Not exactly news, but a small group headed out to the AMF bowling alley on Kessels Rd, MacGregor last night to check out reported sightings of a Dance Dance Revolution Solo 2000 cabinet.
Sightings confirmed!
The machine is in reasonably good condition, and is set to $1 (or 1 Token) for 4 songs, although there are a range of Non-Stop tracks that will count for 2 normal songs.
The Solo series didn't last too long, so the selection of songs is quite small, but it's certainly a fun part of DDR history to check out. 6-panel mode takes a little getting used to!
The AMF has a few different arcade cabinets, and offer token deals as well (6 for $5, 13 for $10, 28 for $20 and 75 for $50). They also have a range of surprisingly ok food available, with the Deluxe Dog getting the cheap-ass thumbs up from us.
Our final surprise of the night came when we saw the High Scores - a lone top score from KMN, then everything else belonging to OOI. The legend lives on!
