Today was both good and bad.

Bad - One of the arcades near me got rid of the 1 and only Capcom fighting machine (MvC2) =( Now it's all racers, shooters, and Namco fighters (and 1 DDR)...

Good - The aracde in the movie theater right near the above mentioned arcade got a dedicated Metal Slug 5 MVS machine! =) And they kept the old 4-game MVS machine too! (Now featuring Puzzle Bobble 2, Fatal Fury 2, Metal Slug 3, and the baseball game <sorry, forgot name!>)

What an emotional ride today has been!

Edit: Mystic River was real good - go see it!

At least it's not one of those weak arcades that's strictly racing games, sports games/ fishing games, and shooting games (and even then they're only hunting or target practice games). You know, a "non-violent family funplex" or something.

I'm amazed at the differences from one arcade to the next. F'r instance, the other day I was visiting the arcade where XMvSF cabinets go to die [they have six of them for some reason] and discovered they also had a Project Justice game up and running. I didn't even know they had made an English arcade version of that game.
