Sega’s premier video racing game Daytona Championship USA is rolling out to arcades all over the world and operators are reporting top earnings for the game.

Justin Burke, general manager at Sega, said: “The demand for Daytona is phenomenal. We’ve already shipped a huge number of games and have an even bigger list on back order expected to ship as fast as we can build them. In fact, we have dedicated two factories, one in UK and the other in the US, to increase our production output.”
Mitch Tuby, from Pleasureland Amusements in the UK, received his Daytona Championship USA recently and he says it’s “just like the old game but better: finally a driving game that the industry has been waiting for. It’s a great machine to have in the arcade.”
Reaction in the US has been the equally positive. Rich Listash from Player One Amusement Group said: “The new Daytona by Sega is awesome; the force feedback steering really captured the feeling of the original Daytona with updated graphics from today’s technology.”
Hailed as the ultimate arcade racer, Daytona boasts a bold cabinet design and innovative new features that impress players and operators. The fast 60 frames per second racing action takes place on a massive 47ins LED high definition screen.
