Initial D Arcade Stage (イニシャルD アーケードステージ) (commonly referred to as IDAS, followed by the game's version number) is an arcaderacing game series developed by Sega, based on the anime and manga series Initial D. In the United States and Europe, the game series is simply known as Initial D.

Premise(edit)

In Initial D Arcade Stage, players race against different opponents through various mountain passes featured in the manga. Vehicles that are featured in the game are mostly Japanese cars, such as the Nissan Skyline GT-R, Mazda RX-7, Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, Honda Civic, as well as the Toyota AE86. Using the optional magnetic card system, players can save a customized car as well as their progress for future sessions; otherwise, their game progress is deleted. Players can continue growth with their cards on another Initial D cabinet of the same version. However, the card must be renewed every 50 plays.

Resuming from another version is subject to the following conditions:

There is no backward compatibility (i.e., a version 2 card cannot be used on version 1 machine).

Upgrading the card to a more recent machine is permanent.

When upgrading from one version to another, remaining plays will be carried over, and 50 plays will be credited to the card.

There are 13 games in the series; 9 for arcades and 3 for home consoles.

Game modes(edit)

Legend of the Streets

In the main story mode, players race with opponents from the manga with their opponents increasing in difficulty during the progression of the game. In the English versions of the game, until the release of Arcade Stage 4, their names are derived from the Tokyopop manga.

Time attack

Players race in a timed game to rank highest against other players at their current machine or online. From Arcade Stage Ver.2/Special Stage to Arcade Stage 6 AA, players could change stages' weather conditions. This feature was removed from Arcade Stage 7 AAX to Arcade Stage 8 Infinity.

Bunta Challenge

First started in Arcade Stage Ver.2 to Arcade Stage Ver.3/Street Stage the player races against Bunta Fujiwara, the legendary street racer in the Initial D series. Each time Bunta is defeated, the player will gain a level, and difficulty increases. In Arcade Stage Ver.3, the player loses 1000 points upon defeat. Regardless, the end credits still roll if you win or lose to Bunta. Bunta's car differs across levels, levels 1-6: AE86 Trueno, levels 7-11: AE86 Trueno w/TRD 20-Valve 4AGE Racing Engine levels 12-15: GC8V Subaru Impreza WRX STi Version V. This model was discontinued and removed in Arcade Stage 4/Extreme Stage. However, Bunta appeared as a final boss in Akina. It later returned in Arcade Stage 7 AAX (Only in Legend mode after clearing Rebirth mode).

Online Battle

This was introduced in Arcade Stage 4/Extreme Stage, this mode allowed players to race against others located in Japan and some areas Asia.(vague)

Racer's Event

Introduced in Arcade Stage 5 to Arcade Stage 8 Infinity. Only two modes are included in-game, such as online battle and time attack.

Tag Battle

Introduced in Arcade Stage 6 AA through to Arcade Stage 8 Infinity, this mode allows players in the same location to team up. One player drives uphill and the other downhill to race with rivals. Matches are made based on past racing results, pitting drivers with similar levels against each other. When there is a difference in the level with your tag partner, the stronger driver will match with a stronger driver and a weaker driver with a weaker driver. The team with the highest score wins.

Project Kanto's Fastest/Operation Kanto

First introduced in Arcade Stage 7 AAX, this mode is similar to tag battle mode, where players race against the rival characters based in the manga from Gunma to Kanagawa area. In races against Project D's Ace, courses are random. In Arcade Stage 8 Infinity, new rivals include Tohru and Atsuro in Momiji Line, Sakamoto and Wataru in Sadamine Rain, and The Lan Evo Teams in Tsuchisaka.

Japanese Version: February 21, 2007, English version: July 2007

It is also known in the updated version (Version 1.50) as Initial D Arcade Stage 4 Kai is the fourth release in the Initial D Arcade Stage series. Unlike the first three versions of the game, the game runs on the Sega Lindbergh hardware, uses a new card system, and features a new physics system. This arcade game also becomes the last game in Western before going to the next arcade game (Japanese language only). Only two new rivals such as God Hand and God Foot. Competitors from previous games such as Miki, the Tsucisaka Lan Evo team, Sakamoto, Nobuhiko Akiyama, and Tohru Suetsugu have been removed. New courses such as Lake Akina, Myogi (new layout with four sections), and Tsukuba Fruit Line. Some cars featured in previous games such as the Lancer Evolution VII and Toyota Celica have been removed.

Stage 5(edit)

Released on February 25, 2009 in Japan, Initial D Arcade Stage 5 was the second game in the series released on the Sega Lindbergh hardware. A few notable differences include massive physics changes. Compared to Arcade Stage 4/Extreme Stage, which used 'drifting' physics, Arcade Stage 5 featured more realistic driving physics, which included tire and brake wear down. Although the tire and brake wear are not displayed anywhere in the game, experienced players can notice the difference in the change in physics as they progress in races.

