Other arcades : we don’t have fan My arcade: we have fans to keep body odour away

I will never understand why these companies don’t internationally release these games, or why they don’t release them in America at least.

iidx better

I do go to the arcade more often in recent times but I have only grinded a few songs ao far (I'm around 10k) only when I feel like it. I've seen quite a few people grind out songs and I'm happy for them when they reached the desired goal. I know I'll grow out of this eventually but I think living the moment is also important.

I tried playing only lazer for around two months but eventually returned to stable because it just feels so much better... in Lazer I have a screen tearing problem that I can't solve no matter what and the mouse feels slighly sluggish(yes, I use fullscreen) compared to stable which is weird cuz I know that theoretically lazer should have lower latency and everything, but in practice it just isn't the case unfortunately also, with stable I can screenshare my game to my friends with literally zero performance hit... lazer becomes unplayable once I start streaming it even tho the fps stays stable at 1000

W didn’t deserve the ban though

osu laza and quava 😂😂😂😂😂 oi mate a bo o wa a

1:32 the lack of hold release timings would trip me out so much (◔ д◔)

Thank you very much for this video. I really liked the bittersweet ending. I only discovered maimai a few months ago because I'm in China and people aren't very social here. In the end even with my little experience I tell myself the same thing: what's the point? I only grind and have no friends. but i'm having fun like I've never had so much fun on a game. So in the end i think that's the most important thing for me.

appreciate the ddlc music :D

I'm kinda glad that there aren't very many ""hardcore"" arcade rhythm gamers in my area, means that most of the time I don't need to be worried about queues to the rhythm game cabs and can play pretty much til I want to take a break and rest or play something else. Even on days the arcade is full this applies to an extent due to most visitors not being rhythm gamers. They might try any of the rhythm games (especially maimai and Dancerush are the big draws for many people, particularly kids), but even then the cabs are generally available. And besides, I primarily play 3 rhythm games at the arcade, so I have options for when one is occupied. In fact, that arcade has like 9 different rhythm game titles, though only like 6 I actually play, so even on the off-chance all 3 of my main rhythm games would be occupied I still have options. I love seeing kids be absolutely flabbergasted by my playing 🤣

😂😂😂

I see this interesting, I knew about Osu some time ago, but left because I didn't knew about the accounts, in my case I only cared about mania, which I didn't knew where to put, didn't knew where to download songs, and when playing regular osu thought the only way to click a circle was clicking the mouse, which I found very difficult, it wasn't until 2022 I finally took more time to learn the game

bro didnt even mention parappa or rhythm heaven

The problem about osu!lazer for me is... it's lag. I use older laptop, and I can't even play osu!lazer without my fps being cooked into oblivion with only get 10-15fps.

Ahhh... My rhythmical soul is happy...

People are just losing their creativity really

Im happy that I have a friend group community at my local arcade. Its to the point id rather queue with them around than hogging a cab alone. Even though the wait time is 30~45 minutes, its fun hanging around them in a secluded rhyhtm game isle. We have chairs to sit around or if it gets too crowded, we just sit on the floor cheering our friends playing on the cabs. Some of us brings stuff like toys and fumos to show to each other and talk about other hobbies during wait time. Some of us (mostly me) even do assignments on our laptops or tablets. Or we doomscroll and share brainrot memes. Even though the actual queue time is long, but no one is on a rush to play. It feels like we have our own cabs for ourselves. Most of us isnt even highskilled player, so its pretty humbling. Even though theres some gap in skill level between us, we still supports and help everyone through their journey. Even though I got stuck and choke on scores that I want to achieve, it doesnt really matter when I am around my friends. The down side is that, other people get really intimidated to play lul.

"Because the game only goes so far" last two minutes hits hard

nice 幸せになれる隠しコマンドがあるらしい reference ww

This content is pure gold

what's the song at 9:42 i remember hearing it somewhere before so well

Watching this even tho my nearest arcade is like 20 minutes away from here 💀💀💀

2:52 I play Friday Night Funkin and I'm 21! My little brother (18) showed it to me back when it released and we compete to see who can get the best score on the hardest mods.

thank god i live on an island nation that doesnt even get thought about by rhythm game company's

Waiting to play an arcade game in 2024 is definitely a degenerate thing to do. Like, there are so many other rhythm games that won't steal your time and money

i found my self in chunithm one day and since then I can't escape

Hey there, I notice that you punched the cab at 3:15. Please do not do this, it is expensive to replace a maimai monitor, and no one else will be able to play on it if it's broken. Don't be a bogan, cheers mate.

hey how do you think about BMS?

