i loved every single one of the silent scope games, the fact that most of them were made using the Metal Gear Solid engine was a bonus.

thanks to VR i can relive all my memories on the arcades too.

Last time I went to the arcade I go to was such a fucking disappointment. Pretty much every gun game was broken in some way, at beast the force feedback wasn't working and the calibration was off
The 3S and ST cabs were gone, Macross was gone. I couldn't find Tempest either
They opened a second location this year iirc and it seems they moved all the good shit to there, they even have Tekken 7 cabs in the second location
So fucking gutted, I rarely get to go there and now I don't even want too any more if I can't play any of the games I really liked

I've played it in a couple places. It was actually in a mall in a small town in used to live in. Though it wasn't there last time I looked.

Fuck yeah, man.

LOOTBOXES ARE BAD
BUT REMEMBER ARCADES OMG KINO

Attached: 1565417942722.webm (640x360, 557K)

it used to be marketed as an arcade for adults because it had a restaurant and a bar inside. Its game selection used to actually be pretty good but it was always pricey. Over the last few years they started replacing shit with mobile games put into a fucking cabinet like said, and tried making it more appealing to the kids (yet you still need to be accompanied by an adult if you're under 18)

>crawl up that shit when nobody is watching and insert every ball in 100

Arcades only cost you a few quarters per game and you pay based on how skilled or unskilled you are. But nice false equivalency anyway, retard.

Ex D&B employee, it's a shithole
All of the games are rigged, fighting games are not allowed (Except the Injustice card game) the food is shit and the employees will intentionally ignore you if you're not a woman or a child
My boss made me take the rubber claw grips off of Bling King because too many people were winning, it's literally impossible to get a prize now

Chuck E. Cheese for adults
It's mostly shitty redemption games, scaled up mobile games, generic racing games and other normie stuff.
There's still usually a few good games though, my local one has the new Time Crisis and DDR, and the food is alright. It's worth checking out at least once but nothing to drive across town for unless you're desperate for arcade games.

I think the only times I saw anything remotely resembling them was a single Pachinko machine in San Francisco with the extra ball drops disabled, and a marble shooter, that apparently has neither the progressive jackpot nor the eAmusement Card reader that the JP version has.

If you could own any arcade cabinet, what would you want it to be?

Why not just play at home.

My dad always used to win us an absolute fuckton of tickets with this machine. I don't see it around anymore so I can't even figure out how to do it myself.

thats like looking at porn vs paying a hooker

Holy shit user, I've been looking for this specific machine for ages!
Thanks user, my life long journey is finally over.

For the same reason people didn't play video games at home.

Either Ollie King or Arctic Thunder.

I've always wanted to try one of these cabinets out. Anyone know the location of one of these?

The roller rink I went to sometimes as a kid had this but it was on a normal cabinet so half of the screen was missing. It was odd.

Sorry to break it to you, but it sucks, and that's coming from a big F-Zero fan.

There's like a full second of delay in the seat's hydraulics and the wheel's force feedback, making it almost unplayable, there's also only 4 tracks, few characters/vehicles and no grand prix mode.

If you want to play it, it's in the F-Zero GX disc, you can unlocking with cheat codes.

The thing was each arcade actually controls what parts are inverted. Sometimes it would be only y is inverted, somtimes x is inverted too.

And yeah, I wish the light saber segments at least allowed you one miss, I never beat boba fett, though I did manage to beat vader once.

I'm gonna cheat and say a Neo Geo with Metal Slug 3, Magical Drop III, KOF 02 (would do XI for nostalgia but if I recall that was when they finally dropped the original hardware) and some other fourth thing.

If you aren't gonna allow me that then Street Fighter Alpha 3.

Back when i was a kid, there was an Arcade i loved.
It about cops where you had to drive and shoot. Player 1 had the driving wheel while player 2 was on the passenger seat. I cant remember the name tho.

I miss gameworks. There used to be one in vegas under the m&m and coke museum, but I think it's a clothing store now.

There was also one in DFW where I went for my birthday a few times. I remember one of the times, someone crashed into the mall's transformer literally like 5 minutes before we arrived. After that one of my friends said he needed to go home early. Fuckin traitor.

But yeah, gameworks was cool. They had a special where you got like 2 hours of games for a pretty low price at around noon.

Can’t forget about these guys. R-right?

Man I wanna like taiko but every time I try playing it (have the switch version) I just can't get my head around constantly switching from drum hits to rimshots. I guess I could just use one of those characters that makes it easy and doesn't care about that but it would just be gimping myself.

It's me, Goldman

Oh my god, I think I remember this game. I seem to remember it was single player though, you had to drive and shoot at the same time.

I remember seeing it only once at this arcade that used to be near my house where everything was a nickel. They called it nickel ranch.

