« Pac Attack @ Wondercon 08! | Main | Dev Kit League Set To Begin »
Wondercon 08 came and went, Elders Taragan, Kozo, and Goban as well as Kristjan, Cheatum and Corey Lewis had a blast in San Francisco. After hours and hours of hard work da boof jr. was constructed and PG was happy to bring joy to lots of California gamers with gaming goodness and of course the PG Dev Kit. Hit the jump for a full recap!
Wondercon 08 started out with lots to do and see for the Pink Godzilla crew in attendance; find the Moscone Convention Center South to start construction on Da Boof Jr, check out the other vendors at the con and of course keep an eye out for an occasional cosplay vixen. There was lots to check out in San Francisco with GDC just right next door in the Moscone Center, and a few random sightings of gaming elite like NOA's Reggie Fils-Aime walking down the street and a mysterious sighting of Pacman late one night. California gamers were surprised to find out that the NDS and PSP were region free and got to see some great games in action as the PG crew demoed Moero! Nekketsu Rhythm Tamashii Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan, Slide Adventure: Mag Kid, Arkanoid DS, Diagasso! Band Brothers, and the occasional showing of Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, in da boof jr. as well as having a large selection of classic and import games.
There were lots of vendors at Wondercon selling comics, t-shirts, action figures, toys, and almost anything in between. After browsing the show and stumbling across the clubNamco booth right behind da boof jr selling an assortment of awesome Namco t-shirts and toys like the movable plush collection featuring Pacman, Blinky, Pinky,Inky, and of course Clyde a few purchases were made.
The clubNamco booth at Wondercon had some of the coolest t-shirts around!
Wondercon was also host to the latest build of Castle Crashers over at The Behemoth booth and it was always filled with anxious gamers waiting for a chance to play the game.
Lots of gamers checked out Castle Crashers and were excited to hear it will be out this summer.
There were lots of cosplayers at Wondercon of course and the PG crew was always on the lookout but sometimes an attack was not dodged in time. Corey Lewis fell victim more than once and took the wrath that followed.
This batgirl got the best of Corey with a surprise uppercut!
There were a few booth babes hanging around Wondercon and even under the watchful eye of Elder Taragan, Pinky G was able to sneak away for a quick rendezvous with the best the con had to offer. Using his patented box hiding technique , Pinky G got away and Elder Taragan didn't notice the stealthy plushy leaving da boof jr.
Pinky G didn't seem to mind getting arrested....
With Wondercon over the PG crew packed up the rest of the quickly multiplying plushies and headed back to Seattle. With da boof jr. gone all that remained was the bright green zip ties that were the blood of da boof jr.
With da boof jr gone the Moscone Center South was a lot darker.
The plushies all packed under glass and ready to go...
Kristjan needed a few more moments with da boof jr as he formed a special bond during the con.
Don't forget to check out more pics from Pink Godzilla's trip down to Wondercon on Flickr! With Wondercon done the PG crew in attendance took a much needed rest and headed back to Seattle.

Hey, it was fun talking to a few of y'all and visiting your booth. =D I bought the Kanji dictionary on Sunday, and was told I would get a pdf receipt. I don't think you've send it yet, so if you could that'd be awesome.
Definitely reccing this store for all my friends' Japanese game needs. And will be playing the Dev Kit again this weekend. ^_^
