Heeey I’m gonna answer a few questions since I know Hiso won’t haha 1. Currently this is the only machine in Canada, it’s located in British Columbia. 2. Yes, there are machines in the US. In fact, I know at least 20 states that have at least one, including Texas, California, Pennsylvania, and New York (where I’m from). If you want to know where they are just Google a list of all US Project Diva Arcades. 3. The current Covid situation in our area is nowhere near as bad as it is in other areas. In this arcade specifically, there is sanitizer bottles at nearly every machine and masks are required. On top of this, we always avoid playing near machines currently in use and choose to go at times when the arcade is near empty. 4. Yes, Hiso made me record this video. I stood still for 10 minutes straight and I’m pretty proud of how steady I was considering I have insanely shaky hands. 5. I know it’s shocking, but I do not play Project Diva. I did at one point in an attempt to surpass Hiso, but I ended up getting lazy and quitting soon after. 6. Yes, unfortunately there was an incredibly loud Taiko machine right next to this machine. However Taiko machines and other popular Japanese arcade games are very common here and that is why you don’t see us get excited about them.

[@Mao0039]

Props to holding the camera/phone well. I tried recording a friend at Round 1 and did horrible at it and now feel embarrassed from him uploading the shaking gameplay

Thank you for the great camera work 😁

[@gnomesies]

Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I am really thankful for all your videos and content. You have given me a newfound love for the game that I never really played. I have been working really hard because I aspire to be on your level one day and I'm even thinking about getting the courage to stream soon because of you! Keep doing what you are doing and thank you so much for giving me the inspiration to try and continue playing at a higher level

[@gnomesies]

@@Mars44875 I learn from what they are doing. I usually listen with the sound up really high to pick up on the beats so I can recreate it later. That and I can see someone else play the pattern before I go in blind so maybe that's what happens to you too?

@@gnomesies yeah guess we can all thank hisokeee for giving us a fragment of their godly powers XD

[@Carraway-]

I always think some of these songs are a little easier than advertised, then I remember they're built for an arcade machine and that a majority of the game is made easier by having a DualShock lol

[@amatsu-ryu4067]

Really? I always thought it looked easier on the arcades because you had more freedom to move your hands rapidly, but with a controller you can only rely on the speed and strength of your thumbs.

[@Carraway-]

@@amatsu-ryu4067 true, but the fact that you have double the face buttons to work with as well as macro buttons you can set, including one that just hold whatever note you want while you deal other spams must trivialize it compared to the arcade release to some extent.

[@brudbrud9137]

That's right real men only play arcade

I've been there, honestly, and you may have heard this before, but practice seriously helps. I've managed to get perfects on a few extreme songs after starting on normal songs not too long ago, it's just practice and do the hardest songs of the mode to try it out, no matter if you get them wrong, it still helps practice

[@matcha_17]

うぽつです！カナダにも筐体あるんですね I’m Japanese. I was very surprised. There is a arcade machine in Canada. I played it 2 months ago in Ikebukuro (at the first time),but I’m worried because they are decreasing. We can play only in the city... I speak English a little, so they may be hard to read.

[@hisokeee]

Yes they are getting rare, it's a shame because they are very fun!

[@MrVirtualMachine0]

Yeah, The only one I know of in my state is the one at my mall's Round 1 arcade. There were 3 or 2 at first, but now it's just the one in a corner of the arcade

[@rinchanlife]

This is so fun and kinda sad for me to see, as I remember going to a little arcade in the small city I live in here in Spain with lots of fun machines (not Project Diva, though), but it ended up being totally wiped out of the mall it was located and turned into a crappy bar, I think xDDD. There was also one near my house, and that one was more of a "Japanesque" arcade, as I remember it had the original House of the Dead from SEGA, which is a fecking 1996 game. Now I feel old XD. That arcade was also turned into a supermarket or something like that, along with the disappearance of a cinema next to it. Goddamn, those were good times... at least we have now emulators, game passes and similar stuff to relive some of those oldie and golden games' experiences :)
