Sorry to disappoint but I myself won't be able to partake in DS games or Wii games as I don't have either consoles at the moment. I can however do retro gaming. I may be able to do Wii things if I can get my cords for my new Wii (granted that it even works

)

Regardless, please come out and have lots of fun!!!!

 

[Another World]

i'll try to be around on Saturday for some gaming. i might do some mario kart ds or get nestopia running for some RC Pro AM II. my building's connection is a very slow DSL so i'll have to see how it all works out.

[Randamin]

Oh my I haven't been to one of these in months so excited to participate.

I will try and be available for most of the three days hopefully nothing else comes up and takes my time.

As for the games that I will be playing well might be mostly Wii and DS but if none show up who want to participate then I could try some retro gaming myself.

Update: Just found out that I'm going to be busy on Friday but on Saturday I will get on the channel to play some gamez.

 

[Pheinte]

I got my Wii 2 days ago, and I already have mario kart + wheel, so I think it's time to play online

 

[Deleted member 473940]

I will be on playing SSFIV 4 on the 3DS and Mario Kart Wii

!

 

[ShinyJellicent12]

Would this work with ClIRC?
I can only be on Saturday, though. And I only have DS available at night

I'll be on Mario Kart, and I don't actually know how you could do retro gaming (because I have SMB NES but I'm not sure how to get it to connect to others... :|)
I think Pokemon works too (hehehe)
---
But first, I have to fix my WiFi, it won't connect...

 

[chyyran]

I'll hopefully be on for some Tetris DS, Advance wars, and MarioKart DS. Hell, I'll even do Pokemon if anyone wants.

BTW, I made a Mibbit link for it,
http://wbe002.mibbit.com/?server=irc2.GBAt...%23GBAtemp-wifi

It should automatically connect after you give it a nick to connect as.

 

[Schlupi]

YES. YES. YEEEEEESSSSS

Anybody who wants to Jump (play Jump Ultimate Stars) I CHALLENGE YOU You shall not win.

I don't cheat or use the Big 3, by the way.


Anybody who is up for some coop retro shoot me a PM! I'll be around

I am already thinking of the following games:

*Super Bomberman 5
*Turtles In Time
*Contra (ANY)
*Animal Crossing (Wii or DS)
*Mario Kart (DS, Wii)
*BALLOON FIGHT
*Polkamans

Those are just a few I thought of.

 

[benbop1992]

I prefer to use an x86 based irc client compared to a web based client like mibbit because of a negative experience I had in the past.

 

[Algot]

wuld be nice to play some Mario Kart Wii.

BTW this link:
