Well, months later, I finally have my exA unboxed and hooked up. It's... uh... real nice. It feels polished. My only game so far is Aka & Blue (because that's the one you have to get, really) and it hasn't disappointed - it's kind of weird to play a new shooter that feels like it's up to snuff with the classics. People weren't kidding about the difficulty though :wtf:. The low input lag makes the game feel great, and I'm impressed by how readable the bullets are despite the sheer amount of chaos on-screen at any given time.

So, it's been worth the wait for me.

Enjoy.
No disrespect to the other titles, but A&B is still the No. 1 reason to own the hardware IMO. It's fantastic. Assuming it's just a mobile port is like saying the CAVE mobile games are a good substitute for the arcade versions.

Interesting that the version here has mounting holes. I bought one from Redsuns (a process that took nearly half a year between being placed on a waitlist and pandemic-era surface shipping) and the complete lack of mounting holes leaves me without any secure means to stop the board from shorting itself on the nearest bare metal.

Didn't Tanoshimasu disband? The AtB programmer is working on the Touhou game for exA.

It's a newer version. It's functionally the same. There's a 3D printable case design for the old version that you can download from Thingiverse.

Sorry to hear that. It was version 1.00 PCB. The version 2.00 PCB we sell now has the mounting holes. At least you were one of the first to get it, as we were the first company to sell this device in the West (the English notice was made for us, it was previously only available in Japanese). Regarding shipping, all orders are sent as priority mail but I guess it took that long because of bad timing. It's no luck really. Those in hurry can choose tracked shipping which is registered priority mail and takes less than one week to reach any destination in the World (which should be the case of any priority mail anyway).

I hope that you are happy with the product despite this.

No, they have not. There is a health issue so they are on hiatus until there is a full recovery.

100+ credits later, and Aka & Blue continues to deliver. I think this might be in my top 5 shooters. It's just such a satisfying game to play.

Also ordered a couple more exA games to add a little variety, which I think confirms that I've been indoctrinated into the cult.

Looks like it.

Looks like P47 Aces has a location test coming up in a couple days, too. There's a flurry of tweets about it, anyway. I can't read any of them.

Yes, the location tests starts tomorrow. These will be held at the same locations as Samurai Shodown.

At Club Exa (WGC), all Vewlix cabs have been upgraded to the 2019 Taito Tech monitors, Noirs are the blue 1080p monitors and Lindberghs are upgraded to the 1080p monitors from Chunithm.

If you’re not linking cabinets, any of the LCD cabinet JVS IO boards will be fine.

On Taito JVS IOs, just insure that your PSU is outputting a consistent +12v to power the IO board. We have seen brownouts on older Vewlix models which will cause an IO error so just get a multimeter out and measure what is going into the IO then adjust as needed.
Would those Chunithm monitors be available to the public for Lindbergh upgrades?
