Default Is there any IIDX machine in Vancouver BC CANADA???

I'm a Taiwanese player who live in Vancouver BC CANADA now...

I know that there's a pop'n music 14 FEVER in Metrotown and I often go there to play during the weekend.
However, is there any IIDX in Vancouver area too?
I remembered that there was a IIDX 11 RED in Richmond....but I'm not sure that if it's still exist there now.

Also, is there any Taiwanese or Chinese people live in Vancouver also play pop'n music and IIDX?
If yes, please message me and we can make friends =)

probably not, seeing as the machine would have to be imported, and its expensive on its own. Also probably not for many other reasons (no one knows what the game is). Pop'n is no surprise, as its not too expensive to begin with, and the cabinet is pretty average.

Best bet for you would be to go to Ontario.

I think a place called Lovegetty has the BM IIDX goods that you're looking for.

And of course, there are a lot of Chinese peeps there too (though more of them are Cantonese speakers).

There is a IIDX DJ Troopers cabinet in Metrotown, which is near Vancouver.

Yeah, I believe it is at CHQ, according to this video...

YouTube - IIDX 15 DJ TROOPERS in action at CHQ

E-Spot is the arcade that had RED. I think they might have DJ Troopers as well now.

It does look nice and neat

And from the vids, it appears that the volume is already quite loud enough (loud enough that you probably won't need to use effectors that much).

Although..........why the hell is it on Difficulty Level 6? WTF?

They're becoming like the minority of arcades in Hong Kong (where their DJT are set to super high levels). Utterly pointless and it ruins the experience IMHO.

Still, if you're fine with it, then be my guest.............but if you can, then you should complain to the management and get them to return it to the default level (lvl. 4/medium) asap.

At the CHQ in Metrotown there is IIDX 15 DJ Troopers beside the DM/GF V5 Setup, at the back left of the arcade. If you are the guy I saw playing 40's on Pop'n then hello.

E-spot has IIDX 13: Distorted, but the screen is terrible which makes for an almost unplayable timing issue.

Lovegety no longer has any iidx. Last time i saw any beatmania was the 5th mix machine they were getting rid of. However, they do have Taiko no Tatsujin 10, which was quite a surprise.

The only IIDX machine in Ontario i know of is at Pacific Mall 2nd floor north of Toronto (in markham). It's a DistorteD machine hacked with some Gold menu music and stuff.

Heh.......

Though I'm surprised as to how they managed to get something like that to work.
