Note the “Value Line” of games at ASI’s booth. Some of Wahlap’s other games that you’ll see here include Clutch Shoot, Fantastic Train, and Go Hero of Robots.Īs I look through my videos, I don’t have enough footage of Sky Riders DX nor Racing Car NOS to highlight them separately below I did film the standard version of Sky Riders at Amusement Expo earlier this year Racing Car is a lot like Hot Wheels without that licensing. They had a smaller layout than Wahlap did, but they managed to pack it corner to corner with games, while somehow managing some table space in the center. One reason why ASI didn’t have all of those Wahlap games at their booth was space. The Amusement Source International IAAPA 2023 Booth It’s a little unusual but if you’re looking for something different for your arcade, this certainly fits that bill. Players take control of a ball shooter that will continuously fire small white pellets and your goal is to knock the green and red balls into your opponent’s goal. Thanks to Nick at Arcade Hunters for remind about that connection. 🙂Ĭarried by ASI, Thunderbolt Shot hearkens back to the Crossfire board game (and prototype Atari arcade game) of old. That’s why I’m bundling the two companies here. Several of Wahlap’s other titles that you see here, including Wawa Show, Karate Chop, Thunderbolt Shot, Puzzle Monsters, and Skip Time, are all available in the US via ASI. Since I already covered that game in the LAI games recap, I won’t overfocus on it here. Starting with Wahlap, they did have their own booth at the show, which had Asphalt Moto Blitz DX as a headliner.

IAAPA 2023: Coastal Amusements Recap The Wahlap IAAPA 2023 Booth IAAPA 2023: Pinball (Stern, Jersey Jack, American, Chicago Gaming) In case you missed/overlooked previous recaps: Wahlap is an advertiser here at Arcade Heroes, as you might have noticed from their ad on the sidebar.įor ASI, they are led by Cory Haynes, and they also work with companies such as Ace Amusement and Nitto Game to bring certain games to the US. Some Wahlap games are also sold via LAI Games and Sega Amusements. I need to stress that they are NOT the same company but ASI carries a lot more Wahlap product than anyone else at present. Wahlap is based in Guangzhou, China, while ASI is setup in Texas. The next company to receive our IAAPA 2023 focus is on Wahlap and Amusement Source International.