New characters that appeared for the first time in the game are Kobayakawa, Satoshi Omiya, Imposter Project D, Kai Kogashiwa (R.T. Katagiri S.V.), and Hideo Minagawa.New courses such as Happogahara, which used from Arcade Stage Ver.1 to Arcade Stage Ver.3/Street Stage (only daytime used is night) and only Extreme Stage appeared with full daytimes between day and night and Nagao, R.T. Katagiri S.V.'s home course.

Stage 6 AA(edit)

This version was released on March 3, 2011.

A new mode, Tag Battle, was introduced. Unlike its predecessor, it was released for the Sega RingEdge hardware for the first time. The game saw a change in its driving physics. Unlike Initial D Arcade Stage 5, a drift gauge and an updated tachometer were introduced to help inform players when they were drifting. The 'Legend of the Street' mode also introduced a 'Rolling Start' since the story mode in Initial D Special Stage. The tachometer now informed players whether or not their speed was below the gear range. Online network was extended to support regions in which earlier versions of the game was known to be popular in, finally achieving both nationwide and international matches. New cars and courses were added to the game through online updates without upgrade kits like IDAS4 1.5. The game also added a mileage system to show players their total driven mileage. Mileages could be used to redeem exclusive cars that were later available in updates. New characters that appeared for the first time in the game include Ryuji Ikeda, Hiroya Okuyama, Go Hojo, and Rin Hojo.(citation needed) New course such as Usui, which used from Arcade Stage Ver.1 to Arcade Stage Ver.3/Street Stage appeared with new layout, Tsubaki Line, Sadamine and Akina Snow, also appeared before in Arcade Stage Ver.3 which daytime is night change into the day.

Note: AA = Double Ace

Stage 7 AAX(edit)

Released for Sega RingEdge on November 28, 2012. Like its predecessor, the legend of the streets mode from Original and Another mode are the same as the previous one (Arcade Stage 6 A.A.) with Rebirth mode. The game is mostly a carry-over from Initial D Arcade Stage 6 A.A., including updates. New characters include Shinji Inui to complete the Sidewinder battles of Project D, also Arcade Stage Ver.2/Special Stage and Arcade Stage Ver.3/Street Stage characters such as Nobuhiko Akiyama (Rebirth), Sakamoto and Tohru Suetsugu (only in Legend) appeared in this game and rewind of Keisuke, from Project.D using Kyoko's F.D. New cars include the Toyota Sprinter Trueno 2door and the new Toyota 86 G.T. (to replace the FT-86 prototype from the previous game). A new class of vehicles is introduced in this game called 'Complete Cars.' These include pre-tuned cars from several tuning shops in Japan, such as RE Amemiya. Online battles now include tag battles, allowing two in-store machines linking together and with internet access to battle against two other players in tag battles. New courses such as Tsuchisaka, which previously used in Arcade Stage Ver.3/Street Stage also appeared and Nanamagari, Team Spiral's home course. In this game, there are three songs which also used from Arcade Stage Ver.3/Street Stage and only a song from Arcade Stage Ver.2/Special Stage with new songs. The ending theme of this game is Gamble Rumble (7th Stage Version) by m.o.v.e., the first theme remix of Initial D Third Stage, Arcade Stage Ver.2/Special Stage and Arcade Stage Ver.3.

Stage 8 Infinity(edit)

Having been released on July 17, 2014, like its predecessor, this game carries overall game modes from the previous version with a notable addition of Initial D Factory and D Coins. In Story Mode, the players can play the Team Side or Rival Side to see Driving Training Curriculum or what mission is for each story. The game added a new feature, '1 Day 1 Time Continue,' to allow players to have a free continue per day without inserting credits. New courses such as Momiji Line, for the first time in Special Stage, also appeared with new layout and Hakone, the place for a battle between Ryosuke's F.C. and Rin Hojo's R32. Arcade Stage Ver.3/Street Stage characters such as Miki, Atsuro Kawai, and The Lan Evo Teams also return. This is the last game with Japanese voice actors before Arcade Stage Zero, which does not feature voice anymore.

Stage Zero(edit)

Released for the Sega Nu2 arcade system board on March 7, 2017. Unlike its predecessors, this game now uses a 6-speed gear shifter (similar to the ones found in the Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune games) as opposed to the sequential ones. The character designs are taken from New Initial D the Movie with entirely new BGMs that are rock songs from the films such as Backdraft Smiths, Clutcho, The Hug Me, The Valves, and Gekkou Green. A small number of Eurobeat songs from previous games are also featured but have to be unlocked. Rain condition was removed as Movie featured no race in such condition.

