You asked for it, you've got it.
As has already been revealed, Capcom's U.S. office is mostly that--an office, but there are definitely a few unusual bits I thought I'd share after seeing that some people are curious (forgive the yellow-izing phone cam!): To start at the beginning, here's what we look like from the outside. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ Inside the inner sanctum. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ The receptionist's desk! (sans receptionist at the moment) http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ A small sampling of the acres and acres of awards that Capcom games have won. Also a small, caged robot. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ One of our game demo rooms. Icy air-conditioning, 50" plasma, blackout shades, and surprisingly uncomfortable couches. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ Here's the sign I consult when I forget where it is that I work. Also there's a mysterious hammer and a button beneath it. I don't know what this does, nor does anyone else seem to. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ Retinal scan and sonic passkey security system. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ If you can get past the tight security, things inside can get more relaxed quickly. Here's blogger extraordinaire Brian Dunn breaking all kinds of health codes by running around barefoot. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ His feet are hurting from a bad case of frostbite after spending time in our "Danger Room"-style Lost Planet simulator. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ A Lego recreation of the "Hardballer" VS from Lost Planet. Sitting atop the Hardballer is the head from an extremely creepy, extremely old Mega Man costume. The eyes follow you, and so does the smell. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ A small pyramid of the new promotional Poogie plushes from Monster Hunter Freedom 2. They are practicing to form Poogie Voltron which will take revenge on us all. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ Laili with her giant sack of obviously less talented Poogies. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ The best "meeting room" in the office, featuring reclining, full-body iJoy massage chairs (beware the "percussion" setting). http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ Randy and Kevin, checking out the new build of Zack and Wiki in Long's cube. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ My old EVO Street Fighter banner (and my unpopular Flavia machine). http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ Part of Rey's (producer of Super Street Fighter II Turbo: HD Remix, among others) collection of Street Fighter toys. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ Sven's office. As you can see, when he's not answering your questions or playing games, he's all business! http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ Roots! An original marquee from the Section Z arcade game. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ Parts 1, 2, and 3 of Francis's toy wonderland. His office is an extension of his garage at home, which is filled to the brim with toy-ful goodness. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ Nique (aka qchan) settling into his new digs at Capcom. He really looks like he cares about what you think, doesn't he? I think it's because, contra to my advice, he actually does. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ Part of Darin's vast Capcom game archive, including the games themselves, as well as strategy guides and more. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ One of the more "creative" awards that we've kept around through the years. http://www.flickr.com/photos/capcomlost … 598070946/ xo, Seth

by the way, does Capcom US keep a copy of every Capcom game ever released in US? or most of them?

Good work Seth :)
Can't believe you have retinal scanners though! |

Some of them. All of the new games, we have have, but sadly, a lot of the older ones are MIA.
