Tekken 6 Arcade

Got my hands on it!

The arcade.

Just got my hands on this next generation fighting games on Penang last week. I got to say the graphics is superior. This is actually the 1st few times I'm drooling at the graphics. Obviously, the gameplay changed a little but still all the basis are still there. I'm not Tekken Pro, so I can't say there's much changes for me. I didn't not take many pictures, I was enjoying playing it. Haha.

The Data Card.

Just like the Tekken 5: DR, you get to purchase card from the arcade center's counter and plug the card into the machine and choose to use data card on character select menu. Just to notice, you can only choose 1 character for a card. Not sure about changing the name in the future though. I say that's all for now. Thanks for reading and see you.

Mario Kart Arcade GP

It's Mario Kart on Arcade!

MKAGP.

I was told by my net friends on the forum about Sunway Pyramid having a Mario Kart Arcade. I have been eagerly wanted to play this game and finally I get my hands on it! Honestly said, it's very easy to play but the item provided are sometime deadly and the items are slightly different from what we had played on the home version. Mostly it's because Namco is in part of this game too.

It's a camera!

Taking snapshot of your face before you race!

I might say the game play is kind of cute and this game may on attract girls along with guys. Mostly, they are just casual gamers. You know how Malaysian look at Nintendo. Childish game. (^_^;) As for me, I enjoy the game a lot and I even spent lots of cash on the machine!

4 Player Game are the best!

You may ask this. How do I throw weapon and how do I drift? Well... those thing can be done easily. To throw item, just press the button at the middle of the wheel. Good thing is so item will auto-aim for you. While for drifting, it took me a while to figure out... Until I called my friend and ask how to drift. This might take a little practice, to drift, tap your brake and left go and your kart will go jump and you steer your wheel to drift.

The Mario Card.

The data card is also known as Mario Card can be purchased through the machine itself. Just insert a credit and choose "No card Used" and 1st selection and insert tokens as were told on the machine you are playing and you choose your kart and your name. That way, you purchase yourself a Mario Card! At the end of the game, your card will be ejected and keep it for next game.

I like watching girls playing. Some of them are cute.

A great discovery, at least for me. This is a great arcade but too bad not many people see it that way. I assumed most people actually enjoy Wangan Midnight: Maximum Tune 3 (also made by Namco) as it provide more serious gaming. But personally, I like MKAGP a lot. Thanks for reading and see you!

Back From KL

Getting Sick of Planes.

Reached KL liao...

I was away for about an week for I'm at Sunway for the last week and unable to go online. I was assigned to go The One Academy to take an English Replacement Test and registration and also to meet the landlord's house which I'm going to stay in the next few years.

Sunway City.

But those are only assigned on the last day. Nothing much haul at Sunway, more like wasting money on arcades and food. I attended a LYN DS Gathering and it was consider the 2nd least attendance of all time. LOL. After that we haven't got enough of Mario Kart and went for Mario Kart Arcade GP! I end up spent alot on the machine!

Nu..... 2nd! (;_;)

A great discovery to waste my money!

Last day in KL after dealing with all those stuff I was assigned to, went to Starbucks to have a drink and I ordered a Chocolate Cream. It was so badly blended that I can make the drink out of something like this. It's all ice in it. Meh.

(._.)

Soon, I will be going to KL and no more home sweet home! I'm going enjoy my room to the fullest until I get sick of it. Will I? Anyway, I will be going down to Penang this Sunday. So, as you can see... I'm really sick of planes and such.

Home Sweet Home.

p/s: Please don't stab me from behind. I'm no otaku!

That's all for now. All those individual event and new stuff I discovered will be post in a few days. Thanks for reading and see you!

Short Stay in KL

Shopping Spree...

I can go to KL plz?

After keeping asking my parents to let me to go KL (for like 5 times), they finally let me go! Under one condition, with some companions. Which I brought 2 of my younger cousins, but crap do we need to walk all day since we get lost a little sometime. Haha.

Taken outside Tune Hotel.

What's my main reason to go KL? Shop for model kits, while one of my cousin was shopping for his Chinese New Year clothes and another one is just for entertainment, such as arcade, gashapons and souvenirs.

