Many of NAs top players frequented this arcade. However, as we all already know video arcades began to die down during the early 2000s and China Town Fair was no exeception having closed in 2011. + +Then it re-opened under new management and became a complete shell of its former self. These days its pretty much all redemption slop in there. Very few actual "games" in there; there's a DDR A3 cab, PIU, a singular jubeat with a broken audio mod, a fully broken down SDVX Nemsys, and 3 Wangan 5DX+ (not sure what happened to the 4th one). + +{{< figure src="inside-ctf.webp" alt="China Town Fair Inside" >}} + +Anyways, its pretty tiny in there and feels like its not doing amazing. A single credit for jubeat was like 3-4 USD I think, and one of the machines to reload cards was fully broken down (tbh just go to Round1 and play). + +If you want some actual rhythm games though, walk like 6 minutes and the newly opened "Akiba House" store has private networked maimai DX, WACCA (modded), and CHUNITHM. + +{{< figure src="gloves.webp" alt="Chinese maimai gloves" width="300" >}} + +Also I was absolutely not ready for the New York winter temps. Thankfully I always keep my rhythm game gloves on me which saved my hands from freezing. diff --git a/indieweb-micro/content/posts/china-town-fair/inside-ctf.webp b/indieweb-micro/content/posts/china-town-fair/inside-ctf.webp new file mode 100644 index 0000000..d08d15f Binary files /dev/null and b/indieweb-micro/content/posts/china-town-fair/inside-ctf.webp differ diff --git a/indieweb-micro/content/posts/china-town-fair/outside-ctf.webp b/indieweb-micro/content/posts/china-town-fair/outside-ctf.webp new file mode 100644 index 0000000..aacc4e2 Binary files /dev/null and b/indieweb-micro/content/posts/china-town-fair/outside-ctf.webp differ diff --git a/indieweb-micro/prep-images.sh b/indieweb-micro/prep-images.sh new file mode 100755 index 0000000..e478348 --- /dev/null +++ b/indieweb-micro/prep-images.sh @@ -0,0 +1,38 @@ +#!/usr/bin/env bash + +# Usage: +# ./overwrite-to-webp.sh /path/to/folder jpg +# +# Arguments: +# 1 = folder containing images +# 2 = file extension to convert (jpg, jpeg, png, etc.) + +SRC_DIR="$1" +EXT="$2" + +if [ -z "$SRC_DIR" ] || [ -z "$EXT" ]; then + echo "Usage: $0 " + echo "Example: ./overwrite-to-webp.sh ./photos jpg" + exit 1 +fi + +for file in "$SRC_DIR"/*."$EXT"; do + [ -e "$file" ] || continue + + filename=$(basename "$file") + name="${filename%.*}" + newfile="$SRC_DIR/$name.webp" + + echo "Converting: $filename → $name.webp" + + # Convert to WebP (lossy quality ~80) + ffmpeg -i "$file" \ + -compression_level 6 \ + -quality 80 \ + "$newfile" -y + + # Delete original file + rm -f "$file" +done + +echo "Done!
