NintendoNarp Recap! (finally :p )

Yeah I know it's a bit late, but as I'm preparing for a new job ( gonna start my own company this month ),
setting up a mariage AND organising the next EURONARP, I've been pretty busy the last few weeks :-)

SO as a small appetiser for the BIG euroNARP coming up in exactly a month from now, here's the recap of
the NintendoNarp we did a few weeks back ( 10th of July ). As this was just a 'miniNARP', it only lasted 1
night ( "BIG" one is 2 nights and 3 days ). But what a night it was...

It all started on friday, I couldn't wait to get away from work so I left about 2 hours early to pick up Po0ky and
Poele at Po0ky's place. My car was loaded with games, peripherals, camera-equipment, chips, glorious
belgian beer, energy drinks and a whole bunch of cookies. Since I'm the guy who built "Teh Lair�", it was
quite important we got there first so we raced from Po0ky's place to "Teh Lair�" for a night where there's
nothing but games and a very fine haze...

We got to Teh Lair� about an hour later and started unwrapping right away. Since we only come here once
every few months, everything is "neatly" covered in dust-blankets, and most controllers/cabling/lightguns and
other shit is stashed away in carboard boxes under the seatcovers.

We just finished setting up the first Wii when it was time to pick up ZUbZub from the trainstation, so we
headed out, picked him up, stopped on the way back at a supermarket to stock up some more for the long
night, and picked up some of the legendary french fries from the local "Frituur" ( fries-shop :p ).

What followed was once again a whirlwind of games, cable-madness, mind-altering experiences and just
jolly good fun :-)

We went through all the classics, since we had every nintendo-console ever sold in EUrope ( except for the
virtual-boy ), we could basically experience anything we wanted from Nintendo's past, provided someone
brought the cartridge :-) For instance, we couldn't play the crowd-pleaser 'Goldeneye 64' since Poele didn't
bring it, so we threw in some 007-MP-Madness from the GameCUbe-era, and as it turns out, it wasn't half as
bad as we had feared. If course, there had to be some Mario Kart, but as nobody had brought the
cartridge/cds for that one either, we played the N64-version on the Wii with the Gamecube-controllers...
that's 3 generations at the same time!


so now it's on to the BIG EURONARP...

starting the 4th of September and ending the 6th of September at the usual place :-)

see you all there!
