Initial D The Arcade

6 game modes are available: Story Mode, Time Trial, Theory of Streets, Online Battle (2 players), Local Battle (2-4 players), Special (only available during events).
The arcade features two additional operation modes built into the service menu for local battles. These modes will not allow the players to earn any dress up tokens, avatar tokens, coins and XP for their instore battle rank which contributes to their racer grade.
In Story Mode, unlike the Arcade Stage series, the player occasionally has to race with one or two extra drivers.
Despite this, the player only needs to beat the main opponent or stay within a specified distance between the opponent in order to advance. Some missions will start the player off in the middle of the course.
The character voice acting is absent in place for pop up text dialogue and manga panels which are not localized for export versions aside from the mainland China release, and cutscenes are shown with the manga filter applied. Levelling up the Story Mode rank will reward the players with tachometers featured in previous games.
Players with a save file from Arcade Stage Zero on their Aime card were given continuous play rewards. These rewards include a full tune car ticket for each fully tuned car previously owned, titles based on the player's charisma level and fame, an Arcade Stage Zero avatar t-shirt and hoodie, avatar and dress up tokens based on the player's mileage. Players with a Sega World Driver Championship save file were given a t-shirt and hoodie and one full tune car ticket based on their driver level.

Initial D The Arcade is a arcade racing game developed and published by Sega for Sega ALLS MX2.1 in July 29th 2021 based on the Initial D series. It is the tenth Initial D arcade game, although it is separate from the Arcade Stage series. Unlike previous games, which used proprietary game engines, the game makes use of Unreal Engine 4.
Unlike the previous one-on-one experience of the Arcade Stage games, Initial D The Arcade features up to four players racing at any one time. Despite this, one-on-one battles are still available, with several appearing in the story. The game was also the first to use a different player avatar model as opposed to the same ones reused from Arcade Stage 4 to Arcade Stage Zero.

THIS GAME NEEDS A CONSOLE/STEAM VERSION TO OVERSEAS!!!!!!

[@akhimahathir2004]

Then why don't you ask sega first?

[@PlatinumNath]

Considering how unpopular IDAS was when it was pitted against WMMT in Asia and Internationally, Sega would more than likely never release IDTA internationally (officially that is... unofficial releases can happen for individual arcade owners) or even fully translate it to English anymore no matter how much anyone begged - it simply can't compete internationally because the gameplay is somewhat less aggressive than WMMT which people liked more (but I hate... Dirty racing is meta in WMMT) and also because it's not as household of a name in modern arcade gaming compared to WMMT

[@mtgmmelbourne]

Define "Overseas" because its already rolled out to 10 Countries outside of Japan.
China also has its own localised version in collaboration with WAHLAP.
The rollout is slow, sure. But given TEEG has no intrest to install the game in their venues, it really is up to most independent arcades to rent a set of cabinets.
Only problem, how do you convice them theres an audience to begin with.

[@KimSamaVideos]

@@mtgmmelbourne The truth is only virgin weebs who don't touch grass like Initial D while Wangan Midnight is more appealing to casual gamers

[@setsunago]

​@@KimSamaVideos On the contrary, there are many negative reviews of WMMT6RR+ now, and many Wangan players in Japan have switched to playing IDAC.

[@ultimatesupersisiipad9927]

I saw this arcade at few locations i go in summer time

[@thomaselers7416]

Aaah yes, I've been playing this to death in Tokyo.

[@KimSamaVideos]

I think I remember playing this when I lived in Japan

[@PacMuncher_CODM]

Did you play it

[@deathbywesker]

Wish they would make a console port of this even if it’s only PS5 exclusive. Don’t care if the language is Japanese only, would still buy in a heart beat. (I used to play the older ID/ WM arcade games back when arcades were still alive in the States.)

[@setsunago]

The home version sold poorly that year, and SEGA didn’t put much effort into the PS5 online platform. It’s mature and you don’t even think about whether the connection with players is stable or not.

[@leannetanaquin1175]

I didn’t have this at round one bowling in the USA because it’s sucks I’m stuck to the initial d arcade 8

[@cacaboy69eddymenace89]

Even that one was removed from my local up north place, smhh

[@austinjacob6007]

0:09 SEGA!!!!

[@enzoscaglia461]

I know is not still public the real 2.31 version

[@PacMuncher_CODM]

How did you manage to get that game to work on TP

[@waiho888]

Tutorial, has Game file, but can't run.

[@fachridevildestroy]

how to install this game?

[@enzoscaglia461]

Is not the definitive 2.31 version?

[@setsunago]

No.IDAC is still being updated. It is currently S4 version 2.50, but it is impossible to release the latest version unless your lawyer has the ability to defeat SEGA.

[@ColonelDBoy]

What emulator you use to play this game??

[@speeddrivertogether2024]

Teknoparrot

[@NastumaSama]

u can play the game without a emulator using the Project Todoroki servers instead of Teknoshit

[@Initial__N]

⁠@@NastumaSama can I get some more info? Couldn’t find anything on google. Teknoparrot isn’t my favorite

[@LittleHmoobBoi]

@@speeddrivertogether2024 Nah You gotta have the subscription for IDAC. But there are other ways around it Like Discord servers. They give you a guide on how to install it but finding the dumps is something you gotta do yourself

[@GTAbestplayer123]

@@NastumaSama fr.I hate the fact that the Teknoparrot devs put some games behind some lousy paywall lol.
