Retro/Modern Video Gaming Meetup: Secret Samus Edition!!!
Details
It's that time of year again! Time to celebrate the season, and for the yearly appearance of the Santa Dragon!
We will be doing our usual Secret Samus this year, but as always, participation is optional. Those who wish to participate can bring a wrapped gift. We ask that you don't break the bank on the gift keeping it around $10 to $20 dollars. You are also welcome to bring a couple extra gifts as well for those who might not be able to get one. It is the time of giving after all.
We are also going to be doing a potluck again like we did for Gamesgiving last month. Like Secret Samus, participation is also optional. Those who do take park you can bring a side dish, snacks, dessert or drinks. Also like Secret Samus you don't have to break the bank or your back for your side dish. We will be cooking a ham as the main course along with mashed potatoes and a green bean casserole. To prevent too many of one dish we'll start a thread in our discord channel to coordinate eats.
Here's hoping you'll join us!
Normal details follow:
Vaccine verification will be made via either presentation of your Vaccine card at the door, or a photo of the updated card posted to the vaccine channel of the group Discord.
Masks are now optional.
Our setup, as it's currently configured, should allow for even better social distancing than we had before, with the secondary gaming area in a completely different room.
We've got a decently sized collection of systems ranging from the old 8-16 bit days, on through to all the current systems, including the PS5, Wii U, Nintendo Switch, Ouya, PS4 Pro, Xbox One, PC, Nvidia Shield TV, Evercade VS, and even an Amiga 1200, as well as a decent number of controllers. Please bring any Wii U pro, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, or PS4 controllers you have though, as we could use those, and any games that people might bring would also be welcome. We have a second and third screen with classic consoles and a spare PS4, and have some streaming from our PC, thanks to our Steam Link. We also have an arcade cab, filled to the brim with games! It's also got HDMI inputs. If you have a system you would like to bring along, please do so! Here's hoping to see you all here!!!
