Events Listings
Anime @ ArmadaCon will be running over 2 days this year, and while we haven't finalised the exact events yet, here's a brief rundown of what we've got so far:
8-Bit Games Panel
Do you remember the era of chiptunes, 64 colours and awesome side-scrolling games? We do, and we're bringing you a presentation of all the best games from the 8-Bit era. From Mario to Zelda, Mega Man to Solar Jetman, and the sublime River City Ransom, we'll be taking you on the best nostalgia trip since Spandau Ballet's comeback tour. Wait, scratch that last bit...
Anime Screenings
Well, it's what we're here for, right? We're selecting the best of the best Sci-Fi Anime and screening them in hour blocks. A chance to sit back and relax in between events.
Artists' Corner
A chance to put your artistic skills to the test for fun and for competition. Either draw whatever you like and put it up on our artists wall, or take part in one of our numerous competitions to try and win a prize. This will be running in the background across both days.
Gaming Tournaments
Think you're the best at fighting games? Then join in one of our gaming tournaments to prove it! We'll be hosting two knockout tournaments for now, with Super Smash Brothers: Brawl and Street Fighter IV being our weapons of choice.
General Gaming
In addition to the tournaments, we'll also have some general gaming sessions running in the background. From nostalgic NES classics to the Bullet Curtain mania of the Tohou series, we'll be bringing in a range of classic games both new and old for your enjoyment.
Itasha Racing
For those not familiar with the concept of Itasha, it's a bit like Pimp My Ride, but with Anime characters. While we don't have a full Itasha car to drive around (which is probably a good thing), we have RC cars to race around our test track instead. Stig helmet not required.
