This game is currently situated inside of our EXA ARC-1 game cabinet. We changed the screen orientation back to horizontal, and have also put Jitsu Squad Feat. The Samurai Pizza Cats into the same machine. We still have DoDonPachi True Death EXA Label, we’ve just moved it over to the 4K EXA cab with the giant screen. This game is 3 tokens to play, as it is a modern game with high-end graphics (likely the best graphics out of all the games we currently have).

For those who are curious about what is different or better about this particular version of the game, here’s a quick list:

• 3 Frame input lag response – The fastest, most responsive version of the game in existence!
• Improved graphics with full AA, 60 FPS, and faster load times
• Real arcade controls
• New voices and artwork, the latter produced by TEKKEN artist Junny
• Another Arcade Galactic exclusive, as no one else in Utah has this game!

Besides all that, playing these types of games is always better in the arcade, with your opponent right at your side, instead of against some anon online where network lag reduces the enjoyment of such games.

Omen of Sorrow: For the hardcore players

If you are a part of the “Fighting Game Community” (FGC), then Omen of Sorrow has been designed to reward you. The game comes with a resource game mechanic that rewards offensive and defensive play, or punishes poor players. There is also the unusual inclusion of a Training mode – our only fighter in the arcade with such a mode – that allows you to really test the characters out and get a feel for their movesets and mechanics.

Per the exA website: “Besides the usual special, EX and super moves, players are rewarded for aggressive play by gaining resources to be able to cancel any move into a special move to create devastating combos or activate Blessed mode to have access to this cancel ability for a limited amount of time. While players can escape from the opponent’s oppressive offense by using guard canceling counters, tech recoveries and escapes, they are punished for overly defensive play causing them to fall into a Doomed state which limits their available move set and prevents them from guarding consecutive attacks. Utilize the in-depth Training mode to find the ultimate combo & practice how to escape situations!“

If we find interest, then we will be happy to host some tournaments for this game in the near future. Come in to give this game a play, and bring a friend or two!

The post NEW GAME ARRIVAL: Omen of Sorrow: Arising Chaos (exA-Arcadia) appeared first on Arcade Galactic - Video Arcade & Pinball Gaming at Valley Fair Mall in West Valley City, Utah.

As mentioned in recent days, we have made some adjustments to the layout of the arcade, putting SpaceWarp 66 back near the front and swapping that space with one of our exA-Arcadia cabinets. Speaking of that, we recently added a brand new game in the form of JITSU SQUAD FEATURING THE SAMURAI PIZZA CATS. This is an exclusive redesign of the existing Jistu Squad console game not only plays quite differently (much more action-packed and faster paced), it also has exclusive content as mentioned in the title with The Samurai Pizza Cats. We are the ONLY arcade in Utah with this game (and all of the other exA games )

Also as a quick note – we are working hard to get some games working which have been broken for a while now. In that effort, we’ve pulled Bubble Bobble 3 from the floor but replaced that with Metal Slug 6 – now working like it should! We’ll get BB3 back out once we can repair the CRT monitor (same thing with Toobin’).

We also are hoping to bring air hockey back to the arcade at some point during the summer, although there are no details to pass along on that quite yet as we haven’t decided which machine we will go with at the moment…but stay tuned!

That includes the entire Valley Fair Mall and us, so yes, we are CLOSED for Easter. We’ll be open back up on Monday however, so if you need to get a fun fix in, don’t be worried!

We also have recently added a new game to the mix by the name of JITSU SQUAD FEAT. SAMURAI PIZZA CATS. This is a brand new beat ’em up from exA-Arcadia, with fantastic graphics and lots of brawling mayhem. Think of the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (which we also have) but on steroids. We’ll have more details on this game up soon.

Then you might enjoy Donut Dodo Do!

Originally created for PC & consoles, Donut Dodo captures the look and feel of an arcade game produced in 1983. The objective is to control Chef Billy to collect all of the donuts on the level, while avoiding enemies like rats, fireballs, and…toilets. Once you collect all of the small donuts, you can grab the giant donut – being protected by the Dodo Bird – to move on to the next level.

Donut Dodo Do! is a new arcade version that keeps the gameplay intact, while adding some exclusive features! These include a unique stage, in-game side art created by Makoto Yabe, and the addition of a two-player co-op mode where you can play as Billy’s wife Bella and grab those donuts together.

This fun and retro-style game is ONLY found in Utah at Arcade Galactic – in fact, we’re the first location in the entire USA to grab it! Find it on our exA-Arcadia cabinet right next to the Neo Geo MVS, where it’s playable in glorious 4K resolution.
