Nowadays, very hard to find arcade in malls since they are closing down left and right. Even the current ones have boring games (eg Mid Valley). I need my pew pew craving like Time Crisis 2 and Point Blank. Anyone know where I can find arcades that have these games in KL/PJ area?

Also don't understand why new malls don't have arcades. All the newly opened malls so boring as they only have cinema or children play centre as a form of entertainment in malls. Boring leh. At least open a small one lah so people like me can play game to release stress after teman gf shopping for hours.

Sunway Pyramid has the nearest mall arcade I know of,there were mostly racing and some touch-screen music games.

I miss the days people line up to play fighting games.They are all good players from spending years playing the same games.

What happened the arcade in Time Square??

nowadays arcade not making money, cost of machine too high, and operation license another issue, you always see arcade kena shutdown by police. and most people playing arcades on PC, and new games usually ported to PC & Consoles.

so now popular ones are those not on PC & Consoles like Wangan & Initial D which requires steering setups, or those music games, or taiko drum games. Light guns still have, Puchong IOI mall top floor has Time Crisis 3 or 4 or 5 forgot and few light gun games.

Point Blank i long time never see. but you can play on Mame/PSX with mouse or Wii-mote if you really want.

I been playing the same kof game since secondary school till now lol. Left only a few arcade in kl now. Even the legendary pacman is closed now

The only arcade that still got those arcade cabinet i think is
KL
1) The Mines
2) Summit
3) Mid Valley (i dislike that balltop so big ...n the chair so high when the arcade lower than the chair ....my back.....it hurt....)
4) IOI mall (i only c 3 arcade cabinet for puzzle bubble , n maybe kof 02?)
5) Iutama (got some KOF)
6) Old carrefour at Sri Petaling (dunno what name), inside got those old Pac man KOF kaki

I guess that all? Others i not name it because doesnt got those arcade FTG or game i want to play. as most of them only Tekken.....whole arcade only Tekken.... like IOI mall that new arcade center at new wing.... just tekken....others is Wangan....

Really hard to find arcade to play now.
I also build a Raspberry Pi for myself to play the arcade game on it.

Last time I went Sunway got timecrisis 2 but the calibrationf of gun broken need to point blank at screen only can reg the hits

currently sunway pyramid lah where else? summit usj also so boring now.

Point Blank ah? no longer available for so long lah

rental dem expensive lah. you charge customer rm2 per game also hardly see kids nowadays main arcade

summore kids nowadays got hp, consoles, online game at home

those days we can see arcades are everywhere. sg wang, kotaraya, chi liung klang, almost everywhere got. at least in one area one shoplot sure got 1 arcade

arcade konon
sebenarnya cari mesin kuda

Its worse here. Most arcade centers in Penang are gambling dens.
Provided can go gurney plaza for the arcade...but mostly I see not many ppl there and the games seems to be expensive this days.

u want arcade? go genting lah. there can also shopping for ur gf what

anyone here finish playing TIME CRISIS 5? i saw one at the curve

For beginner, i suggest you use Recalbox, is more easy to setup than Retropie,
until u good wit it, then u only move on to Retropie.
Currently i using Recalbox, although his update is the slowest,
but stable.

Genting....damn expensive... the game for here RM3, there mayb 6 above.
those Fighting game also all rosak.... each time i go...so sad....

Inside got those KOF , SF machine?

Not sure, only remember got tekken there.

Thanks didnt know there was alternative retropie
Hope it is easy to setup
LAter i go try

I do think Wangsa Walk has the best arcade. Still got Time Crisis 2 machine and many fighting game machines. For me, the best arcade in the past 5 years was the one at Mid Valley (near where the bowling place was last time) before they renovated the arcade. Still remember there were rows of stick arcades (back-to-back connected too) and 8 player classic Daytona. Good times.

Wangsa Walk got SSF4AE2012 machine. Very good quality still.

Not sure if it's really Drummania itself but I saw a brand new looking drumming machine at Velocity.

Retropie for PRO
Recalbox for Beginner

Installing Recalbox is more easier than Retropie,
Retropie need to flash it to your SD card ; while Recalbox just download the zip file, unzip n put into the root of your SD card,
Turn on the Pi, if the SD card is ok, Recalbox will install.
If u want to know anything about recalbox. U can ask me.

SSF4AE2012 ....quite old
But better than nothing....

Mid Valley arcade not so nice, seriously. Expensive than others (last time), but i always found their button rosak.....
Now, my only complain is the chair is too high, play Tekken also difficult, my back hurt

Velocity arcade so good, but doesnt got those fighting game or any arcade cabinet i want to play.
One thing i hate is....my favor racing game OUTRUN 2 SP, they use PC ver with Chinese song on it....damn.....

Nowadays more and more arcade become gambling gen

last time klang valley folks, THE place to go is Jaya supermarket and KL-ites are Kota Raya and Kompleks Pertama.

