I very highly doubt that the GDPR requires services to live in the EU. The impression I get is that GDPR requires informing users of data collection, and their rights in regards to how that data is collected and stored.

Yeah, if the service has a customer in the EU, they need to adhere to the GDPR. It doesn't matter where you put the servers.

You'd think that would be super easy to do. Literally just put a scroll-through T&C when you first make an eAmuse account or something.

There's some data collection when a card is first used on a machine, before an eAmuse account is registered for the card (if one is, this is optional). Whatever would need to be done for compliance would have to be implemented to the game itself. You set your name and region, and the game does know which machines you've played on. All of that would likely fall under GDPR (though I'm not a lawyer).

There's also the point that when the GDPR first came into effect, a lot of websites just simply started blocking EU IP addresses instead of making sure they were compliant.

Well, it was a long run, but Konami announced that A's e-amusement support will be cut off February 27th, 2020.

So long Heat Power.

I'd assume that any public Ace cab has been updated to A20, and any private Ace cab is just running on event mode anyways.

I used to think the same, but then I've seen public cabs of other games staying in an older version for some reason or another (i.e. Taito Station at Shibuya had a HEAVENLY HAVEN cab even after more than a month of the release of VIVID WAVE).

---

That's because the transition from HEAVENLY HAVEN to VIVID WAVE required purchasing a new hardware kit, which some operators refuse to do.

A20 is deployed via an over-the-air software update, which is mandatory for online-connected cabinets.

A20 was not an online update for US machines, those had to get upgrade kits.

And this is nearly 4 years old....

Great Bump.

With arcades opening 15th July, some rules are in place. They are only letting 1 person to play this at a time, to comply with social distancing.
