Arcadia Rankings [Jan 2011 Issue]
A decent month for SNKP in the Japanese arcades it seems if the Arcadia Rankings are to be believed.
KOFXIII has finally moved up into 5th place in the Arcadia Rankings for the first time, after hovering around 6 and 7 since it’s release in Japan’s arcades earlier this year.
Also after dissapearing for a couple of months KOF02UM has re-entered at 7th place, and only 8 points behind Arcana Heart 3.
With the NESiCAxLive re-releases of KOF02UM and KOF98UM:FE, we may see KOF taking up 3 spots on the Arcadia Rankings in the near future. 😀
Check out the other SNKP related bits and pieces from Arcadia this month (not much though unfortunately!) up on my blog.

02um was placing 5th at one point for a couple of months, SFIV will probably get a massive boost when SSFIV:AE comes out.
While this arcade ranking shows that KoF XIII hasn’t been slacking when it comes to popularity, if we go to Amusement Journal and check their rankings we notice that KoF XIII has “dropped off”, compared to their last reading (rankings which are less subjective as they are meant for arcade owners, not public).

KOF2k2um has been more popular than SSF4 quite a few times already iirc. So it’s all good 🙂
KoF XIII … come onnnnnnnnnnnn! You can do it!
I think Basara X got a bit of a boost due to it being at SBO, the hack and slash series of it is quite popular in Japan too i think.
1 is Kidou Senshi Gundam Extreme Versus, 2 is Kidou Senshi Gundam VS Gundam NEXT.
Holy shit…Basara X?!?! Ppl play that game?
And what is first and second?