I saw the thumbnail with "-$727" and you know exactly what I was thinking 727!!! WYSI!! WYFSI!! I can't fluffing take it. I see an image of a random score posted and then I see it, I fluffing see it. "Oh that looks kinda like the Blue Zenith 727 score" it started as. That's funny, that's a cool reference. But I kept going, I'd see a clock with time that showed 7:27, I'd see that I'm on the 7/27 page on my school homework, my last notice to pay my electricity bill is 727$ , I'd notice that it's been 727 days since the last time I touched a woman. And every time I'd burst into an insane, breath deprived laugh staring at the image as the number 727 ran through my head. I'm scared to look at the time when someone asks me what time is it. It's torment, psychological torture, I am being conditioned to laugh maniacally any time I see a 3-digit number which is anywhere close to 727. I can't fluffing live like this... I can't I can't I can't I can't I can't! And don't get me fluffing started on the words! I'll never hear the phrase "when you see it" again without thinking of 727. Someone does pretty cool and respectable score and I can't say anything other than "WYSI." I could watch a man FC hard underweighted map I love and all I would be able to say is "WYSI" and laugh like a fluffing insane person. And the phrase "when you see it" is ruined. I can't live anymore. 727 has destroyed my fluffing life. I want to eject myself from this plane of existence.

Queue times were why I never got into maimai, and why I have three mains-if one's busy I can just swap to another. When you went over how you feel like you have to keep going, I started to think about how the makers of these arcade games like Konami make pachinko machines, and the way I always had this disdain for redemption games, thinking that rhythm games were a lot more worthwhile-I still think that, but I'm now reckoning with how, at the end of the day, all types of arcade games are designed to encourage you to keep putting in that money. It's just that for rhythm games, because it doesn't really matter how well you perform, making the game compelling to play comes from making it fun. Maybe I'm not so different from those kids with balls of tickets... I know that one day I'm gonna stop playing these games and going to arcades. But I haven't hit my ceiling yet in the games I main, and I'm intent on getting as far as I can before that happens-I want to look back on it and think "fuck yeah, I made it to Rainbow in Chuni, or Imperial in SDVX, or ADV 10 in Pump". I have a talent for this, and I need to see how far I can really take it if I wanna truly walk away from it happy.

4:51 Sound Voltex players who aren't Near/Noah fans:

The most i spent is 200eur for a quest 2 (for beatsaber)

Funny that I watch these videos, yet as an American I'm unable to play DX (we only have FiNALE) so 90+% of the information is irrelevant

So, I'm a British maimai player who plays on Finale since April 2023. Over the past year and half, it's been a joy to see me improve from nothing to now regularly S-ing 12s and see a community build up from the machine though I've made a few closer friendships in that community. I remember back in May 2024 when one of those closer friends went on holiday to Asia for a month and over that month, the game didn't feel the same. It made me realise that while progress was a catalyst for me to play, the glue was really the friends that I made along the way.

❤

absolute production

I don’t think I’ve ever resonated with a RUclips video as much as this one. Excellent work!

I guess right now I’m still in that stage of progressing in Chunithm, and I haven’t reached a “peak” yet. We do have a local chumai community, and it’s great being in it where we can talk about not only just scores or songs. And so right now, I’m just looking forward to increasing my rating and collecting more things… …as well as looking to meet someone up at the arcade after our exams. Good luck to me.

"If you wanna play maimai, just buy your own DX cabinet" Where you pay only $40K, AND YOU CAN KEEP IT BY THE WAY (seriously though this video was amazing, that ending is so real and relatable)

Apply this to any IRL thing that you would do with your leisure time with the same amount of the time you pour onto maimai or games in general, you will be stuck with all these thought as well, that's when you have think about if THAT thing (be it IRL or non-IRL stuff) is making you had fun or not.

300 maimai play counts resulted in 50 lbs of bodyweight loss Isn't this convincing enough?

Fun fact: the kr community calls 1k play count as 'trash', as in 'I am literal human trash for spending a thousand coins on this game'. 2k play count makes you '2 trash', and so on Hi, so I am 5 trash. In my ted talk I will

i think i am a bit too much of an adict for rhythm games, you can tell because I am one of the 3 people to recreate the 4 gamemodes of osu on scratch, i said 3 because there is no fucking way someones gonna make CTB... right? wait, what? peppy what are you doing? NO PEPPY, NO! GET OUT OF MY HEAD TAIKO TOOK 3 FUCKING YEARS I AM NOT READY FOR THIS.

I see tons of people what grow in a community that are very good at the game and pretty much if you aren't good you can't really talk to them, it's like a social gap? Idk. I play this game twice a week and tbh I'm not even sure if trying to get better at it would help me (cause I was super try hard at osu for a while and that didn't really feel the greatest) If the hobby is such say 'a hobby' you should try to find the fun in it, as trying harder to get better at it just kills the fun, like education and stuff is the same as well. To anyone who stumbles upon this I mean no hate or harm, just writing down how I feel and hope to make someone's day better

this was an interesting exurb1a video

wow. this video spoke to me so much 😭 ive been playing maimai competitively since 2017, and i've hit some lows in my life recently that gave me a reality check of how addicted i was at the game. Along with the frustration of being stuck at my current skill level, I slowly lost interest. I resonate so much with this video, especially since letting go of grinding tf out of the game was such a bittersweet feeling for me. Slowly came into terms w it though. I'm happy with how much I achieved, and I can still play casually and hang out w the friends I made, maybe help them get FDX plates and such. Thank you for this video ❤, made me tear up a bit. The game is such a huge part of my life and I'll never forget the years I grinded it