Nowadays many gambling machines. that day i frequent the arcade at IOI Puchong, there are 2 big machines which depicts ocean life and a few uncles and aunties keep pumping in coins into the machines and pressing a button. how to play this game actually?

Fishing that one? U just keep put your token in, to buy bullet to shoot n catch those fish.
Catch one drop token, bigger fish more drop.

THen those uncle aunty that win many token,
Wangan player or any arcade player will go buy those token from them with very cheap price (i not sure how much, but i know last time TimesSquare, they sell like 4 token or 6 for RM1. i not sure lah, but my fren that time they buy many, play game damn cheap.)

yaya, that one. no wonder see them one hand put coins and another pushing the button, i tot wat the hell is this game about.

I heard that TimesSquare got new arcade,
but got rumor say that is a gambling arcade......
I really miss the old TimesSqaure arcade that play game not gambling.

this is mini project for me .but i cant use kodi already after i install recalbox ?

What other project you do with raspberry ?,can build mini arcade box

Yes u can. Kodi is included inside Recalbox.

OK good, 2 in 1 . I will install back all the addon and RSS

I also want to find arcade especially i miss the time I played Metal slug, and hope to show how I played first metal slug without death or clear with one coin

Where to find this?

niama apaaal nekro

Right now I played great arcades by Konami,Sega,Tecmo from 90s in a new arcade hall in PD, Regina mall. 1 RM only.

I travelled a lot within Malaysia and one of my hobby during travelling is finding old game arcades in various places. Would like to share my findings where you can find arcades from 90s, not modern shit )
1. TOP one-hidden gem of Port Dickson, Regina mall https://goo.gl/maps/463Z6GuAF4zDsr3T9 You can play rare and old arcades from Sega, Namco for 1RM per game. Located on the highest floor. They have really big collection of old machines with railgun shooters, racing games.
2. Taiping Mall,Perak https://goo.gl/maps/b1UG9SQYdYGrJXQt5 There are 2 spots with arcades, the first one is located at LG floor in front of a grocery store. There are mostly railgun games. The second one is on the highest floor with old racing games like SEGA Outrunners. You can spend 1 hour there for sure.
3. Jaya Shopping Centre,PJ https://goo.gl/maps/ASHFJBdNYG9rQ6pc6 The only place in Klang valley i know with only old machines. It's nearby with TGV cinema. You can find there Virtua cops, Time Crisis 1&2 and other games from early 90s. 1-2rm per game.
4. 1utama,PJ. There is a branch of cobay with modern arcades on the 5th floor. However, they have the biggest collection with old NEOGEO arcades with soccer, KOF, bubble bobble,etc. Also, they have Batman pinball machine. Check it out.
Let's create an ultimate list of old arcades in Malaysia, write in comments other places, guys!

Recently was thinking of having a photoshoot with my model at arcade center, did some dig found this one

A list of arcade centers from molly fantasy
www.aeonfantasy.com.my/store/

hopefully they continue to operate, arcade is childhood memory for all the 80s kid

Sorry necro,

Looking for old Initial D stage 3 arcade, mana ade?

KK Sabah got lol

but not very good condition

ioi mall got, both old and new wing acrade center also got

Sunway Velocity arcade got one game youngster wear gloves and whack the screen machiam screen got lalats

Genting got

where in kl got arcade with X-Men Vs Street Fighter?

ayam last time dabao many players with wolverine 99 combos

Thanksss and damnnnnn just literally came back from puchong jaya for dinner

Hard to find now.

I normally wont do 99 hits combo on real people, even if i did, i only repeat few times n stop it. I dun want later bcome real human fight. Lol So i only done it on Ai more.
Even nowadays if u got good line vs overseas player wit FightCade 2, they normally wont do infinite combo, just do few repeat n stop.

no real human fight

but used to bet per game hahas

cant recall, probably around year 1998

That's just maybe your arcade. Not all will be like that. 😂

Any where in PJ can play Mach storm ? Sit in cabinet version.
Gives me vertigo, I liked it.

dayum teringat my friends
those were the days..

i think those are more hard to find nowadays.

yeah, 1U crossfire used to have it. only played 2 missions, went back 2 weeks later and the machine not there anymore

I already stop going arcade, since now arcade not like old days.
For big big machine, i think mayb can try The Mines, 1U n Genting.

That's the best i can think of. Others just old game, n racing game more.
I want to play the classic arcade cabinet game like old days 98 those, also hard now
but i play online nowadays. So i guess is ok for me

Lalaport top floor just open the electric gocart. Got a nice track there.

yeah, nowadays i play arcade just for the experience like sit in cabinets and lightgun.
i have a pc running batocera at home for mame games, so space for actual pandora box cabinet though.

damnnnn i was there few days ago. didnt know they have a small cart to carry young toddler at the back. else i would have tried with my daughter. looks fun.

mana satu cb bump tered lama

I tried it yesterday.
It's fun.
I drove the "Ferrari".
