I am less shocked by the cardboard than by the collector’s items....

I was going to do a run of Exa box protectors in the new year :D

Like others, I am not surprised that Exa Arcadia is selling like hotcakes in Japan since it is their most active market, in spite of the pandemic. I hear from a few folks like Arcade Heroes that tout that 2021 will be the year of Exa Arcadia.

Even the latest announcement of Exa Arcadia IO boards are sure going to help strengthen its brand.

I thought we wouldn't see them until next year 😅

I guess that would have been the case with EMS.

It's luck really. EMS shipment from Japan to Belgium takes 2 days. BUT it then may stay at Belgian customs for up to 2 months.
If you're lucky, your package is not held for inspection and is released directly making it as fast as DHL for one third of the cost.

#42 reporting in!
Limited edition arrived today in Hokkaido, despite the blizzard outside.

The game may not look the best, but it feels and plays great! exA Label’s adjustable difficulty, while high, makes it approachable.
I can see myself easily spend the next year or so on it.

The print quality on the motherboard is much better than I was expecting. Looks really good.
Oh and the pop is huge. Like I-have-no-idea-what-I-am-going-to-do-with-this-thing humongous. It is wider and nearly as tall as my office door.

Finally, the exA system by itself is really nice. It may be Windows-based, but there is absolutely no way to tell from the outside. It boots in what, 20 seconds? The game itself loads in less than 10 seconds on top of this.

If he plays on a HD screen, it will look worse than Shikhondo or Aka & Blue for sure. I think I'll put this one in a Naomi.

Oh don’t get me wrong, it looks certainly fine, but it’s still upscaled 720p, compared to Aka&Blue’s native 1080p.

That option was not available (fortunately) but I guess 4 wouldn't make a difference if you have 1 already! :lol:

It's not foldable? So it's like a door sized package? :wtf:

I hear my mobo and cart have arrived but Maria is enjoying a break in the East Midlands.
