- johnwalkr 4y agoThese were never common, but as the article mentions, they were in a few metro stations about 12 years ago. I knew of one Sega arcade with them in Akihabara, but it didn't survive COVID. Haven't seen any in about 3 years. They were pretty funny, and only based on pressure x time. One game had you playing as a barista filling up coffee decanters as fast as possible. Far-fetched enough that it was just funny. Another game had you playing as weather during a storm, and on the screen was a female weather reporter, with the objective being to blow her skirt higher and higher. Not exactly aging well.
