Mods: Please move this if this is in the wrong place!

I should have posted this aaaaages ago, really (and I've already long since posted it elsewhere, so most of you will have already seen this). In less than a month, there will be an arcade expo that I'm helping out with, organised by a couple of my friends over at Arcade Otaku. It will be in Northampton, United Kingdom on the 18th and 19th July, 2009.

S'not going to be free entrance (sadly), but once in all games will be on freeplay. There will definitely be some Bemani games (I'm taking my DDR cab for a start, and have heard rumours of others too, but can't talk about that till it's all confirmed Big Grin), and also *plenty* of other cracking games and arcade cabinets will be there in force. You'll even get to play on my Egret II cab (probably running some insane bullet hell shooter), amongst the 200+cabinets there. Now for the blurb:

Insert Coin 2009 – this year’s brand new arcade game expo - 18-19th July!

Welcome to the best expo-spamming thread ever: this is going to be the biggest gaming event of the year!

It’s with great pleasure to announce Insert Coin 2009, a dedicated arcade gaming expo taking place over the weekend of July 18th-19th in Northampton, UK.

This is your chance to help re-kindle true social gaming by meeting fellow hobbyists, butting heads in competition, and sampling hundreds of exciting new titles old and new from developers such as:

Cave
Capcom
SNK
Raizing
Irem
Data East

And many more...

And featuring games such as:

Street Fighter 4
Death Smiles
Dodonpachi Daifukkatsu
R-Type Leo
Arcana Heart
Night Slashers

And over a hundred more!

The show will be all access, featuring dedicated machines, classic cabs and new candy cabinets from Japan. You only pay for your ticket, and after that all games are totally free.
There are a number of competitions being held over the weekend catering to all tastes: Fighting games, Shoot-em-ups, racing games etc. and a raffle in which two lucky winners will be receiving either an Egret 2 arcade cabinet or a Namco Cyberlead 2.

In addition, Insert Coin will feature tech talks around arcade hardware and cabinets from the experts, and PCB’s and a number of other wares will be on sale at the various stands around the venue. Save your pennies, you might find a bargain!

We’re looking forward to having visitors from all over Europe, and it would be fantastic to see all the members of the forum in attendance so we can put names to faces.

All you need to do to check out the full line up of games and find out the details of exactly what’s going on, is pop over to the Insert Coin 2009 website, now open. Just click the banner below:

Hope to see some of you there Challenge
