Maiden post!

Hello everyone! If you're seeing this blog, I welcome you! This blog will be dedicated about the arcade gaming industry in the Philippines. Of course, I would more than happy to share to you what drove me to create this blog.

It began a year or two that I wanted to cover on what's going on with Quantum's Q Power Station branch at the Power Plant Mall located at the Rockwell Center, Makati, Philippines. I wanted to start one already but I got lazy and just continued on with my life. I was playing Mushiking at that time as well. My initial drive was that there were so many great arcade titles appearing with recently released titles coming on schedule.

It was then that on July 26th, 2008, Quantum was having a field test for a new game from Bandai Namco called "Animal Kaiser." I was informed days ago from my boss who's in charge of the Mushiking Tournaments I host. I decided to pay a visit on that day and I was surprised that I met someone from Bandai Namco: Casey Ustunomiya!

The guy here is the Assistant Amanager of the International Sales Department and he's here along with two of his associates in doing some research on how well the game goes. I took this as a chance to ask a lot to questions and I got a lot of positive views, mostly his views on the Philippine Arcade Industry. If he asked if I had a blog, I only mentioned it was only an online gaming blog and there was the big drive for me to start this!

Well, I better save that Animal Kaiser experience for later. I better find a way to decorate this as well! :D Thanks for your time!
