Trivia

 * ACS means "Amazing Creations", which was the company's old name during its early days from 1984 to 1988.
 * The company's slogan is "Come Join the Fun!", which appears in various ACS-related products.
 * In ACS arcade games starting with Sentoki: The Strongest Warrior, the words usually flash on the top left or right corner of the screen, when the player side is left with a credit (or a controller) and unattended (e.g. PRESS P2 START BUTTON/COME JOIN THE FUN!)
 * ACS-related anouncements are usually appeneded with the words "ACS: COME JOIN THE FUN! ;)", usually near the end.
 * ACS' CEO Katsuyuki Tabata used to be best friends with In-Verse's owner Pauly-kun. This strong bond carried on for years until December of 2016, when In-Verse had filed for bankrupcy.
 * Though not the first arcade system to run using PC hardware (Andamiro's MK3 Hardware, known for its use in the first few Pump it Up games, predates it by a year), ACS' System 200 was the one which popularized the use of PC-based hardware on an arcade system. Later PC-based arcade boards include the Namco N2 and Taito's Type X series.
 * ACS has its own proprietary online arcade service in the form of Amaze.net. Like Konami's e-AMUSEMENT service, Amaze.net uses specialized cards that store the player's data in order to access special online-based services, from Internet rankings, to Amaze.net-exclusive offers, like exclusive customization options in the Sentoki games, or exclusive songs in To the Beat and DrumMaster/GuitarMaster.
 * The first ACS title to use Amaze.net is Sentoki 3, released in 2003, ans since then, Amaze.net has been used for most of ACS' major arcade titles.
 * ACS' least well-recieved game is 2008's Legendary Blades: Ressurection, which was lambasted for its poor gameplay implementations, dated graphics and a controversy surrounding one of the characters that caused the game to be pulled out of stores and rerelased to remove the offensive imagery.
