Thanks for posting these, Shou. Next time I'm at the arcade here, I'll return the favor. The style of games for the most part is very similar.
I go out to the suburbs to visit Ikea and Costco every so often which are both close to a very American like mall which houses a large Round 1 complex. Took a few pics of what they had including some Konami arcade titles which you rarely see in Tokyo proper. Interesting to note that there were no fighting games, only the latest Capcom Gundam, Maxi Boost, which has been a flop due to simplifying the game for noobs. The only gun games are the latest namco published titles: Dead Pirates Special Edition, Dark Escape and the AKB48 themed Zombie one. Also, surprised to see they had Raw Thrills' Super Alpine Racer but namco must be doing the distribution.

I miss the thrill of new arcade machines.

I miss the arcade scene of 1983-86, or thereabouts. Not the games themselves, because MAME, but the pre-internet, "who knows what you'll find when you walk into a new arcade" scene.

I miss the stupidly ridiculous rumors.
Yah man, Guile can pull out a shotgun
