Technically not wrong, although Togue Shakai is a complete rework only thing they have similar are the idea and the developer. But yeah Its still kinda the same game
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
Correction : 1) Initial D is developed by SEGA 2) Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune series is developed by BANDAI NAMCO *BANDAI NAMCO never develope Initial D games. Initial D is solely owned and developed by SEGA*
Stage 3 nostalgia, Having those driver data saves were lit. Just walking into an arcade and seeing people line up their cards on top of the machines to wait to play was just part of core memories.
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
The Arcade Stage in 2021 IS released outside of Japan, you can find it in a few Asian countries like Taiwan or Singapore, but sadly has not migrated to the Americas or Europe. Really hope they do that soon, the game is awesome
For me, Initial D Arcade stage 5 is the most amazing ID game. The physic and saving the tyre/boost gameplay for grip play is most accurate in initial d anime/manga
Ahhh, I remember arcade stage 1-3 had magnetic card reader, to save a driver data. Young boys were in fever. They trained their home game-center, and went to different game-center to beat rivals. Which team was faster??
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.
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.
That's what happens when somebody who doesn't know shit makes videos for games he never played... and just looks online. He even wonders "why would that be", come on... It's obvious it was due to the engine change to the next generation of hardware :/ Also, yes, Akina Snow was a thing since ever.
Great content! These evolution type videos are common, but the way you make it, it's really great, not just showing the games, but making you own comments on it, keep it up!
the AA in the later arcade series, as far as i know stands for double ace, the machines are usually 4 cabs due to being one played for the uphill while the other races downhill
Stage 3 is the freaking legend. Street stage is also underrated. Stage zero and the arcade are fun, but it's hard to say you are driving when you play the games. Initial unity is great. But it will be better if it supports steering wheels control.
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.
Amazing content! I'd like to see an evolution of the Wangan Midnight game series. I only saw footage of the arcade machine games and i think of it as one of the best games out there! I wish they were released outside of Asia, honestly..
NA is still stuck on 5DX+, but Asia *and* Australia are on 6RR. There are some other countries in Europe with machines as well but these are usually older machines like 3DX+ or 4. If it wasnt so expensive to license it would be nice to have you guys have access to 6 too since its got a global ghost system to race other countries :)
Special Stage is my all time favorite. It has the courses from Stage 2, plus additional ones like Shin Usui, anime VA dialogues and a story mode that follow up to Takumi’s encounter with Bunta in the WRX.
ID: The Arcade can be found at B. Lucky & Sons in Melbourne Central. Need to get a blank Wangan Max Tune card though as ID: The Arcade uses a similar system
One main reason why i enjoy Arcade stage 8 a lot more than zero, is that the animations and even voice lines were removed. Idk why this ticks me so much but the animation and voice lines made it the perfect initial D game and removing that and replacing it with the Less memorable Legends style with only text just feels like an insult to the work that was put into the previous installments in the series. It's not a bad game, just dissapointing in some areas.
Its sad how Sega has the rights to make every Initial D game and they deliver one garbage after another. This franchise has so many potential, witch besides can be canonical to Yakuza games. In the end of the day, the best experiences for enthusiasts of tofu delivering is somewhere else, but not on Initial D games. Ok, i cant leave without mention that Kaido Racer 2 is the real deal.
"Never released outside of Japan" Well, that is true, but my local arcades actually imported cabinets for Stage Zero and The Arcade. Granted it isn't translated into english, we can still play online with other players.
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
Actually there's Akina (snow) version on Initial D 3rd stage the arcade. This is still my favorite arcade racing game, I use to play 2nd stage constantly at my local arcade till they got rid of the card reader where I couldn't use my card anymore.
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).
Technically if you get lucky enough you might find an initial D cab at a nearby round 1 (one) which is connected to official servers, and if you own an IC card, it will pull your data like usual (just make sure to look for a _red_ logo on the card for higher compatibility)
5:25 "This one (arcade stage 6aa) even had a snowy course.. which was new to the series" The course itself? Or snow? We had snow courses as far back as like stage 3- which had akina snow
As of today, Initial D The Arcade has unofficial servers running. Playable on PC with wheels/controllers, game saves (emulated aime card), and a WIP English translation mod.
I'm just so glad that Arcades still exist where I live and we have ID Arcade. I started properly playing it in march as the ID0 machines are starting to break down, and it's so much easier to get people into IDAC because if the physics change.
I have fond memories of me and my wannabe-drifter friends going to the arcade playing Stage 3 in high school. Since then I've only played stage zero a couple times, but it didn't quite feel the same.
Such a cool video, thank you for talking about the Initial D games! I wish I knew about the anime back then when the PS2 version came out so that I could have had it and played with it. 😭
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....
It might just be an exception but I was able to play Initial D the Arcade at Arcade Monsters in Orlando, FL so in some way, it's made its way overseas.
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.
Intial D The Arcade is actually in my mall's arcade. Took awhile for me to figure out how to change the shifting to manual since there is no english version I believe. But overall, really fun with friends or yourself.
Thanks you for making this video! Before watching I didn't know there is a product on GameBoy :). By the way, name of Initial D Arcade Stage 6, "AA" is mean: double Ace: uphill and downhill, and the name of Initial D Arcade Stage 7, "X" is mean: cross.
Special Stage is the only Initial D game I had played & owned before on PS2 when I was a child I had played those Arcade Stage series before on the arcade machines in shopping malls
also, kind of ashamed that you didn't talk much about the differences in handling between the arcade stage games but i guess your average player wouldn't notice it too much
About Initial D - The Arcade. It actually released outside Japan and I have seen a lot of people playing it because of way different handling compared to previous games and better graphics and yeah, the story is boring and the rivals are too easy that I never touch it after I got my first full tune car. The only thing I like about that game is the online races where you can race with other players and it has 4 player local multiplayer
Which of these games is your favorite?
Underrated content u deserve a million views and comments the editing is really nice
@@KaTyJP These comments always make my day. Thanks a million ♥️
of course initial unity, im still playing it and love it ✨
all arcade stages are good games. Last i play its 8. I cant run zero stage. i download python scripts and over tools. maybe i doing something wrong.
visaols dont changes, maybe minor after stage 6
Initial Unity actually came out on Steam, it’s now called Togue Shakai. Came out on the 7th of January. It’s pretty good so far.
Nono its by the same developer but its a different game. It has different physics and everything
Technically not wrong, although Togue Shakai is a complete rework only thing they have similar are the idea and the developer. But yeah Its still kinda the same game
@@Mercxry_404 I just left out those details lol
@@Mercxry_404 same concept but it only has 2 cars in common so far, no common roads, and different physics I consider them different games
I don't find it under that name, no results.

