Topic: XIII Cabinet locations

[bzerk]

"King of Fighters XIII is officially up and running at the Galloping Ghost Arcade! Its in a Dynamo cabinet, with a 27" Asus monitor, and brand new Sanwa joysticks and buttons! "

I'll post pics next time I go.  I won the marvel 3 tournament there this weekend and part of the prize was a pass to go back.  If you live near chicago and haven't been to GGA you are missing out.  They have 100+ games and tons of cabs for the latest games.  You pay 15 bucks to get in but everything is on freeplay, and they are open until 2AM EVERY DAY.

yo syxx is that serious for real?  Is it up and running already?

[syxx]

according to them, yes.

Canada is getting more XIII love now at Lovegety in Mississauga, ON.

if someone is coming to shenzhen, i suggest him to go to the arcade in nanshan...kof13 on a big screen is something to be seen:

isnt there more lag on a big ass screen like that.

actually there wasnt any different from that setup and the normal lcd cabinet. Now they put ssf4ae in there, so 13 is hosted in two linked Taito LCD...unfortunately now one of the sticks is really too loosy, everytime a go there it just doesnt feel right ... anyway now 13 players seems to have moved to ssf4ae so i think they were just playing 13 cause of the bigscreen appeal (if u where there to play lots of ppl were just starring at the graphics)...this in both the arcades (well in the first one ,KKmall, there werent player before, now it`s the same lol).

For those of us in the midwest. Just got back  from  gga in brookfield, IL    played 13 for about two hours. It everything the rest of the forums have said which is amazing.   Confirmed ver 1.1   the set up and buttons are really nice. Button  Layout is preset to 2x2.

really interresting, not soo good if you only plan on playing 2 or 3 games before going elsewhere. but fucking interresting if you planned on going to a cade and just playing till you had your fill. in that case, this is the shit.

If you went to GGA where the hell else would you want to go? XD  If you get bored there's 100 other games there that you can play.  15 dollars is cheap considering it's Chicago.  There's a chinese place next door also and the guys that run the arcade are pretty cool and let you bring your food in.

Really?!  It'd seemed like Lovegety was reluctant to get on any fighters that weren't easy money like SSF4AE.  Time to start going there again, I guess.  Any confirmation if it's ver 1.1 (or is there an easy way to check)?

EDIT: Confirmed that Lovegety has an english XIII machine.  Address & phone number:

505 Highway 7
Thornhill, ON L3T 7P6

I'll try actually playing on it tomorrow (or wednesday at worst) to check the version.  Figure I can just try to do an HD bypass roll cancel to see if it's 1.1 or not.

Good to hear KOF XIII is getting some Canadian love, and if you want to find out what version it is, the easiest way is to look at the title screen and you should see a big V1.1 at the bottom right corner. You don't even have to put a coin in.

Thanks for the tip, though something tells me I'll want to put a few coins in it anyway

I'd imagine you guys waited so long it's almost like..."oh, it's out" and it doesn't really sink in till later.

Alright, got to play on the machine at Lovegety today.  Unfortunately, I couldn't do the title screen trick (or I should say fortunately, I guess, since it's because there were other people playing! *laughs* ), but unless I'm just too awful to HD roll cancel, it is version 1.1.  Yay!  Time to start a regional thread...
