Yes i have seen pics of the new improved machines as well as a few screens elsewhere, by all accounts it looks like a improvement on the first machine, however i have never been really been happy about Namco getting the title in the first place, even despite their obvious specialization in the field of arcade machines.

I sincerly hope Nintendo do not use this game no matter how good it is, as some sort of foundation framework that the Wii game should follow. LS

Smilie the first one was awsome... i havent played it but from the videos it looked awsome! So this is probably more awsome than he first one... awsome x awsome = awsomeness!! (dont know if that is a word or not!)

I see all these people insulting the Nintendo corporation because of the lack of mature content. Yet there is something about Nintendo (at least their games) that strikes a certain unadulterated feeling of joy!!! Pokemon Y - 1048-9263-5562

Well seeing as awsome is not a word, I highly doubt it. Maybe awesome x awesome = awesomeness though Smilie

Nintendo release it in Europe, please!!!!

It would make me visit an arcade for the first time in years.

Mike Gee of iZINE said, "...The Verve, as he [Richard Ashcroft] promised, had become the greatest band in the world. Most of the critics agreed with him. Most paid due homage. The Verve were no longer the question mark or the clich�. They were the statement and the definition."

Namco Bandai's tamagotchi.

The Tamagotchi isn't Namco's, it's Bandai's, but since the companies are now merged, it's not Namco's or Bandai's, it's Namco Bandai's Smilie

I wonder if this'll ever make it to Britain? & if so, will I ever see one with my own two eyes? Never played the original, which is a damn shame, I woulda loved to.

They obviously mean:

I remember reading something in NGamer magazine where if you won a race, you had to pay to continue to the next on Mario Kart Arcade GP.

Balladeer 18.02.2007#18

That is the problem with arcade games - they act as a black hole for small coins.

Screwing the rules since 1989.

hes right it does suck. the first time i played it, i really tried to give it a chance i put it's flaws down to my n00bness... but every time after i just realise its just crap.

not nearly as fun as MK Smilie D multiplayer, so unless the gameplay has improved ten-fold, the it will still only be average at best. sorry Smilie
