If you’re living in or near the Chittenden County / Burlington area of Vermont, and you enjoy fighting games (or video game history), then this Wednesday night is YOUR LAST CHANCE to experience one of the largest repositories of fighting game history on the planet.

Tonight begins the end (for now).

From 5pm-Midnight, $10 gets you in for all night play on the largest collection of fighting games in the American northeast.

The dojo closes its doors for good on 6/30, so tonight & next Wed. (6/18) are your final days to slap buttons with us (for now).

All things are bound to change; we, as fighting game players, know that you have to adapt to change to meet the challenges in front of you.

Our mission remains, although the shape it takes may change as a result.

Stick with us. We ain’t done yet. It’s only over when you give up, and we don’t quit.

Testing a new lesson in our upcoming curriculum package for use by schools and after school programs. What’s the lesson? Guess you’ll have to roll on in when it releases!

As a self-imposed rule, our CEO and chief TO (and head sensei @ @wnfcdojo.bsky.social) doesn’t often enter WNFC tournaments because he chooses to focus on facilitating the best events possible for the Vermont FGC.

There are exceptions to this rule. One such exception will be made in May 2025.

I get to teach kids life lessons and skills through learning how to play fighting games. That’s what I get to do for a job. I love my life.

"I was dubious, but after talking with Grant, I did a complete 360-degree turn in my mind," she said. "Luke isn't really into playing sports, and I loved that Grant wanted to set up something for kids who like gaming but haven't had a chance to meet other kids like them."

In March 2023, our org’s CEO opened an afterschool program, one that pairs soft skills and technical skills to create a holistic experience for kids where they learn through gaming, not just learning how to game. A mentorship center that uses learning fighting games as a roadmap for personal growth.
