TAFA Opens The Curtain On Two New Archives

A few weeks back I brought you news of The Arcade Flyer Archive and their effort to launch two new archives, one for Pinball Flyers and another for non video game Arcade Game Flyers. On April 30th TAFA opened it's two new archives both of which can be accessed from their main page. The two new sections have been supplemented with over 400 new flyers each in addition to the many that they already had in the mix. Also present is a fancy new logo and streamlined navigation system.

AOU2006: Taito's Half-Life 2 Survivor

Wow. Check out Half-Life 2 Survivor! Looking good, my friend. I'm glad Taito didn't go quite as crazy with the Half-Life 2 multiplayer game as Namco did with Counter-Strike for Japanese arcades. More »

AOU2006: Sega Shows Virtua Fighter 5, House of the Dead 4

The AOU, which is really short for All Nippon Amusement Machine Operators' Union, held its 2006 exhibition over the past two days and Impress Game Watch was on site to give us all the arcadey pixelated dirt. More »

Virtua Fighter 5 Testing Is A Beautiful Thing

Sega's newest Virtua Fighter did a little arcade testing last week, and WannaFight.us braved extremely polite warnings to film some sweet shaky cam videos for you. The game already looks brilliant in stills, but seeing it in motion (despite being out of focus, slanted and seemingly filmed during an earthquake) makes it that much more desirable. More »

Soul Calibur III to Hit Arcades

Insert Credit reports that Soul Calibur 3 is getting ported to arcades. This was revealed at a Namco private show, and the release is planned for next spring. Good news for Soul Calibur fans. (Soul Calibur fans that live in Japan, that is.) More »

Mario Kart Arcade Up Close and Personal

After buying my 360 on Saturday morning, I stopped by a game center for a little Mario Kart fun. Nobody was around, save for some little girls playing Oshare Majo. In the day's fitting denouement, I had to go at it alone. Game's a definite winner. Pics to follow. More »

Retro Invaders Arcade Cabinet

Buttonmashers have outdone themselves this time: usually content on making fantastic-looking game controllers, they've gone and built a whole arcade cabinet, complete with custom paint job, authentic arcade controllers, a hardwired from the video card (no TV-out) setup and .. to top it all .. it's networked.

Japanese Upskirt Arcade Game

Peeping Toms and widespread groping are so bad in Japan that trains in Osaka and Tokyo have "Women-only" coaches. A much needed police crack down has resulted in multiple arrests of organized gangs and respected members of the community. Fortunately, or unfortunately, there's an arcade game that lets pervy men look up women's skirts without getting arrested by the cops. I have no clue about how this game works, don't know the name of it or anything else about it. (Not that I'd want to.) Our naughty-sister site Fleshbot's got a link to a short clip, which says more than words. And well, if Fleshbot's linking it, ya might wanna wait until after work to check it out. More »
