Hey there Phantasy Star fans,
The PSZ Community Day Event is almost here! As promised, we’ve now got full details including time, what to bring, and what you can expect from our first event where fans like yourselves get to visit SEGA!

How to confirm your reservation
If your name is on this list, all you need to do is post here on the Blog or send me (RubyEclipse) a Private Message on the forums to confirm your reservation. Once your reservation above has “Confirmed!” next to it, your name is on the final guest list and you’re all prepared for the visit!
How to get here:
Need directions on how to get to us here at SEGA? Not sure which map result is really the right one? Look no further – our address is:
350 Rhode Island Street
Suite 400
San Francisco, CA 94103
USA
MapQuest Link
Final Details
As mentioned on the PSU Forums, we will also be holding a special 30 minute Q & A Session with the Phantasy Star Universe Game Masters from 8:00-8:30 PM, just after the PSZ event finishes.
And that’s that! Cameras are welcome, and while we obviously can’t show off too much of the office (secrets, secrets!), you guys will get to take pictures in the event room we have set up, of our lobby, and with all of the SEGA staff that will be there.
If you’re on the list, please get your confirmations in as soon as possible here on the blog or on the forum! There are also a few spots left open, so if you’ve got a friend with a DS/i who also wants to come along, you can hurry and reserve them a space. Anyone who is reserved (name in bold) needs to respond by this coming Monday, Nov 2nd, or that spot will be going out to the next person in line on the waiting list.
Until next week – we’ll see you guys at 5 PM on November 4th!

I’ve confirmed you four! (Edit: Five – that was fast!)
Daniella – I’m going to mark you as confirmed for now, I’ll see if we can’t find a DS or DSi for you to use during the event. (I can’t offer this to everyone, but since I know you really wanted to come, I’ll see what I can do!)

I’ll be there, assuming that I can get there with the bay bridge messed up, heh. Well, that’s what public transit is for I suppose.
Anyone more local to SF know which BART station/Muni line to use if the bridge isn’t open by then, since Golden Gate is massively out of my way? (Or what other bridges there are besides Bay and Golden Gate? I’m planning to go see my grandmother earlier in the day before I move to Kentucky in a couple of weeks, so I do prefer to have my car instead of BARTing in from Dublin/Pleasonton, which is always a nightmare to park for anyway.

Nai_Calus — our closest BART stop is 16th & Mission. You can hop on the #22 Fillmore Muni bus from there and it goes right by our office.
The #10 Townsend and #19 Polk busses also stop by our offices.

Updated the list, and added a new name to the waiting list.
If your name is in BOLD, please make sure you confirm by Monday morning, or that space will be opened to anyone on the waiting list!
I also need to confirm full names of everyone who is coming, so I’ll be sending out e-mails to do so today.
Thanks everyone!

I haven’t gotten an email from you yet, Ruby, and it’s not in my spam box either. Dunno if gmail just ate it or you didn’t get a chance, but figured I’d mention it here just in case it’s the former.

Hi everyone,
I’ve updated the list as of this morning to confirm everyone who sent me an e-mail or posted over the weekend. All who did should now be confirmed above!
There are still a few names that have not confirmed yet, and they have until 3 PM Pacific today to do so. Allan, Lando, Fiend, and Douglas – please confirm if you can, or those spots may open. Thanks guys!

Eric Miller

I hope there isn’t a gate to get in, I have the address so just would like to know where to park. Thanks.

Comment # 55
Yes, I also did not receive an e-mail. Hope we don’t run into any problems and that me knowing my own e-mail address is satisfactory enough ? x’D

Comment # 56
Thanks DeVeAn! I’ll update the list. I have almost everyone updated now (the real name list is private, not public here), but if you did post here under a false name, please drop me a PM on the SEGA forums (http://forums.sega.com) just to let me know.
Tenshio – I’m sorry, but it does look like the spots are all full at the moment. I have actually been told the number may be pushing 30+ already, which means things might be really packed. Don’t lose hope for the future, though – if this event goes well, we will definitely see about future chances to play some of our games early, most likely also here inside SEGA HQ.
For parking, I’d suggest going in the direction of De Haro and seeing if you can find parking closer to the park that is just east of us. SEGA’s office parking isn’t available to guests, and it closes at seven, so something on a nearby street will be your best bet. Definitely arrive a bit early if you come via car, just in case parking is hard to find.
Thanks again everyone! We’re all very excited to see this event kick off tomorrow, and we have all sorts of cool things in store. Follow the Rappies to the fourth floor, and we’ll see you there!
