w

what days are this on? also no bus?

6/11 and 6/14. Only available at certain time periods, however, much like with E3 2013.

 

[Oracle_Summon]

My planned 15 minute drive became an 1:30 one. I guess I should just wait until the 3DS version comes out.

 

[Shellshock821]

Nice, it's only 15 minutes from me in Durham NC. Definitely going to try and make it out to it.

 

[Pazzo.]

Hm. Looks like there's one about 40-60 minutes away from where I live. I'll try to go, record then take notes if my schedule lets me.

 

[Ash4830]

So is this for America only?

 

[SlickWylde]

I only have to travel a little over an hour to Culver City, sweet! California FTW!

 

[LordShade67]

And once again, Mississippi gets screwed out of something hype-worthy. To everyone else who can make the trip, have fun. :/

 

[Layupfreak]

Whoever is going to one in Maryland, I will be going to the Best Buy in Glen Burnie. Let me know so we can play against each other and get some good footage if we can. I think the original post of this thread should be edited where the each state has a list of who is going and to which best buy so we could connect better as a smash community. Just my two-cents, I'm super pumped.

 

[DahremRuhar]

Ironically, Central New York was involved with the E3 2013 event, so that seems quite ridiculous, unless SmashFest requires a Best Buy that's bigger than what Central and Western New York can offer.

^this. And we have a really big one in Syracuse, and a decent sized one a few miles north. I'm just gonna call them.

To be honest, we have like 3 in and around Syracuse. They're probably just waiting to reveal more locations.

Only 30 minutes away. But I might have no one to take me. But I will try to convince somebody!

I GET TO PLAY SMASH BROS. 4!

Let me know the story then, because I don't live very far from any of the Central New York Best Buy locations.

 

[Wario Bros.]

not a single one in South Carolina...

They were at my Best Buy last year so I hope the list gets updated to include SC (note the list did make an update last year).

 

[sunshinesan]

It's an hour away. I don't think I'm hyped enough to drive there just to play it. I mean, once the game comes out, I'll play the **** out of it. Gotta have patience.

 

[Aninymouse]

Chapel Hill location in Ohio, hell to the yes. I'mma be all over that.

that's the area I grew up in yo, but I'm in VA, now.

I live in Fredericksburg, VA. I can either take an hour and a half drive to Charlottesville, a two and a half drive to Chesapeake, or an almost hour drive to West Broad Street in some place called Glen Allen where I've never been or even heard of before.

But PaulKagebein's post makes me want to go check with my local Best Buy to find out if they're secretly doing it too. If not, at least the one in Glen Allen isn't that far.

PLEASE COME TO WEST BROAD

Unless you're on the extreme west side of the Fredericksburg area and you;'re going to cut down south through the back roads, Short Pump is by far the closest, and hey, I'll be at that one!

I'm in Spotsylvania County, but it's still not too far at all. It's just a matter of it's convenient for me since I'll need a ride to get down there and my main person for it may have something to do that day and I don't want to make them cancel it over me wanting to play a video game.

Oh please. @_@ I took a 2 hour drive to go to the event last year. This is your one chance to play this version of smash until possibly early next year (winter) so personally... I think 1.5 hours beats frickin' 5-7 months.

I hope that you're right, because it just seems very odd that one of my nearest Best Buy locations was involved with E3 2013, but is not on the list of E3 2014 locations.

Oh please. @_@ I took a 2 hour drive to go to the event last year. This is your one chance to play this version of smash until possibly early next year (winter) so personally... I think 1.5 hours beats frickin' 5-7 months.

Not everyone has that kind of luxury, however, especially if work gets in your way.

 

[Superyoshiom]

There's no demo in my city and the closest city is too far...

But the 3DS version is coming out sooner then that. Plus, I barely know the directions there, my best bet is to put the address in my GPS and have someone travel with me so I don't get lost.

 

[Golden Gallade]

Well all the ones in Pennsylvania are to far so I guess I'm goin to Maryland.

[Snagrio]

It won't be held at the location closest to me, but I still lucked out and can go to the second closest (an acceptable 40 minute drive or so).

 

[Poots]

I live in Nashville, TN, (the capitol of Tennessee) which has like 5 best buys in the down town area, which is 15 mins away. Instead of THE CAPITOL OF THE STATE they have Knoxville, Memphis, and Jaxsonville. All of those about 3 and a half miles away. Which one should I go to than?

I know exactly how you feel right now.

Hey, welcome to Smashboards, btw!

 

[RelaxAlax]

OMG ONE IS SO CLOSE TO ME YES YES !!!

We're back on for analysis ... If i can get a cam.

Two in my City. Oh sweet baby jesus, best week ever

 

[Silvera]

Of all places, mine has to be so far away..

 

[Norm]

Awww no demo in Newfoundland. *Sob* Why does Canada end at Nova Scotia. I mean there's only one best buy in Newfoundland it's not even like you need to pick the best location for it lol. There's only one!

 

[Souless_shadow]

YES! I can go! But unfortunately it is in the worst part of town so if I go I'm probably going to be shanked. Oh well,worth it!

 

[Aninymouse]

I always carry a knife on me, no matter where I am or what I'm doing. Pepper spray can work for those who don't want to carry knives.

 

[N0ble1]

Just to jump in while lurking... Bullets make the best man-stopper; if you can conceal carry, do it.

Hopefully my local best buy will have SmashFest, the nearest location to me is probably 50+ miles away from me.

Forget the hour and a half bus ride, I'm so there. (Calgary)

 

[Starbound]

It pays to live within walking distance from Best Buy.

I'll for sure come on Wednesday.

 

[Twewy]

Oh boy oh boy Johnson City here I come.

 

[Crazc]

dis is bs. locations in maryland are really stupid. places with pretty small populations, actually. why not go closer to the nations capitol, or you know, go to the POPULATION

 

[bentendo222]

It doesn't say Pensacola on there, but it does say the exclusions are subject to change. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

 

[yoonb]

Alright, nice. One of the locations is near where I attend church, which is only ten minutes away from me. Maybe they'll understand if I show up to service late.

But I'm really hoping the construction lightens up by then. Roads are packed right now because of it.

 

[Critzilean]

I hope there are enough videos and whatnot to tide me over until the 3DS version comes out, since I can't be bothered to drive 2 hours away just to play smash.

 

[Wii Twerk Trainer]

I'm attending the Smash fest in murrietta! California. Just in case anyone else near there is going to that one as well.

 

[Tetraplex]

A couple of friends and I are driving about 1.5 hours to the one in Hoover, AL! See you there!
