We’ve received a final batch of pictures from the IAAPA show in Florida (thanks again to Kevin Williams of The Stinger Report)and it’s only fitting to ‘finalize’ our coverage of the event. Overall I think that it was a great show, in terms of new games and what we can look forward to coming »

Capcom: No SFIV Arcade for the US
I figure it’s good to get this out of the way before the main page is flooded with IAAPA info. Capcom has come around and made it official – SFIV will not come to arcades in the US. It’s not much of a surprise now since the console release is in Februrary and the »

Konami is location testing the next version of their GuitarFreaks and DrumMania games in Japan (the original use-a-music-instrument-as-a-controller games) and it seems like it wasn’t long ago that they were doing the same with GFV5 and DMV5.

Tomorrow a big arcade competition is going down, this time it’s the Big Buck Hunter Pro World Championship.

Kawasaki Warehouse – Location Report, Japan
Wow, I have just got back from Japan and made a fabulous discovery whilst I was there: Kawasaki Warehouse This incredible arcade has been built from the ground up to look like a disused, run-down warehouse complete with rusting doors and peeling paint but is in fact a fantastic site with some great games. »
GlobalVR unveils Sky Bandits
