Big grin Great

The day has finally arrived (Well yesterday) when the emu I've been waiting for has finally been released, the Namco system 11, probably you all know about this, but just incase you don't visit the Impact Emu web site.

I haven't tried it yet and there is no sound, but nevertheless, it's still a great day for the emu scene IMO

Big grin And not only that, peeps.... *not only that*...

...but a new program which gives you the opportunity of playing six (at the moment) renditions of all-time classics in a 3D Virtual Reality environment has just come out as well! Simply click once on the title, Virtua Arcade, download the thing, try it out, read the stuff on the web page and drool with delight at the shape of things to come. It's currently beta as of now, but it's still pretty good.

It's under development and, get this, is expected to feature 74 more games by June '02!!!

(swoons with glorious delight) (gets up again a few minutes later)

However, despite there being a download page, it appears you will have to e-mail the guy directly and request for the download link (don't know why, maybe you should ask him?).

Oh, and I also congratulate the ImpactEmu team for making the first steps towards Namco System 11 emulation (I don't want to degrade the quality and importance of your post, Ian ).

Or maybe you could ask him if you want it so bad?

I e-mailed him once already yesterday, but I wasn't thinking about the "asking him" idea back then (it came to my mind after I sent it). And since I'm worried I might annoy him or something if I e-mail him again, I reckon I missed the boat to tell you the truth.

This pretty much explains why I suggested someone here do it for me since I forgot.

Man you are sad. Why don't you go to a REAL arcade and play teh bloody games? Or are you glued onto your sister's computer? This is not a bash, this is an advice. If you like arcade games, go to one and play them! It's great

Good advice Akira. Although not as good as they once were, arcades are still pretty nice places . If you're lucky Marz, there are sometimes ladies there, and if you're really lucky, you can get to play with them.

Here we haev arcades with MANY classics, I bet at least ONE in your area has old classics (because they are cheaper!). I can play Pacman, Pacland, Pacmania, Galaga, Gaplus, Wonderboy, Atari Tetris, Outrun.... you name it!

Here we have one arcade (If it hasn't closed yet). Once it was good. A nice place to visit. Last time I went there most of the machines were broken. It was the same old games which wouldn't be that bad if they weren't broken most of them. I think the games which worked were the slot machines which were of no interest and the game of Aliens with the two guns. Not really much to go to an arcade for
