Tis the season for game shows in Japan and while the Tokyo Game Show does not focus primarily upon arcades like JAMMA did, we still get the chance to see some of the journalists who flock to TGS check out some of the great Japanese arcades in Akihabara. One guy from G4TV made a stop at the Taito Station there and captured some video of Half-Life 2 Arcade, Taiko Drum Master, Beatmania IIDX 16 Empress and even Konami’s DrumMania V6 Blazing and GuitarFreaks V6 Blazing. Unfortuantely I can’t embed the videos on the site here so follow the link below to witness some arcade goodness from Taito Station.
We’ve had IIDX Empress at AI since like March and GFdm V6 for at least a month now 😡
