Re: Anime North -2016- Hype Thread
xiao and I were talking about AN as a con the other night
we agreed that renting a venue and having our own party of drinking and rhythm games meeting up with people would make a better con than AN lmao. cuz like AN itself is -ok- in terms of what the con itself has to offer. but really 90% of the reason I visit every year is for the people. if we ever became severely uninterested in attending AN further down the road having a giant sleepover would be another good option. also rachel is adam coming with you?

Re: Anime North -2016- Hype Thread
having attended AN every year since 2008, the con itself is really boring and uneventful for me personally—AN has no redeeming qualities for me at this point.
I only go because it's the one time in the year where I get to hang with online and irl buddies all at once. idk if I'll end up going next year, but it's basically dependent on who actually goes.

Re: Anime North -2016- Hype Thread
Reminder: Film a game or two of Dutch Blitz.. especially is Smartdude is playing.
Or, you all could (and should) stop by our hotel room at some point and watch/play with us. It's a crazy fun card game! (or as tall Chris calls it: Battle Solitaire) |

Re: Anime North -2016- Hype Thread
We are trying to work that out right now. if everything works out, yes he will. Also a Halifax party sounds MEGA legit... I love the East coast!
Quote:
Honestly if we could work it out I think it would be super cool to make Magfest the con that everyone from FFR goes to. I know there are a bunch of us who have gone already. It is not just a game convention but also a music convention... two interests that everyone from FFR will have in common. Just some food for thought for those who are travelling to get to AN |

I'd totes be up for switching up the game for 2017, even if only for a year or somethin'
I mean I went to a furry convention and it was pretty amazing JUST SAYIN but in all seriousness, I go where the people are. I mean I really like anime at this point (very different from where I was at in 2013), but AN panels are mostly just a "well I'm here, and I bought this pass, might as well" kind of thing for me. would go wherever ppl are @, whether that's a con or the roof of someone's school building or idk Last edited by bmah; 05-21-2016 at 12:08 AM.. |

Re: Anime North -2016- Hype Thread
MAGFest is awesome because:
24 hour arcade that has most things you'd want. Multiples of pop'n, iidx, sound voltex, para para paradise (THERE WERE THREE THIS YEAR) and pretty much everything else. Everything is on free play and honestly I could spend the entire con in the arcade. Getting drunk and then going to play rhythm games at 3 AM is an awesome experience. It's at the most ballin venue ever. It's a swanky hotel that is built just to have conventions... there is basically a little mini-village at the bottom of the hotel, and everything else you'd need (except cigarettes and hard liquor - buy those first if you want them and go to MAG) is available within a 5-minute walk of the hotel. There are many restaurants, a CVS, a little grocery store that has beer and wine and basic groceries, and some cute little tourist-y shops. Super awesome musical guests. There is a designated chiptune space and they usually get really cool chip and non-chip guests. One of my best convention moments ever was seeing a composer for Katamari Damacy (Yuu Miyake) do a DJ set, with a friend of mine whose favourite game is also Katamari! We had a blast dancing and freaking out... it was just an awesome moment. Another awesome moment was seeing Chipzel at MAG, as she is a chiptune idol of mine anyway....... Anime North will be fun too ^^ it's the people who make the biggest difference honestly. BUT Mag is fucking amazing, honestly I will never miss it again if I can avoid it |

Re: Anime North -2016- Hype Thread
kind of grown tired of conventions in general over here, but if I had to do one in Canada after this I'd do Otakuthon. It was probably as legit as I could want from a convention.
