Due to the large amount of potential guests we are moving the venue! Don't worry; it's just down the street, features a large air-conditioned area with plenty of tables and chairs, has a dynamite internet connection and is just feet away from awesome food/drink/football. The Iowa Hillel House has been gracious enough to let us nerd out in their space. Call Game Geeks at (319) 471-2126 if you need additional directions!
122 E Market St, Iowa City, IA 52245
Also, the doors will be opening at noon but it will be crazy downtown with the Iowa v Iowa State game!
So plan accordingly and arrive early or ramp park.

WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP RE-RECREATION - FREE
Contestants will play a specialized reproduction game cartridge. A player has 6 minutes and 21 seconds to play, which is divided up into three mini-games. The first mini-game of the competition is to collect 50 coins in Super Mario Bros.. The next mini-game is a version of Rad Racer where players must complete a specialized Nintendo World Championship course. The final mini-game is Tetris, and this lasts until time expires. Once time expires, a player's score is totaled using the following formula: (Super Mario Bros. score) + (Rad Racer score x 10) + (Tetris score x 25) = final score
HIGH SCORE CHALLENGE - FREE
Can you hang with the best? Get your initials on the scoreboard of these classic games and win. Each game has a scoreboard and if you crack the top 3 you'll get some marvelous goodies. Whoever is on TOP of the scoreboard will take home a copy of the game; some of which are rare, CIB, etc.
SPEED RUN COMPETITION - $1/RUN
Play a number of games and have their time recorded. Running out of lives will result in a system reset, continues may not be used. The fastest time at the end of the day will take home some awesome prizes! (Mega Man 2, Contra, Super Mario Bros, Batman, and more!)
