is the phoenix cab 1 or 2 credits for premium?

I'm planning on visiting this arcade for the first time soon. Is the rhythm games section usually busy?

All online Chunithm cabs in North America and Europe are on the same network. Please don't say that data will be local to the cab only

Is there a reason the maimai cab is 1P only? Is it some requirement of using a priv server?

Do any of you know what that plush is in the Jubeat cab? What's it called I wanna buy one

The owner doesn't update this page actually it's mostly the people who own arcade cabs here.

Additional question : do the owners edit this arcade page? I posted that comment with the PS and then I was like "ah shit what if they don't look at it or anything" but before that I saw the "we have moved" ting so I thought "oh they know about this website cool" just wanted clarification I'm dumb sometimes💀💀💀

The cab is on 4MAX, the marquee is just not updated

Are y'all sure the Groove Coaster is 4Max? It says 3 on the cab
PS : love the little replacement box art for the games you guys have, the shaq fu one was really funny

The GX cab is now replaced with a LX cab!

MFC’d a couple of songs on STEPMANIA X took me an hour to get here to play it was really fun!

The GX cab is online again on XX, fully updated to 2.08. AM Passes are available up front for $7 (cheaper than everywhere else)

Initial D Zero is now for play. Cards are available up front for a limited time

Man am I so glad I live near an arcade with so many cool-ass rhythm games. They recently got a maimai cab and I think you can get Aime cards from them now?

place is pretty much a haven for rhythm gamers, just be warned if you come early hours the owner might be in the back of the building and might take a while to come back up front

This place is dope lol

My dad and I would visit Game Underground all the time. We became regulars ever since their original (actually underground) location by Worcester Road. We stayed with them even after they moved to the Natick mall, but they had to keep switching locations in the mall and we only visited their final Natick location once. We were devastated when they moved to Waltham, as it was now 30 minutes away instead of 5. We've only visited them once since their Waltham location, and that was when they just moved in so there were barely any games set up at the time. I really miss them, but now that Covid restrictions are slowly being lifted (and I'll be fully vaccinated soon!) I'm excited to see the place be as lively as it was in Natick and I hope that I can visit it again soon!

you guys have SDVX now? I totally wish you guys didn't move from natick

no they don't sell am passes

Do they sell A.M. passes

rip crackin dj

Arcade is back up

gcoaster is offline, needs backlight driver

Prime2 online GX!

All arcade machines are offline, expected to be back online around December 19th 2018. City of waltham made them shut them down pending fixing their license with the city

Games are now running on tokens instead of quarters. $25 in tokens can be bought for $20

Forgot to mention in my comment below that this is an awesome spot and the owner deserves props for supporting the rhythm game scene so much. You should definitely come here to support this small mom and pop shop keeping dance games alive in Boston

Stepmania cabinet is gone permanently (I confirmed with the owner). A number of rhythm games are up and running at the new Waltham location, including DDR 2014

Is pop'n up yet? was it upgraded to 24?

Reminder that the reflec machines here came all the way from New Zealand. Glad to see they're doing well

great games, great people. this is a serious top notch zone.

Thanks for playing my Maximum Tune machines during their stay!

Did they get Jubeat Prop before or after 8 On The Break did?

This place is a BEMANI fan's dream come true! I'd love to go here!

THEY GOT JUBEAT NOW YOOO

HOLY FRICK YOU GUYS HAVE REFLEC

HEY HOW ARE YOU GUYS RUNNING SPADA

How did you guys get SPADA?

F'reals.

Yo play Technika more please

We got Technika!

I believe they're working on getting a dedicated ITG PC for the SN2 cabinet, so I wouldn't expect it to stay that way for too long.
