Densha de Go!! (loosely translated to "Go by Train!!") is an electric train simulation game developed by Taito and released by Square Enix for arcades (using PC-based Taito Type X4 hardware) in Japan on November 7, 2017.

Heavy Smash portrays a futuristic, armored, no-rules version of handball. The player is allowed to select one of various national teams (plus a robot team with a space station as home turf), some of them with an unique armor design reflecting some kind of perceived national tradition (a samurai armor for Japan and a sort of sci-fi football outfit or USA, for example) and some other being just palette swaps. Each team has a distinctive special shot, which has to be loaded up with a power gauge and each team member, in addition to tackling and roughing up opponents with no penalty whatsoever, can even perform a ranged attack in order to gain ball control.
At its core, it's the typical “win or go home” coin-op sports game, with increasing difficulty and opponent skill each match.
Over 30 years later, the PAC is Back and better than ever! This new video redemption piece brings back the classic PAC-MAN game concept but now rewards players with tickets or a gift card. Players acquire points by munching on as many of the familiar Pac-dots and fruits as they can while being chased by the ghosts; Inky, Blinky, Pinky, and Clyde. If successful in entering the ghost house, players can win the “PAC-POT” and are treated with a mesmerizing PAC-MAN animation. Options for the “PAC-POT” can include tickets or gift cards*. The cabinet is beautifully lit from top to bottom with multicoloured LEDs as well as a spectacular LED marquee that scrolls the classic 8-bit PAC-MAN animation.
A sequel to Thunder Ceptor. The game is very much like the original; the player controls the Thunder Ceptor (now colored light blue), and must shoot the incoming crafts (now colored from gray to green) as normal. There are now multiple obstacles, including large rods, and flying panels (like the Bacura from Xevious), and the obstacles can now be destroyed with the bombs, now no longer having to avoid them. As the name suggests, the game is playable in 3D, and is the only Namco arcade game to do so. The player would put their head up to the attached goggles on the machine for the 3D effect.
In the 80s, Taito produced a lot of popular coin-ops – mostly shoot-em-ups, puzzle and platform games. However, their beat-em-ups were not among their best. Kabuki Z is one of them. Developed by Kaneko of Gals Panic fame/infamy, it can best be described as a “hack-n-slash”. The intro sequence gives a good idea of the game’s content: a man commits seppuku, and behind him our samurai hero with his katana. The samurai chops his head off while the rice paper doors close, the resulting blood spurt splashing over them and forming the “Z” in the “Kabuki Z” title. Charming.
