G Up

I thought a dedicated thread to G-Up would be interesting and informative with the knowledgeable Italian players now I've acquired a fair few of the videos from them, but I'm still learning

I've transferred the two VHS tapes I have 'Shirube' and the one below to DVD with an mpeg back-ups

G-Up Collection Vol.1 '2nd National Convention' VHS 1:55:43 - 3.83Gig - 2 days to upload....!

I'm currently making a time-line for this beast but any more help with information about this video would be really appreciated for the description.

To help with that search here's some information I scanned in:

Match-Up Chart insert

Well, turns out: 'G-Up Shusai Dainikaizenkokutaikai (VHS)' is the same thing as 'G-Up 2nd 3rd Strike National Convention (VHS)'!

Now, whether it's also the 2nd G-Up release i.e. G-Up Collection Vol.2 has still to be ascertained!

2nd National Convention info from the G-Up site.

I could still do with a firm date for this release though, there's nothing obvious on the sleeve

C&P from 3.0

Update!

So another G-Up VHS has come to my possession:



On closer inspection this is the same VHS for the '2nd National Convention' with an alternate sleeve design, although still very similar to the other one.

Inside the cassette box are two pieces of paper, one with brackets and results for the tournament which is identical to the other Match Up Chart and the other a note from Mester.
The first VHS did not have this note and. I'm very curious to know what it says!
Ultimately I want to know whether there any differences in content that would make it worthwhile spending the money to have this VHS digitally converted like the first one.

Here is the note:



All in all very curious!
