As an effort to provide Japanese gamers with a portal for everything revolving around their arcade games, Konami has launched a new site that focuses on bringing game information, player rankings, discussion with mobile device support together to support the players. It’s only for Japan (which isn’t much of a surprise considering Konami’s weak arcade presence outside of there) but it is always good to see any company opening up the means to bring more attention to the content they offer.

I'm a lifelong fan of video games and I have been operating my own arcade, Arcade Galactic in West Valley City, Utah since 2008. Soft spots in my heart for Atari, Sega, and Nintendo.

    The e-AMUSEMENT service has been in operation for some years with Aps and support – while the new version of ‘e-Gate’ has just gone fully live – in time for the big tournament KDE will be running.
