Announcement: Arcade Japan - new UK webstore

Post by Devil Soundwave »

Image

After many months of graft, I'm pleased to announce the launch of http://www.arcadejapan.co.uk!

Being a long-time member of the Japanese Candy Cabinet arcade gaming community, I've been frustrated by the limited access to quality Japanese and Asian arcade parts in Europe; either having to pay high prices from existing European online stores, or high import charges and shipping to buy directly from Japan. Well not anymore!

Stocking a range of arcade parts (including those all-important Sanwa and Seimitsu buttons and sticks), but at sensible prices rarely seen outside of Japan; Arcade Japan aims to become the destination website for the Japanese arcade games enthusiast and the custom arcade-stick console player alike.

Based in London, United Kingdom, Arcade Japan not only aims to provide the best possible prices together with a range of sensible shipping options, but also the best possible quality. We refuse to stock sub-standard items such as the widely available generic JAMMA harnesses, and instead will be seeking to have items manufactured to our specification wherever a quality alternative is not available.

The website is live now: http://www.arcadejapan.co.uk :D

If you spot any issues, please report them to info@arcadejapan.co.uk

I hope it was ok to post about this here, if not by all means zap it.

Cheers,

DS

I could use a certain stick modded, that almost certainly will require some parts imported, so... promising.

Obi - just drop me a note via the Contact email on my site with the sort of parts you are after and I'll see if I have room to put them in the next import. :)

It is, yes. I appreciate that may not be clear. I'll revise this.

EDIT - actually, if you mouse-over, it states the currency. LMK if this does not work for you and which browser.

After a three month wait, the SLS/Aoki arcade stools are back in stock! Get yours now!

Note I will be ordering these in on a more regular basis now that my supply line has proven to be reliable so they shouldn't drop out of stock nearly as often! :awe:
