- Gamers, collectors and friends shared their recent adventures and sold or traded their goods.

In This Month's NAVA: Because it's trendy, let's go to WAR! It's important during this stressful time in the USA to hone up on our military skills. What better place to hone skills than at the honing-est event in the tri-state area? We'll have Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines showcased on the store's many playable stations. Take out evil empires! Bomb the bejeesus out of those installations! Rescue allied prisoners of war! It's an all-out quest to conquer the enemy at this NAVA event!

Arcade Challenge: What better way to show them that our ground forces are the best in the world than in Capcom's COMMANDO? Save the hostages and take out the enemy on your rush to the top of the screen. Who's our best commando? Put up the best score on this game 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 game! Also if you have won last month’s arcade challenge you are not eligible to win this month’s challenge.

6PM Tournament: There is no more pure head-to-head test of skill than Atari's COMBAT. There are more COMBAT cartridges than there are members in the US military so let's put those soldiers to good use! Whose combat skills will win the day? Sign-ups begin at 3pm, the tournament starts at 6pm in this first-come, first-served and as always at NAVA, FREE-to-join tournament. Winners receive a $20 gift certificate!

Remember, you can bring a box or two of your trade goodies. We'll help you administer sales and get you set up somewhere in the store to sell your goods, there is no charge for this perk, NAVA is the time for trading! Also, if you have a Digital Press or NAVA t-shirt, wear them for a for an additional 5% discount on the store's already low-low prices!
