Taito announced a new arcade game named MUSIC DIVER scheduled to start operation this winter. This is is a musical game that uses 2 stick to hit two types of input areas: the screen device and the edge device that surrounds it. Each is divided into upper, lower, left and right and there are a total of 8 locations. During play, notes appear from the center of the screen according to the music and flow toward the outer circumference, so if you hit the input area specified when the judgment line is reached with the stick at the right time, the input will be successful. Each song has four different levels of difficulty: "EASY", "NORMAL", "HARD", and "EXTREAM". The songs are divided into 12 levels from 1 to 12. The biggest feature of this game is the "Create Dive" mode. In this mode, you can freely arrange the notes of the song and create a musical score of your choice, and you can change the instrument that sounds when you hit it. The created musical score can be saved on the amusement IC card, and can be uploaded to the server and shared with other players. MUSIC DIVER location tests will be held at Round 1 in Yokohama and Osaka from May 27th to 29th.

Released towards the end of 2021 on NeoGeo console, Neotris is finally available in MVS format. This variation of Tetris made by Chips on Steroids offers a caravan mode, a two-player versus mode and a single player mode where it is possible to play with or without time limit. The game is very colourful and has a funky atmosphere. You have to clear a certain number of lines in order to reach the next level, which grants you with a 3D bonus stage where you have to catch stars and a nice animation that tells you a bit of the story. As far as the gameplay is concerned, it is of course possible to rotate the pieces in both directions and bring them down directly. But it is also possible to put a piece aside to use it later. It should be noted that unlike the console version, this MVS version does not support the Neotap or the official SNK 4-player adapter, so it is not possible for more than 2 players to play at the same time. In addition to the game cartridge, the MVS kit includes a mini-marquee, flyers and an instruction sheet. Neotris is available for 180€ + shipping (35€ for Europe, 50€ outside Europe). To order it, send your details (name, surname, address, phone number and Paypal email address) to contact@chipsonsteroids.com and you will be contacted back.

Konami releases DANCE aROUND, the successor to its former dance game DanceEvolution, today. DANCE aROUND uses a pair of cameras to track the player's movements and compare them to those of the avatar. The game displays special markers that tell players to repeat the previous action or perform a mirror position. There are three game modes: Training (you can play for six minutes without a song limit), Light (you can play two songs with the first one up to LEVEL 6) and Normal (you can play two songs without LEVEL limit and if you pass both songs and your total score exceeds 200 points, you can go to the EXTRA stage). You can also choose between two different avatar styles, which are displayed during the game. In the NORMAL style, the avatar on the screen dances as it is modelled. Beginners can therefore easily have fun dancing by simply imitating the avatar's movements. The Performance style is for those who want to move freely with their own original choreography. Only the player's arm and leg tracks are displayed in the centre of the screen, and the avatar reflects the player's movements in real time in the preview window. Unlike DanceEvolution, which used realistic avatars, the avatars in DANCE aROUND are anime-style characters.
