Don't deny it, you know you want this in your house like I do. It's a shame that isn't not $10k or cheaper otherwise I'd really consider it.

No you couldn't, its a brand new game, if memory serves correctly asctually made by Nintendo AND Sega. (or was that Nintendo and Namco? ah google it if u care )

"It's a shame that isn't not $10k or cheaper otherwise I'd really consider it."
- give it 5 years and it will be When I had a larger house (used to be my parent's then they moved out) with a huge garage I bought loads of arcade games including Daytona 2 player, Outrun, Mortal Kombat and Metal Slug, I was amazed by how cheap they were second hand

Ah yes, well spotted! - it must be Nintendo and Namco then not Nintendo and Sega. Just noticed it says on the side too! That'll teach me to post without looking at the image properly next time Either way thats an awesome collaboration and I'd love to play it! Unfortunately the only arcades anywhere near me don't get any new machines, except fruities and dance mat style ones

I walked by an arcade a couple days ago when I was christmas shopping and noticed kids/teens were going nuts over that dance mat game. Guess I'm getting old because I don't understand how jumping on squares and looking at a screen is any fun?

Stupid future arcade idea:

Lord of the River Dance Mat

I think girls like the dance mat style games as they have a calorie counter to tell you how much weight you've lost

They are strangely addictive once you get doing them, I know cos my wife made me buy her one

I am however a little concerned that both screens have the same image on them. I found a bug! :-P

lol I guess either those images were put on afterwards, or whoever set that up forgot to link the two single player units together. If they were linked then the display should be spread accross the two screens, or at least showing a different character in each

Well.. some people might not see how knocking around a plastic stick to move a little pixilated yellow guy around on a screen is any fun either...

I really like those "dance mat" games...

but like the kangaroo said, you have to "get doing them" before they become any fun (I.E. the first 3 to 7 times you play it you just make a fool of yourself and hate it)

Not if you play in the safety of your dark basement in the middle of the night.
