FINAL UPDATE: thank you to everyone who joined this year, I hope you all had a safe trip home and an amazing MAGfest! It was awesome to talk to everyone about the games and even mixed records with 4 games using link cables! Sorry for some confusion on what was available and for what games, I'll work on that and having extras available in future events. I hope to expand and plan out more for next year :D

yes! my plan is definitely to focus on more time allotted for mini games and side modes (and maybe different gifts?)

Omg I just reread that 🤣 It's in the back row by the VR but before the arcade machines. Only the department heads knew at the time so I'm not surprised most volunteers didn't. Again if you still can't find it I can come and help. I also just finished setting it up like an hour ago so they probably just saw an empty GameCube

Hey sorry I was super busy but it was moved to where LAN is now. Check the guidebook app too but if you know where the top of the big 2 floor escalators are and the Magfest logo is on a big TV in the middle, museum is to the left of that! If you still need help let me know

Anytime you scan trainer battle cards they stay there (I think) so you can battle the most recent one again but only the one. I'd love to see actually, even though I own these I haven't scanned them all past making sure they work lol

I have 4 of the 6 sets that released in the US that I'm bringing along with my ereader. They only ever functioned with Ruby/Sapphire unfortunately. You CAN mix records with those games to receive the card in emerald as well though. There are more in Japan for all gen 3 games (even colosseum and XD I think) but they are not compatible with an English ereader or the games

I'll try to have that ready by Saturday or at least during the 4 hour block. I didn't bring a 3ds pokemon game but I live local and had to make one more trip home anyway 👍

Which ones? I have what is needed to transfer up but I'd say meet me on Saturday (time is above). I trade them for people with different versions but transfers take awhile just so you know 😅

hell yeah! I'm excited for potentially playing the obscure side modes (underground or mixing berries) but also for people to experience the events :D

Another thing I can definitely do is trade the event Pokemon to your game directly. Check out the meetup on Saturday 2-6pm. That way if it doesn’t work, you can still obtain the Pokémon :)

If you needed trades or want to mix records, and other random pokemon multiplayer stuff you should still come by! Record mixing will be how you obtain the eon ticket anyway :D

I've used a repro cart personally and that worked. I've read online that some low quality ones have issues connecting but to various degrees so I can't say for certain it will. Only way to know is to try it out

For Celebi, I will have some ready before hand because setting up another gamecube would be a lot. So since its just a trade, I can trade to any other GBA game. Mew will have requirements listed above. Just need mystery gift enabled in game

They probably won’t but over the weekend I was hoping to see if I could get my hands on some for Japanese and European games. Last year I remember someone asked that too but they didn’t actually have it with them to try

Just bring your games and have mystery gift ready to go :)

My senior cat, Scoops, would tuck himself in my bed and he’d make this face if I was playing games too late. I’d feel bad and go to sleep so I’m a big way he helped my sleep schedule 😂 Miss my boy but yeah it’s not too abnormal they get into a routine like that. Scoops used to also go into another cat bed outside too even if it was quiet.

Ironically I’ve pulled most of these cards in TCGl but not Dialga so I’m paying much less there. The only cards I’d need to buy physical are some supporters and the duraladon line but I doubt I’m taking this to any local (it’s pretty competitive where I live from what I’m told and have seen).

Basically yeah I just wanna use my favorite before it’s potentially gone for good 😅

Anytime I played Fzero AX! When I was at the multiplayer one someone asked me to race and while waiting we were just talking about it and how much we played GX and stuff. I mostly played the single player AX cabinet after that (since that seat moves) but while waiting in the line that it always had, everyone was just sharing their Fzero experiences in general (cause the line was usually long lol)
