more evidence for the "sega v namco wasn't truly the sega v nintendo of the arcade world" - namja town's been best mates (or a 'sister park', whatever) with joypolis for decades...

throwback to that one time i went to see the last ever (?) ridge racer full scale in the world and suddenly saw the place with it had this (and this only) strapped to the ceiling beams for no apparent reason

TIL makoto uchida of golden axe, altered beast, die hard arcade fame has quietly left sega (with his shanghai studio likely closed/reduced from where it was) after 38 years, to now work as a university professor... was hoping he'd do a few more years but what a run www.mgt.ous.ac.jp/staff/uchida/

i love the feature this is from, people forget how much of an art that arcade cabinet design is

and they finally turned him around! when i was there at the end of april... he had no mouth, and he screamed

feel like this early artwork of the amusement theme park concept would've worked well here too...

the only thing that would make me come around to the whole idea is if they had the nick arcade sonic 2 beta cabinet in there

it's times like this that i remember how there was a miku car skin in everyone's favourite unsuccessful AM2 racer r-tuned, before project diva arcade and nearly every other game featuring her actually released

this is second only to that moment where angels with burning hearts plays and everyone starts saying it fills them with the spirit of justice

just noticed my videos tab on here is still only clips of takenobu mitsuyoshi being takenobu mitsuyoshi, and now fully intend to keep that streak going

here he is singing the vocal virtua fighter 3 theme at the game's official japanese championship finals (sponsored by java tea!)

one of mine (@animatedaf.co.uk) went to london a few times and got one of the greatest ever photos out of the place, from when they had sonic the fighters and segasonic the hedgehog right next to each other... sega-memories.blogspot.com/2007/09/sega...

they do not make magazine covers like this anymore and it's everyone's loss

the thing is with this, if you look at the financial reports their revenues were immediately dwarfed when the MD got big as despite hits they'd never done as well as japan - which is why nakayama strongly believed these markets were "asleep", and put so much focus on them mdshock.com/2020/06/16/s...

hiro posted some great anecdotes about this on the other place... excuse the google translation twitter.com/Hiro_H10th/s...

tbf sega came first there with a sit-on jetski, whilst namco did a stand up one... konami themselves have more claim to being a straight ripoff of the latter with wave shark/jet wave
March 20, 2025 at 5:56 AM
fun fact btw, the sheer similarity of the two ended up with the JAMMA board of directors creating a specific charter to stop such blatant copying from happening and konami later using it as justification in all the bemani handwringing lol
