So I just came back from ChipDamage's christmas party. I had an awesome time, so thanks and shout outs to the peeps at ChipDamage! I was able to confirm them hosting a tournament or two at our April 5th 2014 charity event (which is all kinds of coolness). I also fit in some games of Street Fighter 4 and even puzzle fighter!
I had a long talk with one of the original members (an O.G. so to speak) and I really liked what he had to say since I think myself, the planning committee and most of our followers can agree.... we don't do this to get rich or for the money, we have a passion for nostalgia and video games. That's is why I do it and I'm sure a lot of my counterparts are doing it too. Although money is super important and dictates what we can and can not do, the source of our efforts is a passion for this thing we call retro video games! Just so everyone out there knows where we're coming from!
I think Chip Damage is an outstanding group, they're keeping the competitive fighting game scene alive for Winnipeg and I'm happy they're helping us out! =D
