I wanna mod a 573-era cab though...

I see no reason to use have a Betson dedi IMHO as the sensor aren't as good as the ones in 573 cabs.

Legislation was passed (Chapter 2015-221, Section 28, Laws of Florida) to create a 10-day sales tax holiday that will begin at 12:01 a.m., Friday, August 7, 2015, and end at 11:59 p.m., Sunday, August 16, 2015. During this period, no Florida sales tax or local option tax will be collected on sales of clothing, footwear, and certain accessories selling for $100 or less per item, on certain school supplies selling for $15 or less per item, and on the first $750 of the sales price for computers and certain computer-related accessories when purchased for noncommercial home or personal use.

More information at the link. I took advantage and bought me three pairs of shoes and too many jeans to count. I'll be buying more shoes later in the week.

Alright guys, time to wake this place up again.

DDR is returning. And I can confirm that a new machine is coming to D&B Orlando.

"Grade A KONMAI Quality"
This is great news! I have been to D&B once but it was so crowded that I couldn't stay to play anything, it was the night of the Rousey vs. Correia fight.

I haven't played DDR in a long time, been rehabbing a foot injury from a marathon. I'm excited to finally play again, hopefully on this new machine soon.

Has anyone been to Beach Fun & Games lately to check on the status of the IIDX Happy Sky machine? Last I heard (And this was a year ago or so) the plans were to upgrade it if they get more people in playing it.

I never go during fight nights. I have relatively early hours, so I come on Wednesdays when I get off work. Wednesday they have 1/2 off games all day.

There are rumors ranging anywhere from half of the locations to all of the locations. So chances are pretty good all five Florida locations (Orlando, Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Jacksonville, Panama City Beach) will get them.

But as of current, straight from the horse's mouth, Orlando is the only confirmed location. Big Grin Happy Tongue Evil Puppy

Its a sad day, Our only location for a DDR X2 has closed today in Jacksonville Florida,
http://www.actionnewsjax.com/news/news/local/latitude-360-closes-its-doors-overnight/npy48/

Latitude 360 Has closed its doors for good due to rent issues.
The cabinets are STILL in the building but cant be taken out until the building is paid for
They share a lease with another building but the OTHER company owes money.
This sucks and it is a sad day today.

I called the place, they were busy but they got down my contact info to call me back to see about upgrading the machine.

It's been about two weeks now, no call :/

Ugh! The hype!

I'm so glad the Orlando location will get it!

Hopefully places like Miami, Jacksonville, and Hollywood will get it as well. I will mainly be playing in Orlando though (unless they make a Tampa location and add DDR there as well).

So far as I can tell D&B has yet to get a Tampa location so that's out the window.

...buuuut, Tampa WILL be getting a machine that is BEMANI, and is probably one of the rarest machines to find in the US.

It's a post-2010 BEMANI game by the way ;)

It's actually a privately-owned arcade in the Tampa/New Tampa area, but the guy is really cool with having people over to play. It's where I have been playing ITG for the past...2/3 years now actually lol. He currently owns:

DDR EXTREME which he converted the cabinet into Open In The Groove
Pop N' Stage ex (a pretty rare BEMANI arcade game).

He's planning on getting a bunch more machines throughout the year, and one of them is coming very soon. I'll make a post when it gets over here Smile

Oh my gosh, so hyped!!! Please do keep us informed!

Also sad to hear about Beach Fun & Games. I'll talk to her in person soon, I'm going there this or next weekend for a Cigar City tour, I'll make a stop there afterwards.

Well.... I did go there a few months ago. They are still on DDR SuperNOVA and beatmania IIDX HAPPY SKY.

The IIDX machine there is perfect, but could be a newer game. The DDR SuperNOVA machine needs new pads and a new game. I can't stand SuperNOVA.

Otherwise, their games are fine.

Interesting.

The D&B Orlando X2 machine is no longer showing the USB option. It's probably been left on so long that the USB controller on the BemaniPC crashed. It may show up again if they reset it, it may not. Maybe I'll find out someday.

That's a shame really. I never got to try out DDR X2 or any DDR for that matter for Edit Data.
Hopefully they get the USB mode back up and running.

Update for everyone on Beach Fun and Games.

Alright so I went today and the beatmania IIDX HAPPY SKY cab is still in good condition. Probably no issues with it still. They keys work fine and the turntable is still really functional.

As far as the Dance Dance Revolution SuperNOVA cab it feels like it has gotton worse. The screen, and the UI buttons still work fine, but the speakers and the pads are really bad now. The speaker use to be nice and loud, but now it's pretty quiet and hard to here the music. As for the pads, you have to press extra hard on both P1 and P2 sides which makes it impossible to PFC anything.

TL;DR
Going for IIDX is worth the trip if you don't mind playing HAPPY SKY. If you wanna play DDR, play a CS version or go to Dave & Buster's in Orlando. They have DDR X2 at the moment and the pads are pretty much flawless. Plus, DDR 2014 is coming there anyway so get ready!
