............... I also offer to cover all the drinks as a donation for these fanatstic event ;D

Don't we have a Butcher under us ?  would be great for a BBQ  ;D ;D ;D

Although others have mentioned it too, I'm not too sure if I'm in favor of a BBQ for various reasons.
Space is reason one. A BBQ needs a lot of room to stand safe and of course there will be fumes...don't want those to reach the cabs ;)
Also, it means a lot of work and time. So, I'm not saying no right away, but it's not my preference right now....

Was just thinking: we MUST take a picture just like this in the street here !





Which reminds me:    I now officially declare Ridderkerk as the "Video Game Capital of Europe" !!!  (Now I have to get our major so crazy to sign for it ! ;) ;) ;)

Defenately! We have to get a couple of cheerleaders to make it look more realistc ;) I'm already in my personal planing phase and managed to get the trailer from my parents. So I can bring another cab if wanted. Maybe my generic Hyper Olympic...? A while ago, when space was VERY limited I put up artworks and PCBs for several classics on my german generic machines ... Turned out to be looking like midget versions of the real ones ...  ;D maybe I can bring one or two besides the PPII ... I made Frogger, Hyper Olympic, Galaxian, Donkey Kong, Pacman and Arkanoid ... You can choose one or we see which game is missing on the lineup at the end :wink:

Sounds great, that machine can be played up to 4 players, we should make a competition with some aracde related prizes. ;D ;D ;D
Btw. we should make some competitions also in some other classics. ;D

Hyperolympics with 4 players ? Do 2 take turns ? My personal preference would be Frogger though :D

Yes, it's two players simultanious, four players total. But it's great fun! Here is a pic of the first three ... if you have the space I can bring the PPII and one or two of these little rascals ... I have plenty of artworks and Panels that I can bring too (if wanted, because not dedicated?) for changing on the fly ;) takes about ten minutes to change the Frogger to a Galaxian or Arkanoid :D

I would never dare to bring my cheap-ass DK to a collectors meeting  ;D the HO looks beter than the official one here in germany ... I will bring that and the Frogger, if not otherwise on the spot ... if Andre gives his ok ;)

Well if we wouldn't have a original Nintendo DK here (for which we do have to arrange transport from Hilversum to Ridderkerk by the way) I wouldn't mind that German version at all.

:)
I think those "converts" look very nice. No problem to add them IMHO.