Boy, do we ever had so much problem going to the Tune Hotel. It's a new hotel where many many people do not know it's existance yet. Tune Hotel is by Air Asia, yes you heard me right, by Air Asia. Not to say the obviousity, red and white painted hotel and toilet's accessories are need to pay seperately and also there's credit for aircondition. Nonetheless, the room still have fan and it's cheap.

The only arcade I spend in KL.


Lucky Star @ Taiko no Tatsujin 10 from SWATwolf on Vimeo.

Our 1st destination was Mid Valley. Mainly because I wanted to meet up with Doomsday for a Transformer, Jason for the R4 and hang out and to play Taiko no Tatsujin 10 in Jusco. The Taiko 10 is totally sweet! With over 100 songs and updated anime songs from Lucky Star, Haruhi, Naruto, Gintama and such. For Wangan Midnight: Maximum Tune 3 (WMMT3)? It's way better than Initial D Arcade Stage 4. With 4 player battle and top notch and loud song, nothing can beat this game! Hopefully soon enough they will bring in WMMT3 to Kuching.

Mine!!!

The path are so small I can't even walk properly.

Next, we went to Time Square and as for me SD Gundam Hunting Time! As usual the stock of the gundams in KL are enormous. But nonetheless, I bought quite some back with me. Not to mention help Darklancer to find some old musha gundams. Okay, it's almost 10pm and most of the shop were closing. Can't miss the last train or we'll be doomed!

Our dinner for the LULz.

In Tune Hotel, there's a sandwich restaurant called Subway. As I always thought those restaurants are always 24 hours and did I not know they closed at 10.30pm. We were exhausted and planned to only come down for dinner on 11pm. It's closed! We were forced to go to the 7-Eleven and buy some cup noodles.

---

The next day, I woke up early to sit on LRT and Putra train to meet on of my interent friend named Kho who helped me to buy some SD gundams way before I came to KL. Thanks alot buddy! After that we gone to Sogo, a shopping mall that's closed to our hotel, we played some arcade and have lunch there. Then, we gone back to hotel for some rest and off we go back to Butterworth.

ZOMG, Gunplaman!

Guess what are those model sleeping inside the bag and plastic bag? I'll list them out on the next post. Haha. I guess that the end of the journey for this post. Thanks for reading and see you guys back in Kuching on the 29th January!

I got my "Driving License"!

RM18 is your gateway to be a DK!

Woohoo, boy am I happy again to see Kuching's arcade is kicking alive again! Well... actually, the arcade is somehow been taken over by some Penang arcade or the Sunway Pyramid which are under same company and also which I cant recall. Why? Well... the token changed, 1 side with dragon and another side with C.Y.C wording. 1 token is sold for RM1 each. Heck! I'm going back to Penang to change 2 tokens for RM1! If I'm going back... Following pictures taken by my dearest VGA phone camera.

Half covered notice.

Today, as usual, I went to school, sitting in the open lab and do some surfing. Until... one of my friend came in and told me Hock Lee Center's arcade have Initial D Arcade Stage 4 (ID4) and House of the Dead 4 (HOD4)! I was shocked, and I keep asking my friend did he see thing wrongly. After some confirmation, I rush to the shopping mall! I know this is kind of old news to West Malaysian already. Well... I finished HOD4 in KL last year, so that game wont bother me much anymore. It's ID 4 I'm talking about!

The machine!

Customizing car.

I would like to say that ID4 is so much easier compare to ID3. Due to the new system and new way of driving, the drifting part had become more sensitive compare to ID3. The steering is more like the Akina Snow in ID3. I got used to the controlling just after I played around 3 to 4 rounds. The graphic is astonishing, definitely a high end arcade and not to mention, wide screen. For the crashing sound, it's quite annoying but should get used to it in a few rounds later. The music, still the same, sometime I can hardly hear the music and this time there's no song choosing, or I cant find the song selection. Lastly, customization, Sega is really clever this time, customize your avatar randomly which today I get to rotate once and I get a fugly down slope eye and I didn't update my avatar. The car customization is roughly the same as the old ID3 but this time you which to upgrade 1st and each part have their own level.

Match with my friend.

Overall, I'm very happy. And tomorrow I will be still heading down to the arcade center to blast even more challenging stages. Today, I pass all 1st 3 course with a breeze. Haha, must be gotten used to it already. Till then, thanks for reading. See ya.
