Going as the 5th Doctor!

AFAIK, no laptops allowed in Gaming Hall.

UPDATE 4/23: The StarCraft II and League of Legends tournaments are **CANCELLED** as we do not have a dedicated Internet connection for Exhibit Hall 3.
Added Touhou 12/3 Hisoutenkou tourney - Friday 5PM

does anyone know if/when an official eGaming thread will go up?
and does anyone know when the super smash bros melee tournament might be?
oh and the rules for registering for said tournament.

I do not have the answer for that, but if you shoot an e-mail to games @ fanime *DOT* com, you can get an answer there.

Is it possible to get a Touhou 12.3 Tourny on the list or will there not be one this year?

I will consider it, I cannot guarantee there will be one this year.

Update 3/16: Added tournament list and times

Any update if this panel is accepted? I would be more than down to check it out!

[FAQ]

Hello folks,

I am proud to announce PC Gaming is back for Fanime 2013! I would also like to say that Digital Storm will be coming back, and bringing their new Vanquish system for attendees to play on.

FAQ

Can I bring my own laptop/PC and play?
As of now, we are not going to be having any BYOC (Bring Your Own Computer) setups. I still need to get clarification if attendees are allowed to bring their own laptops inside the Gaming Hall.

I want to show off Stepmania/MUGEN/etc!
The same rules that apply for E-Gaming also applies for PC Gaming as well. We will not permit anyone to play any emulators, music game simulators, and similar programs as there are a ton of legal and liability issues. If you want to use those programs, do so elsewhere.

Will there be an internet connection?
We were unable to obtain a dedicated Internet connection for Exhibit Hall 3. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Will there be tournaments?
See below.

I have a question about the Digital Storm systems!
Representatives from Digital Storm will be at Fanime to answer any questions you have. They will have Digital Storm T-shirts on to differentiate them from our staff.

Was wondering if you had an Espeon and Glaceon plushie up for sale?

As a longtime patron of Fanimaid Cafe (been there since day one in 2007!) I look forward to yet another wonderful time!

Keep up the good work girls!  :)

If I can get it done in time, I might go as gender-swap Trixie

Tanto Cuore!

Just as long you don't play Rebecca Black's Friday, you're good.  ;)

Unfortunately the audio levels are too low, so the video didn't turn out that great. Note to self: Flip cams are horrible for panels.

PC Gaming: Were there more games available other than StarCraft? That's all I saw people playing when I passed by PC Gaming.

E-Gaming: The IIDX setup was nice, but when I played on Friday the 1P turntable wasn't working properly so I had to use Auto-Scratch. Also, the banner was a little confusing, as it said IIDX 17 Sirius, but the game interface was that of Empress. Also, the songlist was confusing as well, but as I understood it, it was custom.

I went both days and had nothing but a wonderful time. I had lots of fun talking to the maids, and although you all were busy, you guys took time to ensure each customer is happy. My fiance and I also thank all of you for the love and support you've given us. Ever since you and Jun took charge of the Maid Cafe in 2009, I have had nothing but a wonderful experience both last and this year!

I feel bad as the only video that wasn't shot in HD was G's skit...I'm going to be doing some editing in the next few days.
