Pokkén Tournament DX & More! (A NNW and BUMPS Collaboration) 04/03/18
We got there early, but then we had to do a quick dash to Asda at 11am (Sunday hours), so even though we’d set up in plenty of time, we didn’t kick off the first things until nearly 12pm! First, we drew the names for the Pokémon TCG. We hadRead More →
The Mario Party of all Parties! 10/02/18
The transport was the fun bit this time – trying to transport a crate full of cakes that had been prepared by a few of us the day before! The cake pops were the most delicate… The last time Jen made cake pops was about 3 years ago – forRead More →
Nintendo North Worms 14/01/18
The first meet of the year is always more casual, although previously it had been Dance/Music themed, and last year saw us go down to London to see the première of the Switch by invitation! We gave everyone the full day for this mini meet – there’s just so manyRead More →
Have a “Cappy” Christmas! 09/12/17
We got to the venue for 10am, but because we had fewer games and no league, we were set up by 10 past, so the few of us who were early enjoyed a quick catch up, and the new DLC from Zelda: Breath of the Wild was put on theRead More →
NNW and BUMPS Collaboration 18/11/17
A few of us got set up- the room this time was a blank canvas, so we set up all the chairs and the tables how we needed them. People started arriving properly from 11am, getting signed up for whatever they fancied. The raffle caught a lot of people’s eyesRead More →
Super Metroid Madness 07/10/17
We were in the same building, but downstairs this time. The room was much smaller with only one screen, but it was still bigger than our original venue. The only drawback being we had to provide our own projector. (Special thanks to Emma and her friend Chris for sorting thisRead More →
Mario & Rabbids: Blowout! 02/09/17
With it being the same weekend as Scifi Wales, we decided that we’d just have a sort of mini meet to mark the release of Mario and Rabbids: Kingdom Battle. It was nice to be able to use our favourite venue though, so we made the most of it byRead More →
Splatoon Summer Splashdown 06/08/17
This event was going to be the biggest technical challenge yet – Our Splatoon events in the past had involved two Wii Us set up on two different TVs, but with the Switch being so portable, we were able to finally have our dream 4 v 4 matches, with aRead More →
Invitational to Nintendo HQ Community Event! 12/07/17
We were fortunate enough to be invited to attend a community event for the upcoming release of Splatoon at Nintendo’s HQ in Windsor. After a very early start for our train, we arrived at the red doors mid morning, excited for the day of gaming ahead of us. Once weRead More →
NNW: Fists of Fury! (ARMS Regional Qualifier) 01/07/17
After trialling a couple of new venues this year, we’ve decided that Wheldon is best suited, at least for now 🙂 We got set up early as usual, and people trickled in gradually. Freeplay was set up, which saw a bit of Othello, and later ARMS and 1,2 Switch! RoundRead More →
