NAVA Gamer's Gathering. August 26th: "Pokemon Day"
NAVA = North Atlantic Videogame Aficionados. This is a FREE event bringing gamers together for competition, trading, and chatter.
Previously at NAVA...
- We celebrated the birth date of Donkey Kong (July 1981) with an homage to DK games across the ages!
- The arcade challenge was the original Donkey Kong. Frank M's high score earned a $20 gift certificate.
- The 6pm event was our rendition of CollegeHumor's "Um, Actually" using Donkey Kong trivia as the source. Each member of the winning team also received a $20 gift certificate.
- Gamers, collectors and friends shared their recent adventures and sold or traded their goods.
In This Month's NAVA: It's POKEMON DAY at Digital Press! Let's capture, trade, battle and collect Pokemon ALL DAY LONG. During the day's event you will encounter wild NAVA attendees so bring your favorite game to trade Pokemon with others. While you're here, prepare for a barrage of Pokemon games set to play for free throughout the day including Pokemon Stadium, Pokken Tournament DX and a surprise or two on the "OG" front.
Arcade Challenge!: Puzzle de Pon was the arcade game that begat Pokemon Puzzle League and is also the only real connection to Pokemon we could find in the land of classic coin-ops. Be the best at this game on this one day by logging the highest score on our arcade cabinet by 9pm and win a nifty $20 gift certificate. Arcade challenge games are set to FREE PLAY all day, but please remember to let everyone get a shot. If you get the high score, move on, and no hogging the cabinet! Also if you have won last month’s arcade challenge you are not eligible to win this month’s challenge.
6PM EVENT! Let's fire up the N64 for some good ol' Pokemon Stadium 2 Battling! Who commands the toughest Pokemon? Let's find out. Sign-ups begin at 3pm, the tournament starts after 6pm and its first-come, first-served in this FREE-to-join tournament.
