Piloting killer robots in Japan

Post by undamned »

I know some of you have made it to Japan before, but the mark of a true champion is cramming yourself in to vehicles clearly made for small children:

^^ Looks like I should be somewhere in the artwork for Mappy.

^^ I'm pretty sure at this point we were telling Greg's wife to hurry up and take the stupid picture. I thought squeezing myself into that thing was a tight fit.

Hey, that Doremon wouldn't have happened to be in an arcade in Odaiba would it? The background looks very familiar. I took a very similar pick of my girlfriend and her friend in the same ride.

I have to see if I can track it down now.

Edit: Found it.

Remember that Namco racing game where it took your photo and placed it above your car so you could see whom you were racing against? My friend always stuck his bare ass up to the camera.

The prototype version of Bally Midway's Journey arcade upright (which was setup at a test location) had a built-in B&W camera to take pics of the arcade gamers' faces playing it. Some gal decided it'd be better to take a pic of her rack instead and it was featured on her player sprite in-game. Bally Midway wasn't pleased with this and axed this groundbreaking facial feature from later production Journey arcade cabs. Now you know the rest of the story behind Midway's Journey arcade game.

Yeah, I think so! It was this big mall that I think the name was "i" something? I was so pumped that the game center there had huge Bubble Bobble dinosaurs all over! When I first went to HEY, I was so bummed they didn't have anything like that. I was like "This is a TAITO run arcade!! Where are BUB and BOB??!!"