As like Stage 4 (which arcade system board has changed too), a number of vehicles and tracks are unavailable upon launch, but later added back through free updates later in the year. Although most of the opponents are from New Initial D the Movie series, some rivals who didn't appear in the film such as Daiki Ninomiya, Kai Kogashiwa, Kyoichi Sudo, Kyoko Iwase, and Tomoyuki Tachi also appeared (with films' design). As well as Kanata Katagiri, protagonist of Initial D's sequel MFGHOST.

As collaboration which was used by Japanese Auto Magazine Hot Version (formerly known as Best Motoring), 'Gunma Cycle Sports Center', where the magazine's most Touge challenges was filmed at, is added along with four pre-tuned cars appeared in the challenges.

The Version 2 update was released on April 18, 2019, and featured Shun Aiba and NISMO GT-R's 2017 Model, which appeared in MFGHOST

Special Stage(edit)

Initial D Special Stage was released on June 26, 2003, for the PlayStation 2 and was re-released on February 26, 2004, under the 'PlayStation 2 the Best' label. Initial D Special Stage is based on Initial D Arcade Stage Ver.2 with additional Japanese voices for the first time and contains many features exclusive to this game. Initial D Special Stage is also the first home-console Initial D game published by Sega.

This version contains a story mode that allows the player to reenact racing scenes from the Initial D manga series (up to Vol. 25 at the time of publication), as well as several new courses then not seen in the arcade versions of the game. In one of these courses, Shomaru went on to appear in Initial D Arcade Stage Ver.3/Street Stage. Real Myogi was later added back in Initial D Arcade Stage 4/Extreme Stage. Momiji Line would not return until Initial D Arcade Stage 8 Infinity. Bunta's Challenge is noticeably absent in the game. Additional features, including replays for saved time-attack records and Iketani's car introduction.

Due to PlayStation 2's hardware limitations, the graphics of the game was downgraded from its arcade counterpart. The game is compatible with Logitech's Driving Force wheel series, and other wheel controllers made for PlayStation 2. Sega also balanced all the cars in-game due to the overpowering Integra DC2 from Initial D Arcade Stage Ver.2.

Street Stage(edit)

Initial D Street Stage is a PSP-exclusive game based on Initial D Arcade Stage Ver.3. This game features Dogfight by M.o.v.e. as its intro theme, which also used as the first opening theme of Initial D Fourth Stage. The legend of the street mode, which pits players against the rival characters are the same as the arcade game, but Akina (Snow) is removed, meaning the battle with Miki is also removed, although his theme can be found in the game's BGM files.

Initial D Extreme Stage(edit)

Initial D Extreme Stage is a PlayStation 3 game based on Initial D Arcade Stage 4.

[author’s note: Info ab the cars, Initial D, and other terminology in the 2nd author’s note. Not proofread :) ]

“Kiyoko, can you help me with this?” Kiyoko nodded, tying your halter top straps a little tighter and into a neater bow. When she finished, you turned around and thanked her, looking at yourself in the reflection of the window. It was the last Friday of the month, and upon tradition, you and your friends decided to go out. Akane begged everyone to go bowling. In all honestly, you thought bowling was extremely boring and you hated it because you sucked. But you came nonetheless because you wanted an excuse to wear cute clothes and hang out with your friends.

The bowling alley had a nicely sized arcade area that was almost the size of the bowling alley itself, and you couldn’t help but be drawn to it. So, after bowling and losing, you suggested you all spend some time in the arcade, to which everyone agreed. The arcade was dimly lit with neon lights that would change every so often, so as not to trigger any of their guests. It smelled of pizza grease and nachos, with the faint aroma of cola. You felt like a child all over again, running around at some arcade with your parents running after you, scolding you to stay by their side.

All your friends decided to scatter. You looked around for a game to play when you heard a familiar Eurobeat song. Stopping in your tracks, you turned your head slowly to see a classic arcade game: Initial D Stage Version 8 Infinity 2. Sure, this probably wasn’t the very first Initial D game out there, but the franchise was a classic that greatly influenced vine culture in 2016. It was great. You sat down slowly, holding in your breath. You felt like you were in front of a pile of treasure and you swore you could hear a chorus or something.

“Choose your car!” The announcer’s enthusiastic voice broke you out of your trance. You looked through the handful of cars they had. They had the classic Fujiwara Tofu Trueno, the yellow Twin-Turbo FD, the Turbo II FC, and so on. You opted for the Turbo II because of your massive childhood crush on the character who owned it.

