Initial D Arcade Stage Zero

Initial D Arcade Stage Zero is the first major Arcade entry in the Initial D Arcade Stage' series outside of the mainline, concluded by Initial D Arcade Stage 8 Infinity in 2014. This game is based on the New Initial D films, using no voice dialogue or cut-scenes (unlike previous games). There are also new character designs and different music corresponding to the films' content (typically J-Rock, instead of Eurobeat tracks). The major new game mechanic added is the ability to join teams with other players. Like Initial D Arcade Stage 4, the cabinet and hardware are completely overhauled, most notably now using a 6-speed H shifter instead of the sequential shifter seen in previous machines.
