Title: TG16/PC Engine Gaming Meet Up
Post by: Nec.Game.head on December 30, 2014, 03:37:12 AM
Planning on attempting to host a meet up sometime next month at my place in Downey CA which is located in SE Los Angeles county. This will all depend on if their is even enough interest for it on here. I have no idea how many members from here are even in or around the So Cal LA area. I typically host retro console gaming/Arcade meets once monthly and  the average number of attendees is over 30. This time my plan is to base it strictly around the TG16 and PC Engine hardware. Here is a list of my current Obey hardware and monitors. If any interest for it please let me know.

3X 29" Sony PVM's
3X 20" Sony BVM's
9X 19" Sony  PVM's
1X Neo Geo 50" candy cab running a Duo-r
3X region free RGB modded Duo-r's
4 stock Turbo Duo's
1 region free TG16 CD
2X stock Turbo Expresses for 2 player link up.
30 plus TG16/PC Engine games
1 Everdrive

Oh and not to forget a Mexican style BBQ during the meet !! Hehehe lot's of carne asada tacos, beans, corn, Spanish rice and all the rest of the traditional goodies to enjoy !!

I'm tempted to road-trip it just to see how you manage to BBQ beans and rice!  I've tried, but they fall right through the grill onto the coals.  :? :lol:

Heat 'em up on the grill in the can, but make sure you open the can first.

Nobody likes bean grenades.

Sounds great, I'll be definitely doing my best to land a good day so that everyone on here that would like to attend can make it. Looking forward to making this happen as I would really love to see a So Cal community start building up as a result of stuff like this.

You're also on the Neo-geo for life page, right? Unless I have you confused with someone else...

Hello! I guess I'm kind of an unknown on these forums (mostly from Neo Geo.com and AtariAge), but I'd love to hang out. If you've ever been to one of droid's meetups, you may have even met me before.  8)

I live nearby in the OC area.