“Choose your course!” The announcer spoke over the upbeat music. You thought carefully, looking that the courses. Some of them had hairpin turns and extreme uphills and downhills. Some had narrow roads and were shown having heavy rain, meaning that it would be slippery. Maybe you were thinking a little too hard at this because you hadn’t noticed the blonde sitting next to you.

“Thinking real hard there pretty girl,” he said. You found his slight accent cute.

“Huh? Yeah well, I wanna make sure I win,” was all you said. There was something handsome about him, but the fact that he blatantly flirted with you by calling you pretty made you want to play dumb at his advances. Playing hard to get, if you will.

“Let me join, yeah?” His body was turned to you, silver chain dangling deliciously from his neck.

“Hard pass,” you said, putting your hand up to block his face.

“Come on,” he whined a little and you couldn’t help but think about how pretty he looked as he whined, fists flailing a little and feet tapping the floor. And his voice? Lord have mercy you’re bout to bust–

“Hmm,” you pretended to ponder, hoping he’d get the hint and say something.

“Okay, how about…we race each other and the loser has to buy the other a slice of pizza?” The beautiful stranger offered.

“Oh come on pretty boy,” you returned the compliment, “how about, if I win, you do whatever I tell you for the rest of the night and if you win, then…I’ll buy you a slice of pizza.” You pressed your pointer into your temple, thinking.

“What? No way! If I win ya have ta go on a date with me!”

“Deal,” you shrugged.

The stranger didn’t think you’d agree to go on a date with him if he won so quickly. In fact, you were so quick to respond that he could have sworn that you responded before he even asked.

“Names y/n by the way. I want you to remember the name of the girl who left your ass in the dust,” You held out your hand for him to shake.

“Atsumu. And that’s rich coming from a girl who sucks at bowling,” he chuckled, choosing the Twin Turbo FD. You didn’t know how to explain it but somehow you knew he would choose this car. It just seemed to scream his name.

“H-Hey bowling has nothing to do with this!” You turned your head back to the screen and chose Mt. Akina as the destination. There weren’t too many straights so you knew you could lose Atsumu in the turns, and it was, again, the main character’s home turf so you had to choose it.

As the two of you raced, you found yourself feeling stupid for underestimating your opponent. He was actually good at this game and had pretty good techniques. Atsumu on the other hand wasn’t focusing on the game at all and constantly glanced at you. He found it hot that you were so invested in this racing game. How you talked so highly of yourself and how you were concentrating so hard to beat him. You had a little spunk in you and he liked that you weren’t the one swooning over him.

During the second checkpoint, your friends and a group of guys, whom you assumed were his friends, formed a circle around the two of you.

“Beat his ass y/n!” “You got this!” “Come on! You can’t lose twice tonight!” your friends cheered you on.

“Tsumu ya gotta win this one! For me!!” “He’s so close to winning,” his friends cheered him on.

After completing the four consecutive hairpin turns, you found yourself at the last checkpoint. You were hot on Atsumu’s tail and were close to pulling up beside him. How the fuck is she still behind me? I drifted so well back there and she’s just about eating my ass right now!! Atsumu cursed inside his head.

The music seemed to speed up, the heat rushed to Atsumu’s cheeks and his heart pounded furiously in his chest. He was sweating profusely while you were just taking your sweet little time. You looked like you were panicking before, but now, you were calm. What were you thinking? What was going on inside your head? Atsumu dreaded the thought of whatever you may have him do if you won, and even more so the thought of possibly never seeing you again.

At the last second, you passed him and crossed the finish line first, causing your friends to scream and cheer your name while Atsumu’s friends groaned. He hung his head down low, shame enveloping his defeated form as his friends muttered things like, “can’t believe ya lost,” and “all that big talk of winning her heart only to lose in a race.” You thought it was funny and a little cute how his shoulders slumped.

“What do ya want? Yer wish is my command,” Atsumu groaned. The group silenced but burst out in a fit of laughter after realizing what our bet was.

“Hmm, give me your number and take me on a date some time,” was all you said. A chorus of oohs and ahhs was heard.

“R-really?” Atsumu had never looked up so fast in his life. He felt like he broke his neck.

“Yeah, you’re cute,” you shrugged.

“It’s only 11! Let’s go out right now! Samu, take my things home will ya?” His twin, whom you’d just now realized was there, nodded, sending you a knowing smirk. You averted his gaze. Before you could say anything, Atsumu was opening his car door for you and driving away.

The car you chose (don't judge me I had the p h a t t e s t crush on Ryosuke when I was a kid):

The car Atsumu chose (as much as I liked Ryosuke, I had an even P H A T T E R crush on Keisuke, aka the owner of this yellow car):
