Here’s some pretty good news for one arcade company to talk about, Incredible Technologies (makers of Golden Tee and Silver Strike Bowling) has been named by the National Association for Business Resources one of Chicago’s “101 Best & Brightest Companies to Work For”. This is not an entity within the arcade industry so it’s »
DDRX location test report
(Image via MIYA the attic. The identities of the players will not be televised :P) Konami’s latest entry into the DDR series, Dance Dance Revolution X is currently on location test in Japan and one Japanese website has details on the game from one location. Naturally the translation isn’t perfect but if you’re looking »
Melty Blood Actress & Byon Byon location tests in Japan
Two games that were featured at this year’s AOU show have been seen on location in Japan, one the latest Melty Blood Actress game (a fighter) and the other Konami’s interesting ByonByon. ByonByon uses a different kind of controlling mechanism for gameplay, a sort of punching device that the player controls with both hands »
Virtua Fighter 5R location test in Japan
While it’s not surprising that Sega is now testing out the latest upgrade to the Virtua Fighter 5 in Japan, it is slightly surprising that the popular blog Wired covered it. It’s not the first arcade news they have covered as they have been taking a look at Street Fighter IV and with the »
Initial D5 on location test in Japan
Yep, add another racer to the slate of arcade releases this year. Sega is now testing the latest iteration of the Initial D series, Initial D5 in arcades in Japan, reports AM-Net.

BlazBlue on Japanese location test
BlazBlue is one of those fighting games which seems to have gotten a little lost in the shuffle – not surprising when you consider the big name fighters that have been announced and released this year, but a shame regardless.

Sega's Rambo on location test in Japan
I hadn’t heard anything about this one prior to today, but Kobayan reports that Sega has a new lightgun shooter out on test in Japan at the moment. Rambo is obviously based on the film series starring Sylvester Stallone, and is Sega’s first attempt at taking the license to the arcade (the company previously »
Action Deka special site and VF5R hits testing
Some more Japan news here with Konami gearing up the marketing on Action Deka with a new special site for the game that offers some more concrete details on the game including character, story, stage and control information and some larger screenshots of the gameplay (although for some reason they are saved as gifs »
Action Deka on test in the UK
One game that Konami has been working on that I have been interested in is Action Deka (or Action Cop), which uses some controls that reminds one of the Wii for driving, beat ’em up, and shooting action all in one game. Like we’ve learned with the Wii, motion based controls like this can »
Golden Tee 2009 Design-A-Hole Contest
When it comes to sports arcade games, no other game has as much recognition or as many releases as Golden Tee as they have released a GT title every year since 1989. Incredible Technologies has already begun work on the next GT game of course, GT2009 and this year to celebrate the games’ 20th »