>To this day, finding a CarnEvil arcade machine or buying your own is still the only way to play it without venturing into the hazy legality of emulation territory. It seems odd, because series like House of the Dead, Time Crisis, and Point Blank all managed to carve a niche for themselves on home consoles, complete with their own plastic gun peripherals. "There was a home game in development," says Pikulski, "but instead of a straight port, the company doing it wanted to create an original game using the IP. It was very strange."
>In what would've been a perfect fit, CarnEvil was even being concepted for one of those 4D rides you'll sometimes see at amusement centers, with patrons strapping into a hydraulic seat that moves with the roller-coaster motions on-screen, similar to Disneyland's Star Tours. "The original Midway Arcade Team focused on developing a Consumer treatment soon after concluding development on CarnEvil - especially after hearing that our sales had exceeded Mortal Kombat 4 Arcade," says Haeger. "The broad concept was that you'd enter Greely Valley Cemetery on the Haunted Hayride with several of your friends. Trapped inside, it was up to you to rescue everyone before sunrise. Bonus waves including a river ride were included."

I played this when we had an arcade at a mall in Oceanside, CA.

Last I heard it's now a buffet place

Wait, like there's a house of the dead 5? Or do you mean 4? Cause 4 was good

this shit was a leg workout man. also playing it multiple times and finding tiny little cracks to shoot through made me feel like I was almost cheating.

I seem to remember watching a video that showed that that one is literally impossible to single token. It just gets really bullshit as it goes along.

NOW I'M ANGRY!!!!!!

Hard to say whether DDRMAX or EXTREME was where DDR peaked, but I remember when my parents would take us to the mall and give my sister and I $20 each and drop us off at the arcade while they window shopped... The DDR cabinet was front and center, right at the entrance of the arcade so it was impossible to miss.

For the time, we thought it was pretty cool being able to hang out with and keep up with these hardcore motherfuckers who were decked out in rave pants, dreadlocks, and fluorescent strips all over.

What's more, there was no bullshit like input lag or other weird shit that could interfere with the play experience. Shit, this wasn't even something people knew about or considered in the CRT era.

2019 is a tough year to like DDR. Can't trust that the arcade near you will have a machine that functions well enough to play. Lag, machine issues, and other shit... Straight up better off buying or building metal pads and playing Stepmania at home for hours and hours.

Watch Japanese Arcade Videos on Youtube.

It's always the same couple doing them and they never try different arcades at all and can't even recognize the difference between Digimon and Pokemon.

Feels pretty sad but wow, Japanese Arcades really treat their customers well. Arcade Prizes in Japan are actually worth the money, even arcades aimed for children.

I seen Sanrio Arcades hand out grand prizes that have a high resell value.

Makes me wonder how Japanese Arcades don't go broke.

Still up and running. Damn i missed see DDR everywhere. Last i saw was in Arcade Odyssey where they had a perfect machine. Other than that, a local LAN house (Versus in Pompano) that had a ITG hacked machine that was removed recently. Damn i miss them so much.

It's full of boring streaming patterns bro. The main theme's motif is not as strong as in Stage 1, YES I know you are in Hibachi's lair and the atmosphere has to be strong but it certainly is not on par with other Stage 5 themes composed by Namiki.

DAYTONAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

I can't into DDR and PIU for some reason but I prefer dancerush when it comes to movement-based rhythm

I remember there was this one game where you drive an ATV through like jungles and stuff and it was cool because the atv you are riding on moved with the game and your character in game got dirtier as the game progresses.

I only saw it at a movie theater though.

Yeap, though I'm quite shit at it at this point mainly due to being a fatass.
Can barely clear double 12's at this point...

I've got a pinball table but I'd dig a NeoGeo, especially if I could get a candy cab for it.

Isn't Dark Legacy a straight upgrade to Legends, though?

Mind dropping a link to that video? I used to love that game.

I work at a indoor funhouse place called Iplay. I’m in the arcade it’s a good job with friends. Only problem is customers are dumb shits and I will never get pic related out of my head. We also have a Wizard of Oz coin pusher that goes FOLLOW THE YELLOW BRICK ROAD every 10 minutes

I have one of these.

It is. Nostalgia works in strange ways.

Apparently there was a 32 player version of this thing or attack of the zolgar

Shame Round 1 is awfully run in America.

It's a completely different experience because Round 1 in Japan owns the actual building for their arcades including the property.

Round 1 in America just rents space from Malls that are losing profit and therefore want to squeeze out as much money from a sucker like Round 1. More rent money means less attention to customer service for Round 1 and less refreshes/updates for Round 1 locations in America.

I just think Round 1's CEO doesn't see the inevitable bankruptcy he will experience for trying to make it big in America.

The Arcade Culture in America is also very different from Japan's. In Japan, office workers after getting off from work will head to arcades, spending more money than children.

