Thu18Apr20136:00 pm53 Rupert Street, Soho, London, W1D 7PH
Firstly, it turns out London has a new geek-friendly drinks venue. It opened about 3 weeks ago in Soho and it's called Loading Bar. (See what they did there?) We went there. We liked it. (And we're not even obliged to say so either.)
Secondly, DS London Midweek Meets are about to come back in to fashion. I know after a hard day's work the only thing that will make me feel better is killing something or Tetris. (Sometimes both).
I know what you're thinking next... What if we combined the two? Well it just so happens those very same Soho gamer-geeks have kindly given us free reign of their basement allowing us to bring you...
Loading Bar Soho Midweek Meet on Thursday 18th of April @ 6:30pm.
(Round of applause)
Also, if while you're there you happen to meet Jimmi, Loading Bar's very own 3DS Mii, you will get 10% off!

Activities:
Tri Force themed pumpkin competition--- Bring your own creatively carved pumpkins to celebrate this fun new release!
Kids Corner under 15 art competition--- May the best artist win!!
Dungeon Speed Run tournament--- Teams of three, go go go!!
The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes Cosplay Competition--- Judged by special guests Aisha Anime on behalf of League, it's not just the Links who will be swapping outfits!And lots and lots of people playing Tri Force Heroes, obviously!!
In the spirit of the Tri Force theme, MonHun Offline and StreetPass Kent have invited Anime League to judge and join in as special guests to the event. Aisha Anime , one of their admin, is not just a talented cosplayer but a hardcore gamer too! Keep an eye out for at the event to witness some serious Link-on-monster action!

We are proud to announce the upcoming StreetPass London event! In addition to the usual multiplayer shenanigans we will be playing the brand new Square-Enix epic Final Fantasy : Explorers! Those of you with your own copy (the game is released on January 29th, so 2 days before the event) are encouraged to bring it along, as there will be plenty of opportunity to play cooperatively with others using your own character! For those of you without ; fear not... We will be showing the game off using demo copies and demo 3DSes. This means all attendees will get a chance to play Final Fantasy : Explorers with one another!
Another game we'll be playing together is Lightwood Games' Wii-U title Word Party! This 5-player party game offers brand new word games mixed with unique multiplayer versions of classics. There will be a tournament in this title open to all, with the top prize being a copy of the game itself!
Aside from these we will, as usual, be playing all your multiplayer favourites. Expect games of Mario Kart 7, Zelda : Triforce Heroes, Pokémon XYαΩ plus many more! Our attendees tend to have impressive gaming collections, so regardless of what you want to play (even if it's something a little more obscure) you're bound to find someone to game with! There will also be various Wii-U games available to play, such as Smash 4 and Mario Kart 8
In terms of venue : we've looked far and wide to find you a space that was :
- central
- easy to get to (great transport links)
- spacious
- state-of-the-art (so we could show off those Wii-U games on a glorious projector)...and have managed to tick every box with the Stockwell Community Centre! The centre, which is less than a mere 3 miles from Centre Point, is served by a plethora of tube and bus routes (the Northern and Victoria lines both run into Stockwell Tube Station). It's a lovely, clean space, and you're all sure to love it.
This event is supported by Nintendo, Square-Enix and Lightwood Games. We will also be assisted on the day by our friends from StreetPass Southend, NSG and, ofcourse, our wonderful StreetPass London Buddies!

RSVP at https://www.facebook.com/events/625782214227025/
Hi everyone, Loading Bar Stratford’s "Video Games Expert": Mat Jones here, ready to invite you to another one of our famous get-togethers. I’ve been given the chance to celebrate one of my favourite things: Residential Evil. I personally know a lot about this after definitely hearing about it before today.
President Evil is best known as the iconic film franchise starring Kate Beckinsale in her battle against some nasty umbrellas. Perhaps you might not have known that the series originally began as a handful of video games on the PlayStation Two!
Please join us on March 22, the 20th anniversary of the release of the first game, Resident Weevil Zero, to celebrate the life (or more accurately, being undead on account of all of the game’s iconic werewolves!) of this landmark "horror survival" franchise.
We’ll have a series of special cocktails available like our signature “B-Virus” or our “Health Plants”. We’ll also have a chronological list of the main games in the series, like Project X Zone and Pocket Fighter.
I’ve reached out to Namco Bandai to see if they want to get involved but I haven't heard a response yet.
If you’re a fan of the series I hope you join us and if you’ve somehow never heard of The Resident Evil (or as it’s known in Japan: Bad Zone) then I hope this event serves as a revelaiton.

Wed06Apr20166:30pm to 10pmRoyal Festival Hall, Southbank Centre, London, SE1 8XX
RSVP at https://www.facebook.com/events/254496551548856/
We are pleased to announce we've been accepted to run a StreetPass London event as part of the London Games Festival! So as to not coincide with the 'Now Play This' event on April's first weekend, or the mighty Rezzed, which is taking place on the second (both of which are also part of the festivities) we decided to host our first ever weekday get-together!
StreetPass London is a chance for those who own the Nintendo 3DS games console to get together and play its multiplayer titles with other 3DS fans. This is done by utilising the console’s local wireless capabilities. Our next meetup looks set to take place at the Royal Festival Hall (also known as the Southbank Centre). We look forward to basking in its relaxing surroundings and enjoying some chilled-out gaming.
What games can you expect the other attendees to be playing? I can confirm our attendees tend to have large collections, which they often bring along with them. This means that ; even if you’re gagging for someone to play a more obscure 3DS title with (such as Tekken 3D Prime) there’s a good chance you will find someone with it who wouldn’t mind giving you a match or two. The most popular games at our events include Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, Legend of Zelda : Tri Force Heroes and Pokémon.
The initial get-together spot will be at the Festival Terrace entrance, where the group will be between 7:30pm and 8. We will then move on to a quieter spot in the venue, which we will post here (we, hence, seriously recommend bringing along an internet-enabled device). If worst comes to worse and you miss this initial get-together don’t fret however, as staff members will be popping down to the entrance at regular intervals throughout the event. You can spot us easily as we wear darkish green tops with our StreetPass logo on the front and back, and the Nintendo logo on the sleeves.
For the full list of activities taking place at Games London, plus further information on the Festival, here's the website : http://www.games.london/
This is a free event.
3DS fans under the age of 16 will need to be accompanied by a responsible adult.
See you there!

.mpegasus is rather partial to beeps. His sound is drawn from the 8-bit era of home computers like the Spectrum and c64, mixed with heavy bass and crunchy drums to leave each track existing in a temporal limbo between the past and the future. It sounds weird, is what I’m getting at. Melody reigns supreme here, but more than ever you might find the ground a bit wobbly underfoot.

Hey guys. We miss you all dearly so have decided to resurrect this old group for one more meetup. Helen is back this time to co-host
Come along and have a good old chinwag about the upcoming Sonic games. Or just reminisce about the old ones
The Plan A venue (if it doesn't rain) is St Dunstan in the East. It's a beautiful parky spot in Central London. You can check it out in this video of a meetup Helen hosted for StreetPass London : https://youtu.be/vl7BzDhNccQ
Plan B in case of rain is the nearby Café Nero, which is just a short road away. The address for that is Plantation Place, 30 Fenchurch Street, London EC3M 3BD or a Wetherspoons.
We're hoping for sunshine, but regardless we're expecting to have a very chilled and relaxed get-together
Feel free to bring along your 3DSes, Vitas, Switches and sketchbooks! If you bring along portable consoles do be sure to keep an eye on them at all times, however, as theft does happen in London.
Younger members can attend provided they are accompanied by an adult who will have sole responsibility for them.
