Close ITG machine?(Manhattan)

[dragonmegaXX]

Im on vacation in NYC right now, and Im staying in a hotel literally one block from the southwest most side of central park and .8 miles from time square, and Ive made it a tradition to try to find an ITG machine near wherever I go.

I generally use DDR freak to find locations, but Im not sure how reliable that is anymore.

If anyone know a good machine on Manhattan, let me know because Ill be here until Saturday 12/25/11.

Also if you wanna hang out at the said location, drop me a message.

I only know of the ones here in Jersey which you could take a train to get to. But maybe Marcus knows of one in the city. I'm sure there has to be one somewhere.

Well I'd rather something I could take a taxi to, considering my mom and sister would be coming too.

There's ITG in the Chinatown arcade on Mott street -- it's the only one I know of. Weird hours of operation, though. It almost seems random as to when they are open/closed. They also go through fluctuations where they close down for extended periods of time.

There is a DDR Supernova machine in Port Authority, second level. There's also one at the lower level of Toys R Us in Times Square, and DDRX at Dave and Busters in Times Square, but the pads are utter shit.

Are you referring to this?

If so then apparently they're closed :<

And are the DDRX pads bad enough that I may as well not go?

Re: Close ITG machine?(Manhattan)

It's been saying it's closed for eons now; but they still operate. I was literally there not long ago so I doubt they're gone for good, but who knows. Could be different this time. I remember the first time I went, it was all boarded up and it looked completely finished. Went there a few weeks later, and it was open, roaring, and doing business. It's a complete grab-bag.

The Toys R Us machine is playable. Apparently there are machines at Mars2112 but I've never been there so I can't speak to their quality.

The DDRX machine is worthless. Feels like you're playing J8 -- that's how bad the pads are.

NYC unfortunately completely sucks when it comes to the ITG/DDR scene. XD

More than makes up for it, though, with the food scene. <3

Re: Close ITG machine?(Manhattan)

ITG/DDR > Food for me
:'c

I play everywhere I go so I guess Ill suck it up and play a game or two on the crap DDRX pads...
