[skykid]

Welcome to the best spam thread ever:
This is going to be the biggest and greatest gaming event of the year!

It?s with great pleasure to officially announce Insert Coin 2009, a dedicated arcade gaming expo taking place over the weekend of July 18th-19th in Northampton, UK, with a massive focus on Cave!

This is your chance to help re-kindle true social gaming by meeting fellow hobbyists, butting heads in score competition, and sampling hundreds of exciting titles new and old from developers such as:

Cave
Psikyo
Raizing
SNK
Irem
Capcom

...to name but a few. It's going to be a Cave fan's wet dream, with some of the latest and greatest titles all on free play:

Death Smiles
Dodonpachi Daifukkatsu
Espgaluda 2
Ibara
Pink Sweets
Guwange
Dangun Feveron
Progear
Mushihimesama Futari
Dragon Blaze
Battle Garrega
Battle Bakraid
Armed Police Batrider
Street Fighter IV
Night Slashers
R-Type Leo

...and over a hundred more!

The show will be all access, featuring dedicated machines, classic cabs and new candy cabinets from Japan. You only pay for your ticket, and after that all games are totally free.
There are a number of competitions being held over the weekend catering to all tastes: fighting games, shoot'em-ups, racing games etc. and a raffle in which two lucky winners will be receiving either an Egret 2 arcade cabinet or a Namco Cyberlead 2.

In addition, Insert Coin will feature tech talks around arcade hardware and cabinets from the experts, and PCB?s and a number of other wares will be on sale at the various stands around the venue. Save your pennies, you might find a bargain!

We?re looking forward to having visitors from all over Europe, and it would be fantastic to see all the members of Cave-STG in attendance so we can put names to faces.

All you need to do to check out the full line-up of games and find out the details of exactly what?s going on, is pop over to the Insert Coin 2009 website, now open for registration and questions. Just click the banner below:

Just a little bump - tickets are selling fast for this event already. 1/3 sold in the first week and it's a limited ticket event. Get yo asses over to the site now to book. 

We've got plenty of people travelling from around Europe too, so no excuses.
