Event - E3 Invitational 2014 Smashboarders unite! (Come and check who you can meet at your local best buy!)

[Phaazoid]

Apparently Gaithersburg MD and Culver City CA will be very packed by the looks of it.

Some of the gaithersburg should just go the extra few miles to wheaton >.>

 

[obeymalleo]

You're going to meet three other Smashboards users then, since my ride is with Triangles, and I plan on meeting up with ToothiestAura as well.

Well, hopefully we can all get equal playing time I guess; we can take turns, right?

But there's no Five Guys in Wheaton (i think)

So this just in. Nintendo World Store will also have a demo, but the event will run from Wednesday to Sunday and will last throughout the day. They also might have the 3DS version playable as well.

Well, if it's just the four of us and a couple of friends I would imagine we would get a ton of playtime each. I imagine there will be quite a few other people there, but here's hoping I'm wrong. I would imagine that a BestBuy/Nintendo rep would monitor times and turns.

In fact, forget the Smash Demo!

I may have lost sight of why I'm here.

I mean, I would wake up early for either

 

[malva00]

Going to the San Jose store on Wednesday. SEE YOU THERE.

 

[IronFish]

I am going to be at the smash fest in Lynwood both days, though this probably doesn't mean anything

 

[Jumpman84]

@ Chiroz , an update to my info. I'll most likely be solo at Saturday's event.

 

[Chiroz]

So my own info if anyone is interested.

Apart from attending E3 all 3 days and going to the invitational, I will also attend the following Best Buys:


I will be going to Culver City, CA on Wednesday 11th. I will be arriving around 7:00 PM and staying until the event ends.

I will be going to Costa Mesa, CA on Saturday 14th (unless Culver City is incredibly empty. If it is I will probably go to Culver City again this day). I will be arriving as soon as the store opens and will leave when the event ends.


My preferred name is Nick. I am a 5'11 dark skinned latino. Probably carrying a black backpack, a Zelda gold 3DS, an iphone 5 with a teal cover and an incredibly small blue camera.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

If only Nintendo could permit GameStop stores to have the Smash 4 demo as well. It stinks knowing that all the demo locations are way out of my area.

Either my eyes are deceiving me, or there are actually some Best Buy locations that are attending that have not been mentioned on the Best Buy website. I checked the following link, and it appears that one of my nearby Best Buy locations will be involved once more.

http://e3.nintendo.com/smashfest/

For Central New York residents, you'll have to go to the Best Buy at Destiny USA.

 

[Cpt.]

@ Mario & Sonic Guy Well Hartford and NYC are both evenly far away from me....... *tear

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

@ Cpt. : It's a lucky break for me though. Sadly, it doesn't sound like the weather will be favorable tomorrow, but it seems that Saturday will be good.

[Aninymouse]

See you at the Short Pump Best Buy, VA folks. My yellow Pikmin hat is in the front seat of my car, ready to go. I will look absolutely ridiculous. Please take candid shots and laugh at my expense! Something must justify the existence of this hat, ha ha.

I'll be arriving a bit late. Probably getting there around 5PM or so. Gonna try out DK first!

Is that directed at me? My info was already formatted into the OP a while ago. I was just posting again as a heads-up to any Richmond players who might want to join me today. I'm well aware of the approved format, but I do appreciate the front-and-center reminder for new posters.

 

[SlickWylde]

Has anyone checked to see if the Best Buy in Culver City is still doing it? I've heard a lot aren't doing it anymore. I tried calling but they're not open yet, and I'm gonna be at work all day.

Heading to the Best Buy in Century III in about an hour. I'll keep some people updated if they want concrete info. Can't waitttttt.

 

[ScottyWK]

The Dallas event is kinda a CF right now...

 

[SmashBroski]

Anyone went to the Best Buy at Garden State Plaza in Paramus, NJ?

I was the kid in the Project M shirt!

 

[relaxedexcorcist]

Don't know if anyone who said they were going saw me at the Gaithersburg one. I was near the front of the line the whole time i was there, waiting for my turn to play and recording matches with an iPhone. I left like an hour after the event ended because the line was way to long for me to consider waiting to play a second time. I was wearing a blue shirt, and long gray shorts.

 

[Heavy C4]

**** NYC best buy.

5 hours and I was cut right at the end. ****ing ****.

 

[Aninymouse]

Waited OVER THREE HOURS at the Short Pump Best Buy on West Broad Street. Met Andrew and some other cool guys. Not sure if he was the same Andrew from Smashboards. I did wear my RIDICULOUSLY DWEEBISH yellow Pikmin hat. Go big or go home, I say.

One of the employees there from Nintendo was terrifying. Like, he made me feel really uncomfortable. The main Nintendo rep was so friendly and clean-cut, but this guy... ponytail and pink barrette, pink ear guages, overweight, hairy, beard, smoking a tobacco pipe INDOORS, and just never saying a word and being creepy and shall I say queer and intimidating. All the high school boys around me were too hyped up to even pay attention to him, but... anyway. Sheesh.

 

[Plain Yogurt]

Twas indeed me. Guess I shoulda been a bit more clear about who I was, sorry! Yeah that guy was totally weird. I don't think he said a word. The matches were pretty fun!

 

[SlickWylde]

Anyone go to the one in Culver City last night? How bad was it?

 

[ToothiestAura]

@ obeymalleo
Did you end up going yesterday?

@ Mr.Seven
You said only Saturday right? Maybe show up a bit early, we did that an the wait was only about an hour. They also had the 3DS version.

 

[SuperMii3D]

Did anyone in Arizona attend yesterday? I did but I didnt make it in

Actually, I showed up yesterday, since I got mixed up on the days that my friend was off from work to go. I showed up early myself. You might have even saw me and not have noticed it. I was wearing a Dalek shirt that said "Exterminate".

I didn't notice. I stood out: my pants where white cords with blue and green tye-die patterns. You'd probably remember seeing those.

Yeah, I remember seeing those. Oh well, if I knew that were you, I would've stopped to say hi.

Ah, oh well. I was gonna post to say what I was wearing, but I was thinking you would be there Saturday not yesterday.
