One arcade closes... Another opens....

[RGP]

An official opening ceremony like this needs someone prolific from the gaming world.

Realistic suggestions?

 

[Nintendo Arcade]

Billy Mitchell

Johns arcade

Larry Grayson

 

[TonyElyod]

LARRY'S DEAD ISN'T HE ???

...... SHUT THAT "COFFIN DOOR"

"THE STOODS".... CHARGES TOO MUCH

(SO HIS MRS TOLD ME !!!)

 

[Fuzzy]

Jon Stoodley.

If Jon's not available, I guess Eugene Jarvis or Tomohiro Nishikado will have to do.

 

[virtvic]

Billy Mitchell of course, or buy me a big tie and I'll do it.

Is he dead
Oh didn't know

 

[Purity]

I know the perfect person. He is a British television presenter, but he is also an actor and entrepreneur and photographic model. He is an avid collector of classic arcade games.

How about Iain Lee? It would be something that would genuinely interest him I should think.

yep he is cool

 

[Pacman83]

Wouldn't it be great to have Walter there

 

[muddymusic]

Yes it would Jon. Yes it would.

 

[frothmeister]

Jon could you get JLC down there?

Just make sure he leaves his bird at home, we don't want it to all kick off if she tries speaking to him while he's playing Galaga.

I have the following volunteer list for this Saturday:

Snap584

TonyElyod

ShaunHolley

Fuzzy

Purity

Philv85

Obviously, myself and Andy will be there.

BUT

Hold your horses as i'm having trouble organising a van to move the rest of the machines on Thur/Fri.

 

[Purity]

How many sack trucks are there and is anyone bringing any ?

 

[RGP]

We have 2 plus a skateboard (board with 4 heavy duty castors), i'm hoping to get another by the weekend but if anyone else has one they should definitely bring it (most arcade collectors should have a sack truck).

Please make sure your truck is labelled as yours.

Is there a date set for the opening yet? It would be good to mark it out in the house diary.

Sorry , I don't do Facebook, Twitter and all that modern stuff.
