Alright peoples within the vicinity of the greater Chicago area, prepare yourselves, it's coming:

Ryan Monahan (arcade tech from Brunswick Zone in Naperville, IL) from ry19.com wrote:IIDX Gold: Yesterday I spoke with Naoki Okada, VP of Amusement Business Division for Konami, and he confirmed that the IIDX Gold will be tested at Brunswick Zone of Naperville in early March. He informed me that the game will be made available to the public for testing on Monday March 5th, 2007. I was not informed of the official end date for this test, I will have to post an update with that information at a later date. Previously they informed me the period will last about two weeks. After the two week test period the machine will be sent to the ASI show in Vegas!

DarkTetsuya in the News Article wrote:if this US version resembles anything close to the recently released Japanese version of GOLD, then I predict they'll be getting a lot of positive feedback from the fans. No word though, on how long this test will last, or if it will change locations again.

I'm sure that this version will be a straight-from-japan, no changes made, plain old GOLD RokeTesu. (Location Test, for those not in the know.)

[edit]
And I'm sure the actual US version, assuming we do get our own release, will be quite different.

Sad though, I want eAmuse or something like it

.

FWIW, more things need to use USB key drives like ITG did. GREAT application of an easy technology right there.

edited the 1st post, as I just read on AIJ that the machine arrived and was setup earlier today! I haven't heard about any videos yet but there was a brief photo gallery of the machine coming to life slowly but surely... so hopefully more media will surface soon.

*drool*

Hopefully someone around me gets it when (if) it is released in the states.

Stupid California. I'm getting to go down to Sunnyvale Golfland in late May. The bemani scene sucks in Oregon.
