Its creeping up again soon.  The wired will be back this year, the news and games list was just posted here...

http://scmb.sakuracon.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=18398&start=0

  • Dance Dance Revolution EXTREME
  • Dance Dance Revolution SuperNOVA
  • Pop n Music 13
  • Guitar Freaks 11 and Drum Mania 10
  • Soul Calibur 2
  • Tetris Grand Master 3
  • Initial D ver. 4 with Link Play
  • Street Fighter IV

I'm actually looking forward to this year way more then the past couple of ones.  I'm happy to see arcade games again, thanks Bill for the support!

I won't be able to run a Pop'n tournament this year due to being in artist alley, but if someone else wants to run it, I could probably help at some points.  I just can't commit the time though.

If you want to read more about the event, just check out the web site...

There won't be time for any official tournaments other than what you see.  You can always freestyle though as long as it's not abusing the machine...

I'm really looking forward to SNOVA, just so I can freestyle "Ballad For You", "Be In My Paradise", and "I'll Make Love to You" all in one set...preferably while fondling someone. Cheesy

Oh wow. I actually might not be able to go to this due to a class scheduling conflict the day of the tournament. God damn. I'll know by this Friday I guess...

You better be there, bro.  I also need you to be there to confirm my great attack scores in case my camera decides to not work again like it did last time I went to the arcade. :/ (or in case my batteries just die)

I'm heading up for this on thursday around 3-4p.  Probably hit up Gameworks for a bit or just walk around.

I would go up on Thursday and do stuff and pick up my badge, but I don't think I'd have a place to stay Sad

So this is my first time going to Sakuracon. Can someone answer a few quick Questions?

-For this tournament, I know when (4 PM Friday) but I do not know WHERE it is at. Can someone tell me what area it will be in and when are the times we can show up for the qualifier song?

-If I pre-paid for the entire weekend, where should I go to pickup my passes? I won't be getting to the convention center until after 1PM on Friday, so does this change anything?

-Will I need quarters to play on the machines or participate in the tourny?

The tournament will be in the Wired arcade gaming room. As far as I know, this is on the 4th floor near all the other gaming stuff. It should probably be more clear on the day of the convention. Sorry for not being more specific, but I haven't been told anything either.

Head directly to the Registration booths. They'll have your badges.

The machines will be on freeplay the whole convention. Cheesy

Very NICE!

and I take it that the V3 machines are the ones that will be at SK?
That would be bomb diggity.

I'm not entirely sure (no one tells me anything, haha), but I would assume so. Bill, if you're reading this... Cheesy

Is that at the Convention Center entrance?

I realize these are all probably really lame questions, but the FAQs on Sakuracon.org, while very useful for what to do at the convention, didn't really help with the simple logistics of where to get badges, etc.

That's the first place I'm checkin to go get my badge on thursday.

I don't know if they do things the same way that PAX does, but I would believe they probably would. When you walk into the convention center, there are flights of escalators. Take them up to the 4th floor, go immediately left, then straight to the back of the hallway and there are counters for check-in/registration there.  If it's not, I'm sure there will be plenty of signs telling you where to go.

Worst case scenario, you can wander around until security stops you, then ask them where you go to pick up your badge.  That's what I did last year. Tongue

Anyway, I need to go to sleep now.  I've got a 2-hour bike ride and a 4-hour train ride tomorrow, and I need to be up in 8 hours to get all my shit done.

btw, train departs from Portland at 4:20pm lololol

What time can we start the qualifiers at? Or is this still unknown?

Haha...I'm not that unorganized. Amber's helping out too. Qualifiers start at 3. Knock yourself out!

Just as a notice for everyone:

I went down there today. GFDM and both DDRs are working absolutely perfectly. Amber and I both had some AAAs today, it's working fine.

TGM on the other hand...

Woot! I'll see you all in a couple of minutes I guess, lol.
I was gonna cosplay today, but then the sudden reality of me playing a Didder tourny in a three piece suit didn't sound quite pleasing, lol.
