Michigan Arcade Party October 2 - Wiz's house (Ann Arbor)

Hello KLOVers and in particular Michigan folk, the time has come for another meet-up/arcade party in the mitten. I put myself on the stick at Drews party a couple of months back and am ready to have all you boozers and control panel abusers over.

Looks like Oct 2 will work best. I am thinking we will keep it similar to the last one and kick it off at about 2:00 PM. Not sure how long it will go, but I am fine with people staying for a few hours (probably 5 or 6 PM or so). I will provide some snacks, beer, soda and water. But feel free to bring your own beer if you are particular- my guess we will be living the High Life over here (Miller that is).

I have updated my VAPs and will have about 24 games or so going in the basement with a few being multis. I will also have several in the garage as well, but am trying to sell a bunch of them this weekend, so garagecade is pending. Regardless, should be a good time.

Hit me up with a PM and I will shoot you my address. Hope to see you there.
 
I'll be there. Hey Wiz....do you happen to have a Sega Turbo? I have two boardsets I need to test.

Sorry Rob, no Turbos over here. I had one years ago, but have not seen one in a bit.

What games are you hoping to sell ?

Several up for sale right now- they include:
Pac Man - nice dedicated cab, missing back door
Mortal Kombat II - very nice dedicated cab with beautiful monitor
Stargate - very nice dedicated cab with new overlay and nice bezel
Make Trax - nice dedicated cabinet, needs overlay
Quaterback - nice 25" monitor and solid cab
Shadow Dancer - in a Joust cabinet, has laminent over artwork
Joust - nice dedicated game- very nice overlay, bezel and joysticks
Satan's Hollow - solid dedicated cab with clean sideart on both sides
Super Sprint - currently not working, but close - very nice cab
Kung Fu Master - dedicated game with nice bezel and sideart
Big Top pinball - currently not fully working, but very clean
Empty cocktail table - had birdie king in it. It has a tube and I have a GT board for it.

I may also sell a few games for others which will include Tekken 3, Ikari Warriors III, and Phoenix pinball machine (non working)

There are actually some pics in the auction type thread that talks about a huge garage sale in Michigan this weekend. Gutsman posted it, but it is my sale. I will be having a large garage sale on Saturday, but all the games are available before that. Let me know if anything strikes your interest and I can shoot you some prices/pics, etc
 
Monday bump for the arcade party taking place at my house this Saturday. I have had a few folks from KLOV say they will be coming through, but I wanted to put this out there to the rest of the Michigan massive. Also anyone from Ohio, Indiana, or any other state is welcome to come through. I will have some pizza, pop, beer, chips, etc.

Should be fun, hope to see you over here!
 
Shoot me your address in a pm when you get a minute. I don't have to work and my car situation is much better than it was when Drew had his party. Speaking of Drew has anybody heard is he coming? I know he doesn't log on too often on here so I just want to make sure he knows there is another party going on.

PM sent. I have not heard from Drew, but definitely would like him to know about the party as I was at his recently. Can someone who knows Drew reach out to him or shoot me his email or phone number?

Will let you know in the next day or two. Wish you guys would have your parties after 7:00 PM. :)

Hey Bill, sorry about the time. Seemed like most people wanted the last one early, so I figured I would keep it that way. I am fine with it being later, but it may be a bit tough now. But hey, you are welcome to come over anytime! I am usually up till about 2:00 tinkering around with games anyway.
 
Sorry guys, I rarely go on KLOV anymore. After Dan got off his date with Mike he decided to text and tell me about the shindig. I should be able to go. I'll PM Wiz for an addy.
 
I'd like to come to the party as well to represent for the KLOV Minnesota delegation but I have a family emergency to tend to so I don't know if it's going to be possible :(
 
You should buy his extra if he still has it.

Wow, I did not know he had an extra! Sending PM next!!!

Oh man, sorry to hear about the family emergency, definitely understandable. If you can make it that would be amazing. Don't worry about timing if you are coming from MN- the gameroom will stay open for you!
