Just remembered - got an original XBox (unmodded though) that I can bring with me too. Again only the 1 controller but i'll bring it along none-the-less.

Got myself booked in so the booze can flow this time without worrying about the drive home ;)

I'm heading up from Portsmouth so if I can pick anyone up on the way I'd be happy to.

Don't forget your DS's

Oh yeah, just in case is anyone travelling to the meet from the North Wales Coast area? I've moved to Anglesey last weekend and am having to rethink my travel habits :D

I'll be bringing some spare GC controllers (is anyone hauling a cube there? I can supply one if not. Someone else neds to bring Monkey Ball etc :D)

Would it be a good idea to keep a list of what consoles/games are being brought so we can coordinate games to bring?

I'm thinking of bringing my VCS along - got to check it's still working though, last time I used it, the paddle controllers seemed to be a bit wonky...

I believe bringing a DS along should be mandatory?

*sniff* Still not got round to buying myself a DS for two reasons:

i) Too many 360 and Cubie games I want to buy
ii) If I buy one then it's probably gonna cost me another £300 coz the missus and the kids will also want one.

*sigh*

You should mod it so you can play MAME on it and use it as a mediaplayer for Xvids, MP3's, etc., it's very much worthwile. :)

Tempted to bring mine along, but I think not. I'd be too worried about it not surviving being roughly handed by the bagagehandlers. :(

Getting it modded is on my list of things to do now that the warranty has expired. But i'm shite at soldering so doing it myself is a no-no. Need to find somewhere that can do it for me at a reasonable price. :)
