Gamer's Meeting, December 19th: "The Re-Gifting Season"

[digitalpress]

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

Previously at NAVA...

- The store celebrated its four-year anniversary with gaming, trading, and cake.
- There was much singing and merriment. Most of the merriment was where there wasn't as much singing going on
- Many games and systems traded hands between attendees.
- Pictures and video tell it best:

It's a PC Engine kinda weekend, I think, so we'll bust that out for a bunch of fighting, SHMUPS and fan-favorite dating sim action. I should have the SNES Powerpak up and running as well, so we'll have just about every Super Nintendo and Super Famicom game at our fingertips.

At 6PM we'll have a mystery tournament. The only hint I will give is that it's going to be a fighting game, and likely one that you're not familiar with. Prepare for battle!

5PM: RE-GIFTING SEASON:
--------------------------
'Tis the season of RE-GIFTING and we're going to give everyone a chance to re-wrap an old gift and get a new one in exchange. Simply bring any new or at least UNUSED videogame-related gift-wrapped item worth $10 or more gift-wrapped. We'll log you in when you arrive and put it under our tree. Everyone who contributes gets someone else's gift in exchange. At 5PM we'll unwrap the gifts!

Get your trade boxes in order. Get your game face on. It's THAT time again!

When: December 19th, 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.

We will likely be there early.

[Sniderman]

DAMMIT! I promised myself I'd come to the next one. Sadly, I'm scheduled for oral surgery on Friday, so I don't think I'll make it yet again. (I'm recuping today from round one, and I can tell I won't be enjoying round two next week...)

[PingvinBlueJeans]

I'm going to try to make it this month...I'll bring some interesting PC Engine stuff if so.

[OMF2097]

I'll be attending this one. The only thing I'm looking for is a Capcom CPS2 Kick Harness (or two of them).

[Dastardly Dylan]

I hope to be there unlike last month. Not really looking for anything this time but I'll be there to chill

Question: What is going to be set up? DJ Hero?
(that game is amazing...)

[NoahsMyBro]

On December 28, I'll be braving the warmth and sun in Orlando, and missing the bright and happy sub-freezing New Jersey climate, so the party will go on without me.

Hope to see you all in January!



EDIT: the previous post mentioned "chill". Hee Hee...

err...umm....it's the 19th dude...

[Greg2600]

I might stop by early on, if Joe has the SNES powerpak up, can't stay very long.

[Davedeadly]

most likely i will be there and this time i WILL bring my copy of street fighter 4 on 360. only asking $30 or maybe trade for something.

[manny4565]

I wish I could go, this will be the first time I'm not able to attend. I'm so excited as I wanted to bring in a rare complete and fully functional PS1 Pepsi kiosk. Oh well, another time.

[NoahsMyBro]

err...umm....it's the 19th dude...

What the hell was I thinking!??!?!? I'd have sworn I saw something about it being on 12/28.

Hmmm. I may be able to make it then, either early afternoon or late evening, depending on which family thing I ditch. I hope to see you guys and gals sometime then.

[toraborakid]

Is anyone going to bring some atari 8 bit carts? or even a few c64 carts?

also looking for a neo geo for about $150

[supergoldzero]

I glad I checked the site, I had no idea that NAVA was going to be this Saturday. Joe, I got Cave's Mushihime-sama Futari for the 360 in the mail yesterday. Should I bother bringing it?

[TVs Hasselhoff]

I'll be there.

I mean, I'm excited about my attendance. Don't know how the rest of you feel about it.

AND I'll be contributing to the gift exchange. I better not be getting no damned clock/radios this year!

[Jisho23]

I really hope the snow doesn't ruin this...

[TonyTheTiger]

That had to be the inspiration for this:

Simply bring any new or at least UNUSED videogame-related gift-wrapped item worth $10 or more gift-wrapped.

[Frankie_Says_Relax]

That had to be the inspiration for this:

Somebody owes you some candy.

[TonyTheTiger]

Nah, but I do think I gave myself an Indian burn from all that twisting.

[Vectorman0]

This is the first NAVA I have missed in quite some time. How was it? I need all the juicy details. Were any clock radios exchanged?
