Can't wait for INTERNET RANKING to begin. ;D I got a password... Oh by the way, it's not going to be high at all. XD

I'm not doing it because it will play out like this.

"Oh boy I get to see where I'm ranked across the world. Alright 6289th is not that bad... Wow I suck."

---

Yeah, but how is that compared to the size of the community? Surely it's at least in the top 50%. ;)
It'd play out the same way for me. That's why I don't bother to go to arcades. "Gee, I thought I was good, but this dude next to me has AAA'ed the last two sets."

lol

I will see the new song Saturday haha.

Hahaha, no. I wish I had that in my garage.

It's the machine at Solar Eclipse Laser Tag, Pennington, NJ.

The cart in the foreground was used to cart the cab inside. Otherwise that's what the whole place looks like. It's not really a typical arcade. Just Laser Tag with some AC games in the hallway.

Recently, as it WAS in the back of the place, they moved it to the front hallway:



The X is where it is now, crammed up against a 2P Basketball game, which is stupidly loud and annoying.

I hope those new SN2 pads are nothing like our Dancing Stage Fusion AC ones were when they were first installed with awful sensors and terrible freeze control. After EuroMIX and EuroMIX2's pads were perfectly fine it's hard to understand how Konami (or should I be saying Betson here ) could mess up their own design for new pads.

Anyway moan about e-Amuse all you like, at least you HAVE SN2. Even with restrictions on hardware I can't understand why Konami can't even release update packs for the many SN1's in Europe at least. As far as I know there are no changes to the hardware itself in the upgrade so I can't understand what is stopping them unless the restriction is even extended to upgrades.

---

Who cares about e-amuse if we still get unlocks through codes? All we're missing out on is score saving if I'm correct, and for that there's always the score tracker. (which I use)

And AceJay, I never even liked those basketball games myself. There's one in our arcade halfway across the whole room, with a thick line of Tekken, Pac-Man and pinball between; yet, it's piercing stupid whistle still distracts me when I'm playing. If I was a regular at your place, I would have already complained to someone in high authority about the machine placement.

Totally random, but does anyone else here have a Jumpin' Jackpot at their arcade? I heard a rumor that it plays Bloodrush every now and then for the game music, but I don't even remember the source or how reliable it was. I highly doubt it, and I don't want to spend my money on that game, anyway.

---

Now that I think about it, I do think those machines (or another one I have in mind) plays Bloodrush for the game music.

Fuh-reaky.

---

Yeah Tim(cartoonhero) sorta had a video of it. Yeah its pretty funny to actually hear it.

Im still convinced Pump pads look nicer for longer



Crap camera phone picture but it works I guess. 2 months and still going strong . Also- Jumpin Jackpot doesnt play Bloodrush. Sorry. It does play Raver's Fantasy...but not Bloodrush. Trust me, thats after hearing the attract for hours and hours at my old job.

I would have expected more people posting in a DDR thread to be total lightweights. =P Good pads shouldn't require any specific weight to register freezes; so long as you're alive (and aren't 6 years old), you weigh enough. Though I know the feeling of horrible pads; I remember playing a machine where I dropped both sides of the left/right freeze at the beginning of V, and it's embarrassing when the only two arrows to hit are sliding by, N.G.'d... Don't have any problems now; 6'0" and 180 lbs. is good enough for pads of all conditions. =P

DDR players aren't exactly the most in shape btw.

It was indeed a 0, because there were 100 or less participants. (Top 100 Ranking)
I believe the Zukin Wars are total craps for the Americians now (Reason: e-AMUSEMENT enabled machines only a few for now) because as long as there are lesser than Top xxx (see below), it will always be a 0 XD Unless Konami do something about it, lol~

Episode 1: Top 100
Episode 2: Top 150
Episode 3: Top 200
Episode 4: Top 250

Therefore, it will be better not to participate the Zukin Wars. Just play the game with your personal goals will do, & get the new planet songs for everyone

Well I only go there once a week if at all. Hopefully I see the owner today and can tell him to place it on a different wall or something.

And then of course there's the issue of the 58743266431 preteen girls who sceam at eeeeeverything ~_~

I liked it back when I had 2 Solo 2k's in Chuck E. Cheese. 25 cents per play FUCK YEAH.

Anything new happening?

What's the point of having an arena if you can't get to it?XD

Oh, same with storage.XD

That reminds me.

I've been seeing a lot of Chuck E. Cheese commercials lately with kids playing PIU. Then I watched Family Guy where Bill Clinton was playing DDR.

Does anyone want to check some C E C's for DDR machines? XD

I have been to three, in the past 5 years I still have not seen one ever at a CEC location.

Also WTF do you watch to see those commercials? Pokemon? lol

I've seen some of those commercials when I turn it to Adult Swim before it "officially" turns into Adult Swim. Like the 5 minutes between the ending of Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy and the start of Family Guy. They're always playing Pump .

I've only been to one C.E.C. lately, and all they had was a pump machine.

And lol @ that Family Guy episode. "I'm a Barbie Girl! In the Barbie world!"

I watch Cartoon Network occasionally. Mainly for Chowder, MGPM, and Grim adventures of Billy and Mandy. I keep away from the "animated" crap they have on in the mornings and other times. I hate that stuff.

I'm 17 by the way.

Bill Clinton is so bad ass on Family Guy. XD
