    Initial D and Wangan Midnight by Bandai are still today the most played arcade games here in Japan. Whenever I go to the arcades, the Initial D machines and Wangan midnight are always full. Now a days you can even create save files in the arcade. Just swipe a IC card, and your save gets loaded with the car customizations

      *BANDAI NAMCO never develope Initial D games. Initial D is solely owned and developed by SEGA*

    AA = Double Ace
    Which means Project D's double ace, Takumi Fujiwara & Keisuke Takahashi, and new Tag Battle feature.
    AAX = Double Ace Cross
    Same as AA, and refers a new CPU Tag Battle mode.

    Every single Arcade Stage game has its own unique physics that makes each game worth playing at least once. Surprising how SEGA manages to refresh them in a way that doesn't just feel like its a complete port of old physics from other games, which means every game also has it's own set of mechanics and techniques that behave differently based on the game, you got old D's (1,2,3) Eraser and TST, 1 being floaty fast, 2 being fast and grippy, and 3 being slower and stiffer,
    to 4/4Kai's wacky cornering physics and "overspeed penalty",
    to 5's "Tire wear" mechanic and the first game to introduce Brake Cancels in the form of Powerslides,
    6 with the Drift system and boost systems that influence cornering and acceleration, different cornering settings with their own varying physics,
    7 with their "fast brake cancel" with emphasis on keeping as much speed through corners
    8 with their stiffer but faster pace, reflected in their brake cancels where it feels like doing a combo on a fighting game lol
    Zero with their take on hybridizing D6 and D8, incredibly high speeds with fast cornering. Using brake cancels and gas release tech
    Zero2 with their stiffer physics but still keeping very fast pace, with the introduction of the tire and body gauges, meaning that races become more like battles of attrition than all-out sprints, using the H shifter to its full advantage for 5-3 shifting, and infamously the "wheel slam" technique to reduce understeer when cornering
    The Arcade with their unique take on physics, no longer needing tech to drift, and being able to corner by simply slowing down to an appropriate speed, with the car improving its cornering based on your speed and stiffening at faster speeds, with minor changes for Season 1,2 and 3

    I get confused everytime I see these Initial D videos because my experience with the arcade games was so different than the information online.
    For example, I am 90% certain Stage 2 and Stage 3 had snow courses, at least for Akina. Stage 4 seemed like it completely changed the series too, switching to cell shaded graphics and using a hard manual shifter instead of the sportstronic one from the previous 3 games. Also the cards were thicker and more expensive. But I dunno, maybe I'm wrong.

    • @Mameyaro
      @Mameyaro 2 роки тому +5

      Version 2 and 3 did have snowy Akina, and Version 4 completely changed the physics model to a simpler one that wasn't as popular as Version 2 and 3. Version 4 also switched to a new card system that was more robust than the old ones which meant you never had to "renew" them like the old ones. The shifter didn't change from the simple up/down one until Arcade Stage 0 in 2017, which featured a full 6 speed manual.

    not sure what happened to my comment before but imma rewrite it:
    Arcade Stage 0: first game to include support for Sega Aime and soon Banapassport and e-amusement cards. Game soon got collab events with Touhou Project and MF Ghost, the sequel to Initial D.
    Initial D The Arcade was released internationally... i guess.. as an export version but I guess Sega or whoever was responsible for importing the games are pretty bad with responding to arcade venues. Australia is pretty much the only western country to have at least 5 places officially connected to the servers but I see majority play Wangan Midnight. Hence the dead online and local battles. Since the Sega Aime system was a thing, those who played IDAS0 got their full tuned cars turned to tickets to buy in the newer title.

    The physics jump between 3 and 4 was massive, enough to turn me off from Arcade Stage for a few years. The latest looks incredible though. I wish I had nearby arcade cabs

      4 actually made it easier to drift... so its fun in its own right... especially when u are watching the replays and see your car actually drifting like in the anime.. very cool... 1 2 and 3 your car can barely slide.. let alone drift....

    6AA=Double Ace
    7AAX=Double Ace cross
    4→4改(kai)というマイナーチェンジバージョンもあります。

    I would say Initial D8 was the last good one imo, car data was stored locally on cards, and people still to this day can play Initial D8 at Round1s in the US. but finding a card is hard now since they dont manufacture them anymore and you have to see if the card reader is even functional because sometimes they could just be off or broken. my round1 has perfectly functioning card readers, but no cards. I also happen to work there lol.

    Welp the "Initial D The Arcade" is available outside japan. I live in Hong Kong and they have some english added into the game but most of them are just japanese
    I guess its just not available outside of Asia, which is still sad

    The creator(s) of Initial Unity are making a sequel/successor named Touge Shakai, which is currently in early access on Steam (according to some the physics are unfortunately not as good as in Initial Unity).
