Flurry of vintage pinball machines have been added to the database! Instead of describing them one by one, just check out Village Arcade in St. Peter's, PA. There are many electromechanical machines that so far are not found anywhere else... yet!

Some brand new games have been added to the database.

Friction: Light gun shooter
Dirty Drivin': An off-road racing game with customizable vehicles to choose from.
Dino Survivor: Shooter in the style of Let's Go Jungle with a Jurassic Park feel to it.

Edit: Fruit Ninja FX: A brand new giant touch screen game that was spotted recently at Dave & Busters has also been added to the database.

A whole flurry of retro pinball machines was added to the database, however instead of listing them one by one, the newest entries into the Aurcade database can be found here.
http://www.nationalpinballmuseum.org/museum/machines.html
What I like about this list is that every machine listed here links directly to http://www.IPDB.org for more detailed information about that game. All of the new pinball machines added to the list were from the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s.
On a side note, the very rare Capcom pinball machines can be found here too!

Three new games have hit the list.

Devastators: 1988 Konami shooter.

Raven: 1986 pinball machine co-created by Gottlieb and Premier

Wheel of Fortune: A brand new redemption game co-created by Konami, Raw Thrills, and Playmechanix. Features a video touchscreen and a giant wheel.

Edit: Also added salt and pepper to Silverball Mania, Gladiator, and Flip Flop pinball submissions. Just to make them a little more professional looking.

The local classic arcade just got some classic pinball machines in, and 3 weren't in the DB, so I've added them:
Bally: Silverball Mania and Flip Flop
Gottlieb: Gladiators

This is more of a siting than anything.

Mortal Kombat (2011) by Netherrealm is gaining popularity in arcades. This game was only available in consoles, however savvy arcade owners are creating cabinets of this game for arcade play. It is catching on. Be on the lookout for this game at your favorite arcade!

I saw two back in the day...and wasn't impressed...I don't think we should add or count bootlegs or alternate versions of games...like "Mr. OO", but that decision is not up to me. RObert "sid" Racek

I can understand your concern about not including bootleg or hacked versions of arcade games in the database. I can think of three reasons why they should.
1) KLOV does include them in their listing.
2) Just because some hacks are not as good as others doesn't make them any less worthy of being in the database. Can you imagine if we didn't include Crazy Kong? Pac-Man Plus? Street Fighter II Rainbow Edition?

(soapbox time!)
3)Some of the best arcade games in the world were made as a result of hacks and bootlegs of other games. Ms. Pac-Man came into being because of hacks like Mr. Otto. Crazy Kong actually hit arcades before Donkey Kong did.

We just need to explain it saying "yes, this is a bootleg. Here's the game they bootlegged off of". Now, granted, not every bootleg needs to be in there. 200 bootleg variations of Street Fighter would clog up the database and make it that much harder to search for your favorite game. Best piece of advice would be if you actually see it in an arcade, it's good enough for Aurcade.