If they're implementing saves into arcade games then I think it's time for them to make a console/pc version lol

I actually got to play the newest Initial D arcade game at las vegas this year, and it was actually pretty fun
For me, Initial D Arcade stage 5 is the most amazing ID game. The physic and saving the tyre/boost gameplay for grip play is most accurate in initial d anime/manga
Yup it like playing a Gran Turismo... Need to save the tire... Love IDAS5 to bits...
Arcade Stage2でドハマりしたな…
タイムアタックやるようになるとコーナー一つ目失敗でスタート＋セレクト同時押しの強制終了で、１０秒しないで１００円が溶ける恐ろしいゲームだった。

I loved how the opponents in the Arcade Stages actually used their moves from the games. It was awesome.
i never thought graphics would get better overtime
I play street stage on my psp, and its awesome , its so good im obsessed

I have to say this is one of the first "Evolution" videos that I actually liked a lot
Thanks a bunch, I appreciate it :)
spent so much money on arcade stage 3 when i was younger. i always play when i see one in stores or when i am in asia
Turn based racing is completely insane lmao
Now all the Initial D Arcade legacy is in Assetto Corsa and this is the best what could happened to this files
the intial d arcade one stage 3 i have at my local bowling alley and its really fun it has a wheel a shifter and a handbrake for the setup it sick
Most people should have already pointed out, but AA means double aces
Initial unity got a sequel called Touge Shakai, add it to this
I'm watching from Japan, but I feel very nostalgic
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。

Dude thanks for the video, it was really interesting, you also got a great voice
Thanks a lot, appreciate it 😊
What’s the song playing in the background of the Arcade Zero showcase?
Stage 3 for me 🥲 childhood nostalgia
About Initial D - The Arcade. It actually released outside Japan and I have seen a lot of people playing it because of way different handling compared to previous games and better graphics and yeah, the story is boring and the rivals are too easy that I never touch it after I got my first full tune car. The only thing I like about that game is the online races where you can race with other players and it has 4 player local multiplayer
The one for PSP was the reason I jailbroke my vita I personally like it way better than the ps3 version
PSP game slapped wdym💀
Initial D Arcade Stage Version 3 is goated in my opinion. No other Initial D game can top that game.
i only tried initial D ps1 a few times as its pretty hard haha
Initial D The Arcade will come to america but we'll have to wait a few more years until sega markets it in USA
