If anyone has a consolized MVS they want to bring and sell I'd buy it in a snap! I am getting tired of playing Metal Slug on my PS2. I wants it on real (modified) hardware!

I have a cool little Nintendo Red Tent with a MVS installed inside, for sale..

Looks like systems are good, so I will not bother lugging a Duo from NC. I'll bring a handful of games and converter as back up. Are we set for pads/taps? Those are easy to pack (remember, I'm flying).

My plan is to head up Friday to visit a friend, then hit VGS early Saturday. I haven't bothered looking at hotels but I figure I could find something Saturday night.

Hotwire from your laptop, you could stay somewhere near for around $50 ;)

The plan as of now, is my Son, Tasha and myself are leaving Central WI at 6am.  We should be able to get to the convo's doors by 12 noon or earlier(Depending on the speeding I do!).  I'm bringing a collection of tradeable SNES, NES, Gens, Saturn, 7800, and Keith Courage.  Along with my Turbob softs.  As well as the Turbob Duob Region Modded and the Projector.

we game OBEY all day long, bitch about the good ole days and then go out for Pizza afterwards!

Also, is anyone interested in doing some retro-roundtable style shows/specials for my youtube channel?  It'd be cool to talk to some of you guys about your favorite/least favorite games or modding and whatnot.

I'm sure we'll talk more at the show!  :D

See you guys Saturday!

Much appreciated Majors. :)

Also, does anybody have those adapters that allow you to play Turbografx controllers on Turbo Duo or PC Engine systems? For those who didn't attend last year's show, there was a guy who brought some awesome custom made turbografx controllers, including one specifically made for pinball games with buttons on the sides of the arcade stick. I will also bring along third party T-16 controllers that most of you have never played before.

SignofZeta: What a quintessentially PCEFX thread. Someone complains about nothing, multiple Bible-length posts discussing who's a bigger a$$hole follow. You're both pretty big a$$holes. Let's call it a tie.

I may have one, but it may be lost somewhere :(

Looks like my buddy has to work Friday till 10pm...any one wanna save me a two hour bus ride and pick me up from the 'port? I do not see any hotel shuttles as of yet, and being so far, not likely. I can try to get in at these times on Friday:

8:34 AM ORD
10:53 AM ORD
12:55 PM ORD
3:25 PM ORD
5:07 PM ORD
7:06 PM ORD
9:16 PM ORD

Does it work for anyone? Still figuring out hotel stuff...anyone looking to split a room?

A roundtable discussion might be cool. With Chany, Dan, Byron, and myself it may end up being interesting.

See you there! You will be able to find us by following all the shouting coming from Nintendo fanboys attempting to make one sided arguments. The best defense against them is to just don't move. Their vision is based on movement.
