Suikoden Day 2014

Post by Night Shadow »

Hello everyone! On behalf of Nikisaur and Nanami-chan, we would like to invite you to join us for Suikoden Day 2014!

Get ready to board your ships, load your rune cannons, and be careful not to drift off at sea! We follow the tradition of what we've been doing over the last three years, as this year’s Suikoden Day 2014 will coincide with the release date of Suikoden 4: August 19! 2014 also means that it’s the 10th year anniversary of Suikoden 4, which makes it all the more special! We’re bringing back some old favorites, as well as throwing some new things into the mix. Join us as we celebrate Suikoden through discussions, debates, games, competitions, and much, much more! Time to gather once again, Stars!

Suikoden Day 2014 will actually begin on August 15 (open for group discussions, sharings, etc.), with the main culmination activity being on the 19th (contest entry presentations, etc). Please find us on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/groups/SuikodenDay2014/

For more info, feel free to email us at suikodenday@gmail.com

We'd love it if you guys could join us! Looking forward to seeing you al!
