Well, QBM PG is still running Exp v1. I don't think they are going to upgrade anytime this year, or at all.

Why can't I find the V5 cabs in Times Sq? I went to the arcade place and saw just the V3 ones, the apek there say the new ones haven't arrived... or maybe I went to the wrong place? dry.gif

You probably haven't gone next door. Lol. There are two arcades next to each other in TS. The one you went to is probably the small one, which doesn't have the cabs. Heck, I've never even stepped into that one ever since it opened. laugh.gif

Try again the next time you come here. Go next door!

KL
Berjaya Times Square's Cobay 2 [2.0]
Leisure Mall's Fireworks 2 [2.0]
Wangsa Walk's Cobay 2

Selangor
Sunway Pyramid's CYC Mega Leisure 6
Mid Valley's Holiday Planet 2
IOI Mall's Holiday Planet 2
The Summit's Cobay 2
The Mines's Cobay 2

how about other states?

Queensbay Mall's CYC Mega Leisure?
Gurney Plaza?
Sunway Karnival?
Kulim Landmark Central's CYC Mega Leisure?

One Utama shopping complex (Selangor) has a Cobay arcade that has 2 as well, though they're not 2.0 like the TS ones.

That arcade does provide games for kids as well. After all, arcade's meant for fun, regardless of age.

There's a merry go round machine that was just brought in today. Lol.

If only they are ID cars, instead of horses and carriages... Hmm... :3

I go to BTS Cobay arcade everyweek (and once today) and I didn't notice the new merry go round.....hmmmmm I should pay more attention.

I did notice the new Taito Elevator themed lightgun game not far from one of the IDA5 and Daytona machines though, which has been for around 8 days or so.

Oh if you don't usually lurk at the DDR (or something like that) games area, you won't have noticed it. It's pretty small and dull in appearance, near the 'balcony' facing the rollercoaster area. Try looking for it. I myself never noticed it until a friend mentioned about it today.

Oh I see what area your referring to. Yeah, I rarely hang around that part of the arcade, since I usually play Daytona and IDA which is more to the center.

----------

Regarding, the V2.0 issue I may have only started IDA only recently but I see what the issue is about. I wish the One Utama arcade would have upgraded theirs as well since that one is near where I live (and where I practice more often). I wonder if its really that expensive?

The doubly fast upgrade cycle is nice and the avatars too.

the chance is slim as:
1. they dont even bother to fix the machine, left machine's steering alignment is weird, plus gear box for both machines are not working properly.
2. D6AA will be release soon, why bother to upgrade?

Don't be to happy about IDAS6AA I doubt that here in North region of Malaysia there would only be 2 cab or none, if it were to buy the new cab it would probably be at Gurney or Queen's Bay Mall. Why I say this... cause you could see that they the CYC do not even care to bought the exp 2.0 cab... from what I know the exp 2.0 cab at KL is bought not upgrade... Here what will happen if IDAS6AA came to Malaysia or rather KL, the IDAS5 Exp 2.0 will be replace by it and will be transfer to the north region, so we here at Penang & Kedah will get the IDAS5 Exp 2.0 that is my assumption....

Interesting.......you have to buy the Ver 2.0 anew???

Ouch, now I an understand the reluctance.......I just with Ver 1.0 upgrade was much faster with the tuning. Oh well, I needed to sharpen my skills greatly anyway since I'm new ID player.

But the feeling of upgrading fast at BTS sure is good. happy.gif

The 2 EXP 2.0's in Malaysia is actually because the arcades bought new machines, and EXP 2.0 came with it. I don't think they make EXP1.0s anymore.

I guess I see. So they're just new machines huh rather than an upgrade kit. I'm guessing they just move the older 1.0 machines somewhere.

Good for BTS business I guess that they have it.

Wow, its been so long since I posted anything here, and I post very little actually.. laugh.gif

Well, I think the main reason why many arcades did not go for the 2.0 upgrade is because of mainstream players. Just think, lets say you don't know heck about ID5, would you see the diff between 1.0 and 2.0? I don't think so. Yet the arcade has to shell out (from what I heard) a few grand on the upgrade. And yet, most people see it as the same old machine!

ID6AA, on the other hand, its brand new. With the big 6 on it instead of 5, everyone sees it as new. So its most likely that the arcades that has cash will get those quick. Like sunway for example.

Btw, I'm really dissappointed with the CYC arcade at Sunway Carnival Mall in Penang though.. I went there not long after the complex just opened a few years back, and when I saw the arcade it had FOUR cabs of shining new IDAS4. I was like, wow! You don't see many arcades with more than 2 cabs of ID4/5.

Now? Only 1 functional IDAS5 v1 cab? Why CYC? sad.gif

Cause back in the day of IDAS4 a lot of ppl play it. Now there r very few who still play... That the reason they don't even care to repair it. If the cab is repair it can't play In store battle since the little black box is also broken... Now if you come to Penang the place to play is either Queen's Bay mall or Gurney Plaza...
