We\u2019re on the last day of the second quarter of 2026, which means it\u2019s time to wrap up the news of the month. We saw several games that made their first appearance at Amusement Expo 2026, but thanks to several global factors causing the prices of components and things like plastics to skyrocket, this caused several delays on games that were supposed to ship out last month, so there are sadly a few less than expected.<\/p>\n

As an additional note, International Bowl Expo 2026<\/a> got started in Nashville, TN on Sunday, although the trade show portion doesn\u2019t start until tomorrow. We\u2019ll share any relevant updates we get from that in a separate post. Some (but not all) companies we\u2019ll talk about below are attending the show<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s get you up to speed now as we move into July:<\/p>\n

On Test: Jubeat & Crazy Bazooka (Konami)<\/h3>\n

In case you were wondering whether or not the return of Konami to the USA was serious or not, well these two games on test should be a good indicator of that. It\u2019s too bad that they aren\u2019t calling Jubeat something with a subtitle or \u201cNew Jubeat\u201d or something along those lines to help distinguish it from the original (which just forces us to rename the original with something like \u201cJubeat 2008\u201d or \u201coriginal Jubeat\u201d anyways). Two units are on test at the Round1USA Puente Hills Mall location in California. I still think that the top bezel should expand to cover the whole screen, but outside that, it will be interesting to see how this does over here. Here\u2019s a little footage from a recent test of the game in Japan.<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Jubeat<\/p>\n

Then\u00a0Crazy Bazooka<\/em> is a completely new design that was also announced as testing<\/a> at Round1. Using a bazooka as a controller is a rare sight in arcades, particularly one of this size. This appears to be another videmption game that Konami is trying out where you blast different targets for points & tickets. Judging by the images on the screen there, I would guess that the more of a building you destroy\/bowling pins you knock over\/UFO crane things you hit, the more tickets you get.<\/p>\n

Out Now: Typhoon Shockwave<\/h3>\n

For at least one title that is already out there, Triotech has recently begun shipping their latest iteration of the Typhoon dual seat motion system, although I haven\u2019t been able to confirm exactly when this started shipping out or a price. This one is the biggest Typhoon yet, featuring cinematic & colorful graphics displayed across two giant monitors. There are six new virtual coaster rides that it comes with, each lasting around three minutes or so. Has anyone seen this out \u201cin the wild\u201d yet?<\/p>\n