In America, the customer is not willing to put as money into the arcade machines as the Japanese.

If I was CEO of Round 1 and really wanted to not half ass an attempt into the American market, I honestly look for locations near big universities like "College Towns". I would not be renting space from dying indoor malls.

Hey, my big fat american hand needs IL Eurosticks.

fuck this game, in fact fuck all coin ushers in general. I cant count how many times these things would jam up on people or the cards would get stuck.

what components does it use.

Arcades dont charge you $60 just to get in to spend more money

All the good arcades are in those indoor fun places or the Boardwalk. Unless your roadtrip for a specialty arcade

Ok, that actually looks kind of fun.

But, I've long since given up DDR and other dance games in favor of real dancing (lindy hop/swing) which ends up being cheaper and more entertaining on average than any rhythm game.

There was an initial D game at the gameworks in my city that had the seat hanging from a thing above you, so it would actually twist sideways as you drifted.

At the time I had no idea what initial d even was, I just assumed it was another racing game, so I didn't like it. Wish I could play it now.

Here in FL there is a place called arcade Odyssey where they have that one, pretty good but man do you get worn out playing it

Why was there a terminator game at a chuck e cheese.

Wait, forget that, why were YOU at a chuck e cheese? You better say you have kids user.

what weapon does 5 use I saw something like a tmp but wasnt sure

this went on auctions sadly, post more pics

also youtube.com/watch?v=KXZgc3iI2g0

tell me if still works pinsane2.com/pinorama/events/MJ_09/kr/michael_jackson_arcade_entry.html

Unless the gun is mounted, I can imagine why this doesn't see much play anymore.

do these still exist? asking for myself. Very Important. PLEASE RESPOND! isn't galloping ghost arcade one?

so the object of the game is to hit the button to drop a marble. The marble is meant to land inside one of three slot drops. if you manage, it triggers the bonus wheel where you get shit like instant 5 marble drops, more marbles in your stock to drop when you want, a card drop (which are worth 50 tickets but you're meant to collect a set of 9 to cash in for 3k) or a chance at the big dick bonus wheel. The BDBW has a chance for a 500 marble bonus

There's a "pay once at the door" barcade in Providence

It's something at least.
I found a brand new kof12 machine in a chuck e cheese's once.
It was pretty weird, like they ordered it by accident and the manager just decided to stick it in a corner.
That was over 10 years ago and I haven't seen another local fighting game machine since then.

Niece's birthday party.
I went before in 2011 for her third birthday and they had there. It's not the 90's game, but but a new game. I think EA did it.

Yep, just install flash.

Chuck E Cheese is weird, they gave away free pizza during the presidential elections. Let me tell you sitting there waiting for free pizza was one of the most awkward experiences of my fucking life but I wasn't turning down free pizza when I'm hungry and nearby

I hate that this is the first thing I thought of

one two and three, but in if they have the active recoil guns on it. those Lethal Enforcers shit replacements they would get every so often were so shit

I could never beat the nuke stages.

I beat the superior version.

Sucks that the Ripley's Believe It or Not at Myrtle Beach (Where I played the machine) got rid of it, cause someone apparently got injured from it and I think legal actions were taken.

as much as the undeserved shit talking round one gets, it has a ton of fighting games. Mine has Tekken Tag 2, GG Accent Core +R, CvS2, KOF 98 '02 and 14, SNK Heroines BBCF, BBTAG, P4U, Nitro+ BlastersMarvel 2, USFIV and SFV. Shit's dope

I'll always be surprised at how fair the Halo arcade game is considering it's a Raw Thrills machine

>So you only have to focus on your lane and help other players because 3/4 sets of enemies won't be attacking you

Usually these things devour credits like nobody's business.

Imagine being this guy. Arguing in favor of gatcha shit and loot boxes.
Imagine what this individual must be like.

I want to get into jamma stuff. Building an arcade cab or gutting a broken candy cab seems really fucking comfy.

I think the Round 1 shittalk comes because some places are flat out neglected in the states. You got one of the good ones, but not everyone is as lucky.

Surely it had some kind of safety mechanism?
I wonder how the thing worked, I can find basically no info on it

The round one near me has nothing but glorified smartphone games (flappy bird, jetpack joyride, etc.), a fuckton of claw machines, and like 3 weeb games like the taiko drum one
I live near a gameworks and I haven't tried going there yet, but I've been thinking about going later. Anyone know how gameworks is? The last time I went to one was basically a decade ago

what is this picture implying

Mine is. It's fucking awesome. Take a look

That's MJ's arcade room.
Speaking of which, Chuck E. Cheese back in 90's had a much better setup of games. Now it's mostly shit you can play on a phone.

How does that place even survive any more? Their pizza is fucking horrible.

