I visited the Chinatown Fair Arcade for the first time yesterday. Considering that it took roughly 4 hours by car and train to get to NYC, the experience was definitely worth it. I had the time of my life, being able to play in a real arcade for the first time in about what feels like a decade, not to mention being able to play against live competition. Of course, I spent plenty of quality time on MBAA. The buttons seemed to work just fine on both sides. However, the 2p joystick was rather faulty, and sometimes wouldn't register down-right at all, probably costing me a match or two. Still, it was awesome to play it in an arcade, and I can't wait for the PS2 version! As for those I played against, you were all really good, and I had a lot of fun being able to play against you. Intense games! I'll definitely come again soon, which will hopefully be in the summer. Why must I live so far away?
P.S. - I was the one playing as Len and W. Len yesterday. W. Len seemed a lot easier to play as in this game than MBAC, which is really nice.
