Perhaps a tax scam to write off losses against profits that they know will not happen. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 And why are they posting a video of the system from almost 3 months ago if indeed that is what it is? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're recycling something they've used before to cover up for the fact that they've nothing new to show. I can safely say it's deliberate, because it's not the first time they've done this. I doubt it'll be the last either. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it was only delayed outside Japan, so nothing has changed unfortunately. The Japanese model is available in Japan since March 19th, the announced release date. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TankedThomas Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Good for a laugh. As for that video Atari uploaded, it's the exact same one from January (as @Flojomojo already pointed out, I see). Not just the video content, but the whole video listing. How the date is different, I'm not entirely sure (probably can be screwed with in the settings, though I've never seen fit to try). Even my down-vote from January is still there (again, like Flo's - I wrote all of this before I saw his comment hiding between the others, dammit). Trust me, I'd love to click it again, but then it'd just give them one less. It's definitely the same video. 6 hours ago, Phill.T said: Is that just a plastic case with a hdmi extension cable going through it? Hard to tell, but they had two "working" units at D-Cave so... I guess it's a real, working unit. Doesn't really tell us much of anything. Even if it worked perfectly, it'd still be crap, and they're still just running Windows 10. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are not bankrupt after the quarantine, I will try and make a visit! Haven't been to a decent arcade in many moons. Yes sir! In some good news, we are open today - the mall is allowing us to open if we want. I keep everything disinfected, have a UV-C germ killing air purifier and we have copper/zinc tokens (which scientifically kill viruses). So, we'll see how it goes, although most of the mall is keeping shut down (much of the food court, bunch of shops, the movie theater). Would be happy to have you drop by, where you can try out the Stranger Things premium pinball machine that we got the day before the earthquake.
