The only Capcom game the local aracde (which is quite large and takes up two mall store slots) is MvC2 and it's crammed in the back. Admitedly the arcade is owned by Namco but still it's sad.
Also a question regarding those crane games. I hear about Japanese people who are "good" at them getting several prizes in one go. All the ones I've played in this country (with one exception) are designed to have the claw close too late in order to vastly increase the difficulty to near impossible. That once exception was a machine that allowed you to press a button which would determine at what point the claw would close. When I was a kid I got like 10 prizes out of that one in a row. Do Japanese machines have a better claw that's not so cheap, because I can't imagine a claw machine getting any prize let alone multiple ones.

Yup, same situation for me too. Really sucks...the MvC2 machine rarely sees any use, so any decent competition is impossible to find. I've asked numerous times if the damn aracde could at least get something "new", like CvS2, at least maybe then people might play that. Damn, that sucks. I know Capcom could do better!! Guess if I want to play Capcom aracde games, I'll just stick to using my DC.

There was a rumor that Capcom was going to show a new arcade title.... and it's still possible. It could either be a surprise or a behind closed doors deal.

I'm guessing that when CFAS comes out (well, *hoping* is more like it, fingers crossed) it'll be console only. Probably PS2 exclusive as well. I'd imagine they'd want to go with minimum risk here.
There was one summer where I was kicking ass at a crane game in the States even with the shitty claw. Looking back, I probably jsut spent my luck foolishly.

CAN'T YOU PEOPLE MAKE OFFICIAL SITES WITH CLEAR INFORMATION FOR A CHANGE?

I'm really trying to be nice and not start another Flame War here, but why the shock? Capcom did say they were done with making Arcade Games. People should only be upset that certain rumors proved false and nothing more.
