I need to pick this up. I liked the first one a lot, but I don’t know how it would be possible without a guide.

i'm managing without a guide only thanks to OneNote automatically doing OCR when I paste screenshots of every drat thing i see



pretty slick, tbh. i find i'm actually enjoying myself doing things this way, i expected it to be a huge pain in the rear end

ooh nice, I used OneNote for some elden ring notes, but that seems like a great system. I’ll definitely give it a try

gently caress yes

my long term goal is to open an arcade and populate it with poo poo like this among all the other games. I’m thinking an old skating rink building would be perfect size for a huge game space. think Dave and busters but less sports bar and more classic and modern arcade fusion. I want the aesthetic of the foot clan arcade/lair from the first tmnt movie in the 90s, just less smoking

there’s an arcade nearby that has a ton of custom cabinets for fighting games and they have several different leagues and it’s hugely popular here

they also have at least a dozen DDR cabs and a gazillion claw machines and pachinko machines

it’s fun to take the kids there in the winter to get them out of the house

those people clearly Give A poo poo about arcades.


its cool that there are so many dave and busters but the game quality fuckin sucks. over half of it is just “smartphone game but giant” and not a single fighting game or beat em up in sight.

they also invariably have the bullshit ddr clone “pump it up” with the dumb 5 button pad and awful song lists. theres some pretty ok barcades around but a lot of places throw in a bunch of neogeo and pacman cabinets and call it a day.

its me i have loving opinions about arcades. having been to the tokyo, the holy land of arcades a ton between 1995-2005 as a kid/teenager on the way to visit family in indonesia i was lucky enough to play all the insane poo poo the companies were pumping out over there. i honestly thought arcades as an adult would be full of games like that timtok and theyre just. not and that bums me out the most considering were otherwise living in the cyberpunk dystopia of my 12 year old dreams

arcades do seem to be a dying genre what with smartphones and uh.. other things that have happened in the five decades since 2015

atmospherically, they could not be beat. there was a neat laser tag place right next to the tatong arcade, but it was always too expensive for me to play at

All the good games are gray market, that's why they don't show up at Dave and busters etc

The only us arcade that is sort of allowed to run them legit is Round One and that's because they are a Japanese company

arcades own but they've been pretty dead until the somewhat recent popularity of barcades and retro revivals
