Arcade Update: New Initial D game released in Japan

http://youtu.be/q2Fhv_E2m-E

Sega’s other-other-other great racing series is getting an update in a Japanese arcade not-so-near-you! The latest entry in the legendary Initial D series is being released this week. If the above trailer is any indicator, techno music is going to occur.

For those of you not in the know, the Initial D racers focus less on the horse power and more on driving strategically; skills like drifting and braking are as important (and often more important) than the sheer horse power your car might have.

Sadly, although this series of games used to make it outside of Japan fairly reliably, it has been a long time since I have seen this game or any of its updates in the arcades. If any of you Sega Addicts are lucky enough to either be in Japan or have an awesome arcade near you, be sure to drop a few words in the comments and let us know how it has turned out!
