Title: 4th of July Party
Post by: roflmao on June 17, 2011, 03:02:30 PM
My wife and I are throwing a 4th of July party and I wanted to open the invitation to you gang.  I'm sure most of you are too far away to even consider it, but I thought I'd throw it out there in case any of you want to whoop it up with a fellow Turbo Fan.

We'll be providing food (and drink!) for carnivores as well as vegetarians (I'm a carnivore and my wife is a vegan). I've got a small arsenal of fireworks that just can't wait for the 4th to arrive.  We've got a small pool so feel free to bring a bathing suit.  And of course I'll have the TG-16/CD set up as well as a number of other systems.

Anyway, just let me know if you're thinking about making it - we can probably come up with sleeping arrangements for a handful of people if need be.

We live in Fayetteville, NC.

Groovy.

I'm way too far away, but may I suggest running Galaga 90? Love playing that game on the fourth.

Great idea! 

Unfortunately I don't have Galaga 90... yet.  It's pretty high on my wanted list though, so maybe I'll acquire it before the 4th.  Playing Galaga on the NES wouldn't be the same...  :)

Well playing any of the Bomberman's would be good.  Just like the 4th you get to blow shit up.   My wife and I aren't too far away.  We're in Wilmington, NC  sadly though we are going to be out of town.  Have fun on the 4th though. :)

Well maybe this will be a precursor for a Southern Turbofest someday. :)

Bomberman is a great idea btw!  I've only got a turbo pad and a turbo stick currently, but I *DO* have Saturn Bomberman and 5 or 6 controllers and a tap for that system so I may have to have that running.  Good thinking.

Thinking back, I think the last time I had a good group of people playing Bomberman was probably 1996 or so.  We played Bomberman '93 on the TG-16.  They came over on at least a weekly basis for months.  Good times.
