Why not a crt though? You play on a projector?
I don't play on a projector normally, but I don't own any small CRTs (I have household regular TVs, but they are to damn big).
When I do play on projectors I don't see much of a difference other than the fact it's being projected onto a wall.

There is definitely no wall space to use at the venue if that's what your projector requires.

Playing on a projector would be cool. Me and my friends played Friendlies today at school with my Teacher's projector. (SSB64)

I wanted to say the same thing, but I've never played on one so I didn't know if I would be right.
So... bring it, but if its a struggle then don't, because not many people will really play on it.

Projectors have horrendous lag it would probably just end up a friendly setup
Maybe a projector just for the viewing pleasure of the spectators at the venue, and we just play on a regular TV. But I dunno how we can do that, just an idea I guess.

The only way to do that is to split the video from the composite cable in the TV to the projector. Now, the problem is that I have to use my double ended composite cord for my own recording...

Well, we're in quite a pickle here.

Why not just forget the projector and run this like a normal tournament?

From what it sounds like to me, I won't want to use if if it's laggy. If it isn't laggy I'm fine with having it up and playing on it, as long as you can set it up and everything.

Yeah just thought about this. Sorry Violet but at the venue there really just won't be room for a projector. It's only two extra dollars, you'll be fine. :)
That's fine, I already said I way going to pay full venue price anyway.
We should have other games like F-Zero GX on the side for people who wait though.

Now that I think about it, maybe in the future we should have an F-Zero tournament cup race thing.

For a side event suggestion, we should have Low Tier Singles/Doubles.

This thread is being suggested with projectors as setups and fx zero for side events.

So we're having a projectors only F-Zero tournament? Fine by me.

Sorry for going out there, but now lets try to stay on subject.
I will hopefully have two others coming with me, are you guys bringing anyone along?

Really? I remember seeing it almost anywhere because people would turn in their used copies.

I haven't seen it in a store in over a year. Bigger game stores like GameStop no longer accept GameCube trade ins. Retro game stores are more likely to have them but I get the impression that it sells out pretty quickly there since it's a popular game. Then again, I live in Houston, it might be easier to find in Dallas.