Little Caesar's still exists, so basically any combination of bread and sauce and cheese should be able to stay afloat

based hikadabro

mine has a small corner of thoe type of smartphone ticket games. The crane and claw game is bigger by comparison. There's the american RAW THRILLS corner, the rhythm game corner, the Maximum Tune / Initial D corner, the fighting game corner. I honestly feel blessed reading some of the stories of various round ones

I'm trying to remember a game a local skating rink used to have. It was a two player co-op about to rambo lookin' dudes crash landing in a jungle. I was top down and the sticks had a special feature where they could twist all the way around and that was how you maneuvered your guy around.

>That one kid that would throw a fit if he didn't get Wolverine

Where my Nightcrawler bros at?

>Philadelphia or Pennsylvania
bruh

Speaking of claw games, do yall have the various Dragon Ball, One Piece, Hero Academia, Card Capture Sakura or JJBA claw games? I spotted a Bruno Buccillati figure today

>YES I know you are in Hibachi's lair and the atmosphere has to be strong but it certainly is not on par with other Stage 5 themes composed by Namiki.
Nah, it's the coolest shit, it sounds oppressive and really feels like there's a ton of fucking pressure on you, and having the music slow down and the motif come back in as you're approaching the final boss is real fucking sick. The rest of the BGM is synced to the different parts of the stage as well, it's great.

That place is fucking rad. I wish I didn’t live so far from it, otherwise I’d go to the fighting game tournaments all the time. And yeah, that Fist of the North Star game is really fucking cool.

Cheap games and a cheap entry fee. The pizza is passable if you eat it fresh. Somehow I can't decide if Pizza Hut or Chuck E. Cheese has worse pizza.

H.Mita for Smash fucking WHEN

there are good arcades out there like the few gameworks that still exist, but round ones are infamous for being shitty normalfag hubs with nothing but mobile games

don't be mad because it's gone, be happy it was around when you were young.

Pizza Hut by a country mile. Fuck pizza hut

Oh SHIT I remember playing this for hours with my best friend at like 10pm at the waterworld arcade. Fuck I completely forgot how good that game was

Bros. If I ever get rich I'm gonna build a massive multilevel warehouse of arcade games, set them all to free play, and let people come in for 20 bucks a pop. Hire techs to keep uptime as high as possible as well as keep the exteriors as pristine as the day they were made. get some chefs to make bombass pizza by the slice, cold drinks and booze by the cup, and host tourneys and shit for fighting games. also gonna get that wacky carpet everywhere.
fuck. I'm so angry at the current fucking state of the arcade industry.

Children have no standards, they serve alcohol to the adults who can freely ignore their little shits, and it's a hotspot for WORLDSTAR fight footage.

So WB might have it? Fuck.

I know what you mean, the same shit happened to me. Those machines are designed to be impossible to win until enough collective money has gone into it. Basically, everyone’s contributing to a pool, and when it’s gotten $1,000 or so, it’ll give up the iPod.

Before this thread ends, I think you anons can help me. I remember this one arcade game back in the community center of my childhood that had a blue and pink controller that could bump into one another, as the characters in game ran through hallway like levels.

I fingered my sef today

Panic Park.

blast city or versus city

Ocean Hunter or Virtual On. If I have to pick just one, I'm gonna have to go with Ocean Hunter.

I ctrl-f'd to find you my man.

I don't even fucking know what people in my area do for fun anymore.
All the arcades, skate rinks, and activity places I used to frequent all closed down in the early 2000s, we literally only have restaurants, sports bars, and innumerable bubble tea joints now.
You would think an area filled with tons of asians and high income citizenry would have at least one fucking arcade or at least a barcade.

No one goes out anymore

I wonder that too. There's nothing to do anywhere, and getting out and meeting people in a place of common interest like an arcade or hobby shop is gone. It seems like we as a species decided it's better for humanity to just let everyone roll the dice on everyone we meet at a bar or work on what they like.
I dislike commitment but it seems like joining groups, clubs, or forums online is the only place to find a mass amount of people with similar interests. Meeting folks casually is gone, as everyone who goes out alone to a bar or club usually wants to get laid, so the intention is known beforehand. I just want to make friends you know.

I was a day camp counselor at a church camp this summer, and on one of our field trips to a trampoline park me and some 2nd graders spent an hour beating this game. Ended up costing me over $40 but my little buddies needed me.

I bet there's 100 people who listened to the soundtrack online for every 1 person who actually had a chance to play it.

? They're still open. They just had a Unist tourney there today.

It's for if you don't want to use the stick.
It has both.

Every laundromat owns of one of these

that UFO catcher has seen better days

Why would you not want to use the stick? Is this a port of a console game or something?

Museca had its network support shut down so it makes sense for that one too have no network.
It's either that or turning it into Bishi Bashi which is a better game anyways

Me and my friends probably spent a good $30+ each beating it.
