I was hoping Salamander 2 would bring you back out. Still finding small spaces for cabinets to go...our expansion is filling up quick too.

We have a brand new game by Raw Thrills in the database! I was going to release a list of brand new games and have them ready for arcades to receive them, but life happened and never got around to compiling the list... now one amusement center has one of these brand new games out and I'm scrambling to add it to the database, but it's there! Just for you guys! :D
SnoCross: A snowmobile racing game made by Raw Thrills in 2012
EDIT: a classic arcade game has found its way onto our database! I remember playing this as a kid!
Skull & Crossbones: A pirate themed scrolling fighter made by Atari Games in 1989.

I have added Last Resort on the Neo Geo MVS into the database, along with a scoring format. This has one less difficulty level than other MVS games and defaults to 3. Just got it into my arcade last week and seems like a fun game from what little I have played of it so far.

Added a new site today (Grinkers in Eagle ID) and they had a few games not in the database:
Blue Shark by Midway 1978: B&W undersea game where you shoot at various sea creatures and try to avoid shooting the divers.
Boot Hill by Midway 1977. B&W old west "shoot out" game that can be player vs cpu or player vs player
Darius by Taito 1986. Unique shooting game with the game play spread across 3 monitors
Flyball by Atari 1976. B&W baseball game
Space Panic by Universal 1980. Labyrinth type game where you dig holes to trap aliens.
Space Wars by Cinematronics 1977. I believe this is just a different name for Space War, which was done by Vectorbeam.
Warp Warp by Rock-ola 1981.

New manufacturer in database
on 2/22/2013 1:12:19 AM
This addition was long overdue, but I feel it needed to be done to help fix some entries in the database.
SNK/Playmore: This union came out in the early 2000s to create many of the newer King of Fighters titles and some of the Metal Slug series among others.

Right On! Mars Trek is an intriguing machine. A number of people have noted that although the flippers don't go up far enough to enable ball trapping, all the shots on the table can still be made. I'd never seen the game before Add-A-Ball 1.0 opened in 2009.
Incidentally, there's one in my basement next to Barracora and Special Force.

I need to update my own database with the new game references and places.
I am currently writing a program for you guys that will list location/game data NOT indexed in Aurcade, by order of how many games they have in total, and then alpha by name. Lots of onesies, but there you go.
Sent you a post yesterday regarding the leading item on that list, Rock Fantasy in Middletown, NY, with 25 pins!
Pink Panther?!? Man, I remember playing that game when it was new up at Ackerman Student Union UCLA! On acid! That takes me back.
