Look at what I just found. Never Surrender - Play to Win

I totally forgot that I had this...  I met Billy back in like 2005 or something at a computer gaming tournament in the DFW area.  He was there with his DK machine trying to get LAN gamers to play against him.  I do believe that at the time he was wearing his American Flag tie.

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

Cool to have for sure, was he a tool in real life?

He's actually a pretty good guy, according to the people I know that have met him and from what I know of him in general. Don't believe most of what The King of Kong tells you.

I thought he was the gamer of the century? How come he didn't challenge the LAN gamers at what they were playing?

Yeah, the signature looks like "Buffy Mitchell".
Old, but not obsolete.

It was a cd sleve.  I don't recall what the CD had on it, but it wasn't arcade related or anything.  I think I got this at CPL and he was there in the Hitachi booth.
