I’d go here all the time if this came to fruition. I’ll keep an eye out on this thread, and head out when it comes to be.
Hey ppl as you may have heard suppisibly Oni gets unlocked April 8 so if anybody that is going to Round1 on Friday keep us updated if they actually did unlock him already
Thanks
quoted for truth
lol I dont think so
round 1 is slowly becoming the ideal arcade. with arcade infinity gone and super arcade never fix’s their controls. Other than the usual people at video 94, round 1 is the place to be to get your competitive gaming on.
just put 3S in a cab already.
i dont care if fierce doesnt work and theres burn in.
i play at super for christs sake
Is Oni Available now?
oni is available
thnks u there?
Fuck, I’m sorry.
Suiken!! The first unlock code for DDRX2 has been released (DanceDanceRevolution X2 - Arcade Unlock Code 1 | Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc.), but Round1’s DDRX2 I/O is still broken so there’s no way to unlock the new songs!
Please try to get this resolved soon. It’s been broken for exactly two months now…
edit: also, this: http://www.bemanistyle.com/forum/736128-post423.html
I’ve also seen a ton of casual players try to play DDRX2 and quit after only a song or two because the arrows scroll in strange ways that they can’t understand (because the speed mods are in flux for the first 1-3 measures of the arrows)
Are all he Bemani machines really in that bad of condition? If they are, is there anywhere else to play or another arcade kinda near-ish?
I’m mainly going next month for Technika and AE but my friend going with me is going to want to be all over that XG and X2, that’s what seems to be what’s in worst condition from what I’ve been reading.
I’ve been told Round1 has finally gotten Konami’s attention with DDRX2 and it will be fixed, I don’t know when, but I’m dying to play those unlocks (and not have to plan my first 10 steps to every song very well). DDRX2 is playable, if you plan your first steps to result in a good final speedmod, but the new X2 Betson sensors are pretty cheap andother arcades have found they pretty much only last a month.
It’s not really a secret, but there are two other DDRX2’s in SoCal: one at Power House in Long Beach (it’s AI’s machine, on the Betson lease program I think so iunno if it’s still there), and one at the Ontario Gameworks. I hear the volume at the Gameworks is ridiculously low though.
As for XG, GuitarFreaks is perfect right now, Drummania’s SFX is too loud and BGM too soft though. Both games are very playable.
The only other BEMANI machine is DDR SuperNOVA2, I’ve personally never taken a liking to those pads (I’ve always thought AI’s were better) but many people think they’re fine.
(pop’n redemption doesn’t count but it’s fine too)
that DDR X2 machine is unplayable. So disappointing.
XG was really cool.
The supernova 2 machine’s UP arrow on the p1 side is not working too well.
I miss AI.
Oh and has anyone else had a problem with people walking IN FRONT of you while playing DDR/PIU? So many stupid people there walking around not even playing games.
Does anyone by any chance know if there’s a Jubeat in SoCal?
haha are you my clone or something? could you maybe even look like me lol
edit: it’s even worse when they walk over the DDRX2 pads, because they fuck up your song choice / mod choice / etc… This has happened to me twice over the past 2 months now, I wanted to run after those punks(girls) and make him put 12 credits back into the machine but by the time I realized they fucked up my game it was too late, lost them in the crowd. (both times this happened to me when I was playing Doubles. Round1 please turn Joint Doubles (not Joint Premium) on kthx.)
What exactly is wrong with the X2 machine? I keep on seeing people talk about some wiring issue or something but it doesn’t make sense.

Yeah that’s the problem, it doesn’t make sense to the techs and so it’s going to stay broken for a while
round 1 tonight
Dear Mike / Ted / anyone else with authority:
Pump It Up Fiesta EX and the [media=youtube]1Z3wGRKCfsQ"[/media], but Andamiro’s new pads are NOT.
This is not playable: [media=youtube]OxXbsFM0btA[/media]
I’m standing on 4 arrows, I expect to see 4 arrows trigger.
Please, for the love of God, (and to make sure that people start playing Pump games other than Pump It Up PRO 2, which is the only Pump machine at Round1 with good pads), please foam mod the shit out of those stiff pads. From what I’ve read and heard, it’s probably not a sensor problem but a panel problem with Fiesta 2010 and Fiesta EX 2011’s pads - foam mods have worked everywhere else with Andamiro’s new crappy pads, where arcades have let them happen.
Thanks.
