So, I just bought a 40 bucks 720p, 60 fps camera. It comes with a helmet mount apparently. I am planning to take the camera and laptop to E3. I will see if there is any way to connect my laptop to some power outlet and the camera to my PC and just instantly stream video from the E3 booth. That probably won't work out, but at the very least I can get up to 1 hour of play time on the camera's battery. That would mean at the very least 1 hour of playtime per day which would be a total of 4 hours (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday) at the very least. :)



Also I'd like to ask permission to a Mod to sticky this thread if that is possible. Also I will be making a "Video Compilation" thread where I will post all the videos I record and a "My impressions of the game" thread which will have a detailed summary of everything I learn from playing the demo. Should I make those separate threads or just one thread? Should I make the threads in the E3 subsection or in the general subsection (Since the threads are actually about the game itself and not E3 I would guess on general). Is it possible to get them stickied once E3 starts and I actually post things on it?

Videos and impressions should probably go in the same thread. The boards get clogged up rather easily as it is. At least, if you mean your own personal observations. If you're trying to set up a mega-thread for all the attendees to share their videos and impressions... Well, don't do that. Alax already has his own thread, and there aren't too many other people going. Just make a "Raykz" thread :)

I would just cancel the preorder next time you're in the area and get the game from a store closer to you. That's what I'll be doing!

Hi all. I'm the guy who made this video for the People's Challenger Contest: http://instagram.com/p/ogeMhYGo0h/

Just saying that in case someone recognizes me. I'll be trying to go to the Best Buy in Gaithersburg, MD, with some friends on the 11th and 14th. Feel free to say hi/introduce yourself/talk with me and whatnot if you want to. My tag is Vhat/VhatDeHel, but I prefer that people call me by my name, which is Yari. Would be cool to see some of you there!

Hm, did I link to the wrong video or are you joking? I appreciate the sentiments but I wasn't the one who won the contest haha, I wish.
Sorry, I misread your post. It would be cool if you had won, though!

Hmm, I didn't seem to get added to the OP; I'm going to be at the one in Overland Park, KS on both days (and a few of my friends will probably show up too). It looks like Wednesday I'll have company from at least one other smashboarder.

EDIT: Oh, you added all this stuff to the OP after I posted (I was on the first page):

Debating still but i might go to the Citrus Heights Best Buy. Its the closest one. Apparently Stockton's Best Buy * doesn't qualify* according to Best Buy employees. So Citrus Heights is the next one closest to me. If I do ill be taking my brothers with me. :)

Oh, wait a minute... I'm marching in parades both days... well then... curse you, marching band!!!
You can always "call in sick" for at least one of those days. Do some classic hooky. Like seriously, what difference will one absent [insert instrument of choice] make?

Well, I haven't played Smash in a few years, so I'm rusty as crap. Still, glad to have you on board if you show up! :)

Looks like I'll be going solo in terms of who I can meet from the boards. Not many Smashboard users in Michigan eh?
