Title: 1st Killer Queen in TEXAS
Post by: cpjoe on August 28, 2016, 04:43:41 pm
For the past year I've been begging the owner of Pinballz to bring a Killer Queen arcade to Texas. That day is now here! John, I've followed in your footsteps down to Logan Arcade and met with the scene in Chicago and have you to thank for the inspiration of so, so many of my personal arcade adventures. I've met in person with Nik Mikros, one of the game's creators, and have an ongoing dialogue with the Chicago scene to make sure we are off to a good start and to apply the lessons learned from other scenes.

I've had the rare pleasure of seeing the game unboxed (pictures in the link below) when it arrived 2 days ago and have started a Facebook page to document building this community from the ground up. The success and performance of this game will rise and fall based on the support of the local community. If you'd like to follow our adventures and see this community grow right at the start, follow us on Facebook! Also if you're in Texas, you are IN, and want to get involved with the scene, hit me up on Facebook.
