Awesome setup at MAGFest
« on: February 22, 2016, 06:05:48 PM »
Props to whomever loaned their hardware to have this awesome setup. Playing Rondo of Blood on an RGB monitor was a blast. First time I'd ever seen the shuttle in-person as well.

Awesome set up. 

That 1941 Counter Attack makes me drool.  It will be mine someday.

Big big props to Rob, I thoroughly enjoyed everything. I talked to one guy a lot while playing Final Soldier. Sorry for forgetting his name, great guy- he said he didn't post on the forums here though. He showed me his small collection he brought with him which included Cotton, Puyo, and way more- was awesome just to see the disks in person haha. When I saw Rondo of Blood I begged to play it on the RGB monitor- it looked so awesome on the doujindance Duo-RX. Through his help I was able to meetup with someone selling an RGB monitor which I took home.  :D

Ahhh, Andy "Numbers"...He had posted on N-G he was heading to MAGFest and could do sales at the show. He had some extras to sell. Rob got another 13" and 8" also.

Did you goto the RGB Masters panel?

I unfortunately missed it, I forget what else was going on at the time but there was definitely conflicts. Happened a lot sadly. Andy is definitely the dude I bought it from. It felt a bit more like a drug deal than most transactions but I suppose it is what it is haha. I had asked him if he wanted me to post on any forums to say the transaction went well but he said it wasn't necessary... I take it he is well known then? I am certainly a newb so I just don't know.

He posted on N-G that he was taking orders so he could deliver at MAG so it was pretty much well known. He just doesn't mess with the PCFX forum. He does not need forum cred :) Enjoy your new PVM! What do you have running RGB so far?

That is a very nice setup. If I was there you would have found me there for hours.

Haha that's fair, I guess he's done sales like that for years huh? He didn't really mention it, but then again I guess he didn't need to. Well anyways I am enjoying it a ton so far! I've only gotten my snes hooked up and put in an order online to get cables for everything I could. Genesis, Saturn, SMS. Top two consoles I need to get with an RGB mod is my PCE and AV Famicom. I'd like to get a new AV Fami though because my current one is pretty beat up. If you happen to know anyone selling RGB modded stuff give me a shout hah.

Oh yeah here's a shot from my BVM:

Damn it. Magfest is insane; there's too much shit. I was there. I had no idea this was there. Where was this stuff set up? It wasn't in the console room, right?
I'd rather be playing guitar or listening to a PC Engine CD soundtrack.

Currently playing PC Engine, Saturn, and SNES MSU1.

It was in the PC museum area, or whatever it was called close to that.

Vacant -> The Museum was on the 2nd floor, between the set of stairs (below tabletop/CCG). We moved out of the console room because, well...you've seen the console room at MAGFest. The museum idea was to have something with a better presentation. We will be back next year, and looks like we already have the okay for a larger room. Rob is already planning 4 more setups and the PC guys have tons more "crusty" computers stuff.

The term "Computer Museum" was not the original name, but it seemed to stick with staff. Some of us are not super happy, but it's just a name. It could throw ppl off, thinking it's just PC's but then again, it can be the little secret cool place for adventuring attendees. Rob and I started the idea with Matt/Shawn/Mike and it was a spin off from Arcade(budget). They have all the computer stuff, and boy do that have a lot! I'm told that what they brought was not even half of all their gear. Next year we will be a new independent department with more space. We are even coordinating with Consoles so we can get their 20" PVM's to use in the museum.

Nice. Very nice. I guess I need to work on the RGB thing too. That is a nice looking set up, made even nicer by the game. Wow.

Exactly how it worked out for me. It's funny because it does sort of match still, PC Museum... PC Engine Museum... Heh. If you guys need any staffing help or contribution in some way let me know, I'd love to help next year. I look forward to checking it out next year either way.

Any plans for MAGClassic? Whenever dates and such or finalized I will definitely be there, both events are always a ton of fun.
