URGENCY: beatmania IIDX in danger of not being released; Please help out!

Reenee | April 30, 2007 | News | Playstation 2 
Pre-order quotas are not being met for this fantastic game. It is simply a miracle that Konami has held their interest for this long.

Please, notify your local arcade, Dave and Buster's, and if you even can spare a bit of your Skype minutes (or equivalent client), call ANY Dave and Buster's and let them know.
The fate of IIDX in America right now is grim, chances are it will never happen. There is really only one hope, and that is hustling arcades over the next few weeks. lets just say Betson is NOWHERE near their quota of ordered machines, and if they don't hit that, this isn't coming out. So here is my advice:

If your arcade owner already said they were going to get it or they already talked to Betson, this is NOT good enough. Trust me, I've seen the order list, your arcade isn't on it yet. Make them ORDER the machine. They have to comit to order it.

If your arcade doesn't know what it is, explain it to them, and MAKE THEM ORDER IT.

...Dave and Busters very well may be the be all and end all decission maker on this, as their order would be the largest order in America. You need to call your local D&B and keep on their asses about interest in IIDX Gold, if they do not commit to ordering pieces for all of their locations ,then the game WILL NOT come out. You can trust me on this much, DB is VERY interested, but not sold yet. Call your local D&B and stress this game, then do one better and call any corporate office you can get intouch with and stress this. Betson HAS to hit their quote, and it isn't looking good.

    There are 2 arcades around me (in NY) that have IIDX machines, so I don't see the problem .

    Just called my local arcade and told them why they order it, sarge. I'll go by it this weekend to make sure they actually did so.

    Deathsythe, those IIDX machines aren't even supposed to be there. Konami will not acknowledge those. We need actual LEGITIMATE interest.
