fCON 10-th Anniversary Convention in Poland

Post by MWK »

Hey, just wanted to let you all know that there is this little NES/Famicom/Pegasus Party in Poland (since the community in Poland is little) each year during summer break (middle of July) simply called FamiCON and this year (2018) we will going to have an Anniversary.
Yes!
It is 10th time in a row since we started this project!

Image << it's just a Teaser Poster 8-)

We are not a big scene (if you can even call it a scene). We are just a bunch of crazy people super-loved in this console basically since the beginning - at least the beginning in terms of Poland and Fall of the Great Iron Curtain in 1989 - when a semi-shady company Bobmark International Join Venture started to import a kick ass Famiclone called Pegasus (similar to its variant - Kega's Ken-Kid in Russia). We are also not good at all at coding, we only have just a few but yet very talented technicians/engineers (such as krzysiobal) and musicians (such as Milos & Chip Jockey). BUT we have a BIG hearts for our beloved console and WE ARE awesome in what we do - which is keeping it alive 8-) We are ContraBanda.eu team and you can see some of our work at our youtube channel >> https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMFiej ... b_xbFYTaog

[[ if you are not afraid of Polish language here is a brief look aka a quick preview what are we up to during our convention parties >> https://youtu.be/bniKAbwhOhU ]]

HOWEVER, despite all that potential we are not able to celebrate this anniversary as fully and properly as a scene should without your help guys.
So.
We would like to ask YOU if ANY of you wish to participate in a task to prepare and code a demo for our 10th Anniversary Party this year? Even a simple one.
We can of course provide a music score for the demo in a suitable form - absolutely no problem, but that is all we have...
There are absolutely no bottom or top limits. Pick up a mapper of your choice and unleash yourself. NTSC, PAL, whatever you feel comfortable in.
All we urge for is that the demo should run on a real hardware so that we could present it at the party.
ETA Deadline is yet to be settled, but let say by the end of June/first week of July.

What do you all think about it?
Is it possible?
Can we count on your coding mad skillz?
Who knows - maybe it's a perfect opportunity to make something like High Hopes part 2? THAT would be AWESOME! :twisted:

Thanks in advance for everyone!


edit:: btw. have you seen our first intro demo for the first party? no? then here you go, just hang on tight, intense stuff inside, lol >> http://mwk1.vot.pl/contrabanda/stuff/fCON1_intro.nes
