Arcade Otaku - アーケード オタク

tldr - this is a product for arcade operators and is priced accordingly - consumers are welcome to purchase if they are inclined to/overwhelming demand in Japan, even at this price point To answer some of the questions posted recently: 1. This product has always been targeted to arcade operators. I...

We appreciate all of the excitement that can be seen here. When preorders go up, there will be a note here. You can check Famitsu and other Japanese media for the latest as we released more info today. More to come soon. Tell it to them, IKD. https://66.media.tumblr.com/90130b0f19d80e5078b4d3f0882f5...

Original Noir and Lindbergh cannot rotate normally. Most of the monitors are now in poor shape and they are 768p. As previously said, there are many revisions of monitors. In all of the Diamonds that we bought, it had much worse display lag than C or F. Also, you will need to take into account the ...

Did you remove the protection glass for your test ? I suppose so, right ? Otherwise you would have gotten quite some fluctuating measurements. maybe it would be smart to add the Monitor ID in your test, like this it is pretty useless. @Shou why don`t you post the results from your tests ? Then we c...

i did alot of Leo Bodnar (720p) testing on the F, FC, AMI, L and DIA. And i can asure you that while the (first gen) LG Panels of the L and AMI are not as fast as the onces in the F, FC and DIA, none of them will cause any noticable delay. No idea where the warning for the DIA comes from, the delay...

would you be so kind to post a short notice here once the pre-order go live ?

Yes

I've only just noticed the attract mode :awe: it appears that the system shows the game located in each slot and cycles between them. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EEGkQ64U0AArbk5?format=jpg&name=small This is the first time we’ve had the full attract modes on test. The menu screen will recognize all...

Isn't the export market like less than 1% of the size of the domestic Japanese market? I'm sure I read some ridiculous number like that somewhere. The Chinese market is bigger than Japan. Japan is stagnant to declining but is the hardest market to penetrate. Note that even the top Chinese (Wahlap, ...

This week is GTI and TGS so not around to reply to everything. For the concerned topics: 1. 1st lot preorders from overseas will likely get the unit before the Japanese operators 2. It’s actually going to be sold less than the Japanese price for overseas buyers 3. Patches in this run are only handle...

I'm guessing that all of these kits wil be reprinted once they sell out. I assume by "limited" you mean on initial release? Also well done for making this new Hardware and wrangling so many developers :thumbup: I imagine this wasn't an easy venture. Depends upon the game but we have a limited produ...

It’s on a cabinet basis for the period we do a test in a given location. Ok, but then it is not really surprising that the EXA Cab will generate more (single cab based) income when you only have one, while let say Tekken 7 FR R2 runs on 10 or more cabs. :think: As an arcade owner, you look at how m...

Average net income per title meaning after costs like forced revenue share, printer (FGO), etc How is that possible ? How many Cabs do you have on Location in Japan ? Or are we talking about a certain Location your date is based on ? Even that would be odd as i would expect the Ratio is atleast 5:1...

It has by far the most income out of any product in the standard cabinet category. We have beat Nesica, All Net, Gundam, Tekken and SF5 by wide margins every time. Would you care to explain your measurement details? You are comparing a single cab income with your location test cab income? Average n...

I have some general questions; 1. What is the expected retail price of the motherboard + game 2. Can a game be swapped between different motherboards? Thanks Japanese price will differ from other regions as our distributors have controls over that. A lot will be available to North American and Euro...

The arcade version has to be unique/exclusive (correct me if I'm wrong Shou). :think: wait and see. I was excited but not anymore .I played to aka to blue at the hey for me I saw no differences with mobile version .It was just more fun to play at aka on a vewlix cabinet, Type-R will never go to con...

These will fly off the shelves once there's a CAVE stamp on the box

IKD is going to give it to you soon enough

I asked Shou about it directly (CRT version) since I only own CRT cabs, and he said its pretty much the bottom priority and required the purchase of extra hardware. I would imagine that it's nothing they're proud of, and should only be used as a very last resort. I'm just going to forget it was eve...
