i'm surprised it hasn't been mentioned already, but funland in trocadero has closed down. so as far as i know mt3 is still at game zone round the corner and namco station. dunno if there are any other arcades that have any machine, although i heard that mt4 is in a small arcade in knightsbridge? or somewhere. heard it was in one of troc's store rooms but may have been moved there. can anyone comfirm this?

I'll join in. I've been playing WMMT3 on and off for a couple of years now. I'd play a lot more if I had a regular place to get a game, ideally with cards. I doubt there's a cab anywhere in Notts that has 'em though. so I only get a game when I make a road trip out of it.

If anyone knows a location with cards that I can visit within reasonable range of my home base (as stated) I'd be so happy. A location without cards would be fine too, but I wanna start a new car at some point. I've got several cards on the go right now - two Skylines and an Evo. The second Skyline was a card someone gave me which had only a couple of races on it when I thought my original Skyline card was going to expire in an arcade that had no cards. I've since been able to renew that original Skyline, and the next time I get a card I want it to be a car I haven't used yet. Maybe a Z or an Impreza.

anybody still playing?

got a favour that I'll like to ask of, but wondering if there's any1 whom might be able to help me out.

got a few WMMT 2 cards that I'll like to transfer to WMMT 3. wondering if there are any machines that may still be working. if there's any kind souls who might be able to help me out to transfer after confirming the availability of working WMMT 3 machines, please notify me via PM so that I could discuss the details with you further.

TIA

Just a heads up, they've removed two cabs (What used to be 1+2) from the Trafford Centre now, so there's only the cabs that were on the right, they've moved the GRID machine over to where 1+2 used to be.

Oh and there's two cabs now in the Manchester Metropolitan University's student union bar, but the card machines are down, the left cab controls the brake pedal on the right cab and the right cab's brake pedal doesn't work.

In london there's only 2 places I know of that has mt3, that's namco station and las vegas. There's a rumor that, if it's possible, mt5 might make it to las vegas, but that's a massive 'if'. chances are we might not get anything past mt3. we still haven't got 3dx, 3dx+ or mt4.

But yeah, I still play. just 2 races though to see who's on my revenge list, one on my r2 and the other on my z33.

Ye, as stated before, there are currently only 2 locations in London to play WMMT. And those are Namco Funscape (County Hall, in front of London Eye) and Las Vegas Arcade in Soho (close to Piccadilly Circus tube station).
Both of them have 4-linked WMMT3 cabinets in good shape (card readers working fine), but since it's closer to where I live, I usually spend my Saturday afternoon at Las Vegas Arcade. So if someone still plays we can meet sometimes.

The comp was pretty cool. Being the first on at LV there'll be tweaks and changes until it's just right. Here's a 'trailer' for it, and the event itself.

Just a heads up -

The TA times on the cabs at Trafford Centre have mysteriously been reset. So have fun if you're going down there. Also the left cab now has issues staying in fifth gear (You need to be gentle with it) and the right cab accelerator pedal is wobbly.

Oh, there's also new cards in the machines. Hopefully one day I can come down to London and get wrecked by you guys at LV! smile.gif

Well that IS the official fanpage, though whether they are serious about the US/UK thing is another issue.

And official or not, since AFAIK you folks never got 3DX or 3DX+ there's another problem associated with an UK release of MT4... namely transferral. Unless they make an exception (which I doubt), you won't be able to transfer ANYTHING and will have to start from scratch.

On the contrary.... as of just a few hours ago, it's confirmed that Las Vegas Arcade in Soho London, will be upgrading to 3DX next month, and swiftly to 3DX+ a few months later to allow people to go through the 3 > 3DX > 3DX+ transfer route!

They've now removed the WMMT3 cabs from Trafford Centre, supposedly sold to somewhere in Newcastle.

The only remaining cabs in Manchester are the ones in the Manchester Metropolitan University Student Union, where the card readers don't work. Safe to say MT3 is dead in Manchester for the time being ;_;.

Will have to pay a visit to London soon then!
