Spent all my years at highschool going to my local arcade Yifans and going hard on DDR, third strike, and time crisis. They even had initial D machines, but they were expensive and we couldn't read japanese.
Sometimes we'd pull small crowds with our DDR, or have mini-tournaments with a few asians who played third strike at our level. Wasn't that great at Time Crisis and the lightguns were always a bit off but it was still the time of my life.
A little while after graduating my mate and I showed up and half the machines were missing. We thought they were remodeling or bringing in new machines, but next week the doors were bolted. We asked around and found a guy trying to buy a few of the cabinets, but the owners were refusing to sell unless they bought all the cabinets at once. Then the owners fucked off overseas.
Searched my city for another arcade but all we could find were places full of mobile game cabinets. Did a google search around my country and found out the Yifans was the last of it's kind.

I'd do anything to go to an arcade like Yifans again for just one afternoon.
