But arcade games are actually just casual games right?`Do arcade games actually come with a story or somethin like that? Can you give an example of a skill extensive game?

>Raw Thrills

From what I've seen this dev is pretty hit or miss. On the one hand they made this pretty cool TMNT arcade game, but on the other hand they made shit like Flappy Bird Arcade and I think they also did the Injustice arcade port which was a FUCKING PORT OF THE IOS CARD GAME, LIKE SERIOUSLY ARE YOU PEOPLE FUCKING RETARDED, IT'S AN ARCADE STYLE FIGHTER, WHY CAN'T YOU PUT THAT IN THE ARCADE YOU DUMB FUCKING PIECES OF SHIT

DEJA VU

>Does anybody know any other "arcade-exclusives"?

Yes, the Pump It Up series. No home release since Pump It Up Exceed (over 12 years ago). Its mission modes are possibly the most fun I've had in a rhythm game

>get unique alternate charts for songs not available in normal play

>charts with added objectives (e.g. max combo no higher than 25, hit all notes with certain noteskin)

>fun gimmicks (e.g. chart requires holding center step and hitting hands, mission has you spinning around all song, song has life drain, get potions to keep life gauge topped up)

>several missions are especially fun and gimmicky (e.g. Deja Vu EHNE mission, Pump Pump Revolution missions (DDR Parody) and PJMax (DJMax parody))

>things can however get unfairly hard (e.g. the infamous QH247 mission in Fiesta 1 and EX, aka NXSB (level 28, max difficulty) double chart of Final Audition Episode 2 at 130% speed)

>a few missions have bullshit gimmicks, like requiring multiple people (3 for Triple Attack in NXA), or playing a certain song from memory (Eraser missions in NXA)

>other missions often have shit objective descriptions or hidden objectives made so you have to feed credits, which sucks

Another noteworthy mention is Dragon Ball Zenkai Battle

>possibly the best modern 3D PVP DBZ game

>2v2 real-time battles

>characters have unique movesets and their own mechanics

>No vanishing spam

>no beamspam, ki generates slowly and charging uses health

>Tenkaichi and Xenoverse can't hold a candle to it

I don't know what the fuck Bamco was thinking when they decided to keep it confined to arcades in Nipland.

Anybody can recommend a good arcade in germany?

I've seen the Initial D games pop up in the strangest of places. But they also seem to show up at Anime Weekend Atlanta regularly. I know a guy who had acquired a whole box of fresh Initial D licenses and sold them to people at the con for $6 a piece, it went rather well.

>mushi king is still around in bongland

>but the beetles are replaced with dinosaurs.

>Chicago area

>La Grange

That shit is in the boonies you nigger

There's an arcade in Chinatown in NY that has an Initial D cabinet. They also have a few other arcade cabinets which are pretty cool but everything is overpriced.

Yeah raw thrills is really hit or miss. Besides having the stupidest name for an arcade company ever. Almost all their stuff is very obviously designed for places like dave & busters (i.e. casual as fuck and more spectacle then challenge). The only places left in the west for arcades that seem to have any kind of talent, are the few small pinball companies remaining. And even then the quality, talent and overall appearance of, "these people know what they're doing" is no where near what it was 20 years ago.

How is the Halo one? I've heard good things but I've not looked into it

Crusin Blast is pretty shitty but I always play a couple races when I see one. It's colorful and satisfying.

I want to at least credit feed through Fireteam Raven. It seems like generally Raw Thrills rail shooting games have health on a timer. No matter what you do you will die in about the same spot every time. Whereas it's easy to 1cc Time Crisis/House of the Dead with a little practice because you will know what to avoid.
