This may be of interest to some (though a few weeks old now)
http://www.versuscity.net/2009/11/30/arcadia-january-top-10-summary/
including top 10 Japan arcade list
1. Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion
2. Mobile Suit Gundam: Gundam VS Gundam NEXT
3. Melty Blood: Actress Again
4. Guilty Gear XX Accent Core (+1)
5. Blazblue (-1)
6. Street Fighter 4 (+1)
7. Virtua Fighter 5R (-1)
8. Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike (NEW)
9. Senko no Ronde DUO (-1)
10. King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match
other than #2 and #3 I'd pretty much agree
#3 i would disagree with. Not a big tekken player but i understand its popularity. GvG NEXT is fucking incredible. I wish yifans had that shit.
True , this list never changes, except sf4 and VF.
Somebody tried to bring this up in a argument on SF4 vs T6. Charts dont sway my opinions. I mean just take a look at the Music charts lmfao.

I would agree with that, IF it wasn't the Japanese Arcade scene. 99% of popular music is absolute horse shit, but it's still those guys who make the most money
Japan knows what they're talking about when it comes to arcade fighters lol
Nah you dont get what i'm saying bro.
You could look at the music charts in mutha fucking Brooklyn,NYC and tween girly shit still owns.
Man look at all the rappers spitting nursery rhymes high up in the charts. When niggas like Immortal Technique were unsigned and rapping brains with pure lyrical genius.
Your statement is like saying black people know there hip hop, when it's obvious half of them is mainstream clowns that dont know shit.
I might of gone off topic a bit, but this wasnt going anywhere anyways.
This chart is just showing the most popular stuff in Japan. Its statistical. Peoples opinions are always going to differ. Its just interesting stats to look at. Nothing more, nothing less.
Nah Yeah, and I lied. If SF4 was #1 i probably wouldn't like it, cos ima jackass.
Fucking chart bangers fo lyfe.
Oh well I've only played (and will probably only ever play) two of the games on that list. And they both start with the word Street.
I'm confused... I was under the impression that SF4 should be matching Tekken, or at least be under it in the worst case. And WTF is that Gundam sh!T? :)
I wasn't aware that there was a new version of Senko no Ronde. Awesome. Too bad we'll never see that sh!T over here. And I don't have a XBAWKs... :(
GGXXAC should really be no.3 IMO.
I'm actually really interested in playing GGXX etc again, GGXX#AC looks like a great installment, what with Testament being top tier n all (Used to play him on GGXX#R)

Mid screen 214P loop, lol...
I liked it because Millia was more rushdown than she was in #R. Air attack into air dash cancel FB disc anyone? :) And Zappa is a total rushdown beast with the 3 ghost.
I remember beating XBAWK hat guy's Sol with Zappa's 3 Ghost in #R once, he didn't look too happy... :) FRC Ghost X 10000000000000000000. In the corner. j.HS X 100000000000000000000 ;D
Feb list, t6 has been #1 for an entire year straight!

Wow wah wee wow.
So, chicks dont play T6. Or do they?
Heres my excuses.
Theres probably more Tekken 6 machines. Like NZ even.
People probably go to the Arcade and put there money in the game that has the best graphics, and it looks the newest.
They put their money in the wrong machine by accident.
It's a bunch of button mashers oooing and aahing at the cool moves button mashing does.
Most of the sf4 players are now in Jail. Or they are busy with sex,drugs and sex.

I like this one lol
"Oh fuck... that's the Tekken 6 machine ? I thought it was a vending machine for school girl panties"
i remember that the data of ranking is only collected by few co-operate gaming shops, which means is not the whole data of japan
