Hey Bemanistyle!
The name is Greg (Gweb). I'm currently living in Japan (Nagoya) for a year (study abroad) and looking to get back into Bemani games.
Back in the day (5+ years ago) I was pretty serious about DDR, but once my job at the arcade ended, so did my active DDR lifestyle.
A couple of years ago (maybe 2) I picked up the USA Beatmania game for the PS2 (if only to get the controller) and I've been playing casually ever since (but I'm looking to change that).
Now that I'm living in Japan I've had plenty of chances to go to the local arcades. Of course when I got there I found TONS of games...almost too many to play. I've narrowed down my area of potential expertise to a couple of games:
1) Jubeat Ripples
2) Beatmania IIDX
3) DDR (maybe, whenever I decide to stop smoking and work out again).
4) Street Fighter 4
I hope to get my knowledge up in all things Bemani and make some friends.
Nice to meet you! |
