I'm going to the NYC one and I plan to bring my son. Any GAFers making the invite only pilgrimage?
 
I'm going on the 29th...

If anyone else is interested, they give out 2 guest codes as well, but can only be used at the same time.

So Fri 29th at like 3-5
 
I can't wait for this Summer's national tours... you know they're going to do it again.

In 2006 me and a bunch of friends drove for miles to play the Wii, and the most impressive thing I played (you couldn't choose) was the neon air hockey thing on Wii Play. Seriously though, it impressed me at the time! Funny to think of that now
 
Hmm, I remember the Cube Club back before the GameCube came out. I went to two of them, the first one was sweet as hell because I got to play Pikmin, SSBM, Luigi's Mansion, and a bunch of other games a few months before the system was released....still have a bunch of swag from the events too :) Too bad this Wii U one is in New York, I'm from Chicago :/
 
I wish I was cool enough to get invited, although I'd have to take a bus to get there.

I JUST WANT AN EXCUSE TO GO TO NEW YORK CITY AND GO TO NINTENDO WORLD AND BUY TONS OF PIKMIN. And maybe another Kirby.

CURSE YOU MIYAMOTO.

I'm also wondering what games they'll let you play. I'd kill to go if you got to play Project P-100. Or give someone a Kit Kat Bar. Or even a Klondike Bar, but it'd be melted by the time I'd give it to you unless I brought it in a cooler or something but I'm not bringing a cooler since I'd have to carry it around all day.

We have a lot of Klondike bars here.

I'll probably have to wait for them to have a GameStop event, although I have no idea where they'll have it since the GameStop that had the 3DS event around here closed.
 
Hoping for a Chicago one. I went to the 3DS event they put up at Ogilvie Station, and it convinced me to get a 3DS day one.
 
Got my invite an hour ago. Went to register and all date selections are sold out, and if I click next I get an apache error crazy page.

WTF?
 
Shan't be going to this, although I wish I could. I went to the GameCube one in Chicago, such an awesome time. They had to literally rip me away from Luigi's Mansion, I couldn't stop playing it. Playing Super Monkey Ball there was just unbelievable. The six month wait after that was agonizing. The strange thing was the location of the party was in a dicey part of town and they didn't have any markings for it. We walked past it about 10 times before we found it. Completely unmarked building, it was ridiculous.
 
If they do (eventually) do one in Chicago-land and I don't get an invite?

I'm in for 3-5, Friday the 29th.

This is going to be interesting. I shall report on demos they had, any swag, and WiiU latency and experience!
 
If there is anyone in/around the city who is interested and haven't been given a code, they are allowing you to suggest folks/emails.

So if interested, let me know.
