A Very Smashing Holiday Party – Switch & Play NYC December @ Waypoint Cafe NYC
Dec 22 @ 12:00 pm – 11:00 pm

The most wonderful time of the year is coming, and what better way to celebrate the holidays than a Holiday Party! Once again, we will be hosting our annual Holiday Party at Waypoint, where we’ll be having free play on the TVs, as people are playing Super Smash Bros. Ultimate for the Nintendo Switch!

We’ll be doing a special Christmas grab bag game during the party! Instead of the traditional Yankee Swap/White Elephant Gift Exchange, we wanted to do something different.

Here are the rules:

Item must be in the $20-$30 range. It must be a physical item or a piece of merchandise (like toys, board games, plushies, etc.). We will not be accepting video games or prepaid cards/gift cards. The item must be a physical item or piece of merchandise. Make sure the gift is wrapped up and left unlabeled.

On the day of the event all of the items will get thrown into a giant laundry sack or giant bag. Admins Mike and Geoffrey will randomly generate the order of the participants, and line them up. They will randomly grab an item out of the bag without looking. Once you receive the gift, it’s yours. At the end of the game, you can choose to trade with people if you would like.

We will have another raffle this year, where we’ll be giving away a ton of prizes!

To get to Waypoint Cafe, take the D Train to Grand St. From there, it’s a five minute walk to Ludlow St. After you reach Ludlow, make a left turn, and it’s a very short walk. You could also take the F Train to Delancey St. From there, it’s a three minute walk to Ludlow.

We look forward to seeing you guys at the party!
