Everytime I go to the video store I plan on picking up some Vinegar Syndrome Blu ray porn but I don't want to be that guy. I'm also deathly afraid of getting hit by a car on the ride home and passerbys giving me disapproving looks as the porn spills from my backpack onto the roadway.

Second episode of Legion was definitely not as good as the pilot but still very good. The Legion TVIV thread, like most, is horrible.

Anonymous Robot posted:So there's apparently a giant arcade stocked with tons of imported cabinets in the middle of nowhere, attached to a dead mall in Taunton, MA. I went there expecting a Dave and Buster's kind of deal and was pleasantly surprised to find tons of classic fighting game cabs, as well as fun gimmicky stuff like Taito Drummer and that dumb table flipping game. A huge section of UFO cranes, too. Probably the coolest thing I saw was this game Gunslinger Stratos, though, which is an extremely anime game that's in the 3rd person team-vs action genre that's gotten big over there, like Gundam VS etc. What's especially interesting, though, is that it uses a lightgun mechanic- the guns have joysticks on them for moving your character, but the aiming is done with the pair of akimbo pistols, which have magnets embedded in them so that when you link them together in different configurations, your character will equip a different weapon. It's super cool and actually a good game, to boot. That place rules, but all my friends are losers and they won't go there with me. Also did you play that weird Japanese game where you're placed in various domestic situations and you have to get mad and flip the table over? I consider it to be the centerpiece of that whole place. Apparently the name of the game in English is "Extreme Table Flipping".

I wonder what the outlay for a place like this is. I know rent is next to nothing in one of these dead malls but I can't imagine how much all those cabs cost.

Pinball tables also just inherently cost more, since there are a lot more parts that are basically all difficult to source in tyool 2017. Arcade boards are fairly cheap by comparison and, outside of CRTs, don't really have components that are hard to get.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:Why's that? As said before, arcade games are just video games in funny boxes, while pinball machines are, besides being impossible to reproduce, more complicated, take way more upkeep, and cost way more (partially due to their limited nature, most only had production numbers in the low thousands, and partially because of the current pinball boom). SEX HAVER 40000 posted:Isn't someone in here a Seattle pinball nerd and if so where do I go for those hot rhythm games aside from Gameworks that's me! You might try Round One at the Southcenter Mall, I haven't been but I think it's more modern stuff than most of Seattle's arcades.

Skwirl posted:I don't think you're allowed to complain about the sun if you live in "The Sun State." Grand Canyon State. For an Urban Studies class, my final was a hypothetical city project with an unlimited budget. Since I had an unlimited budget, I figured I didn't need to be practical with my hypothetical city project. I chose to tear down down the dying Metrocenter Mall, and turn it into a thriving park. To symbolize the area's resurrection, in the center of this park would have been a man made lake with a small island in the center. In the island, would be a 100 foot statue of a phoenix. It's beak would point to the sky and every hour, on the hour, it would create a piercing, shrieking "KAAAAW" and waves of flame would erupt from it's maw. Then, every ten years, it would be demolished and rebuilt 50% larger. I got 100% on that final.

It's not that actual arcades would be using dummy cabs, so much that dummy cabs, MAME, and such provide options to hobbyists outside of owning the original hardware. However, with pinball machines arcades and hobbyists are in competition for the same limited number of machines.
