Background

Tsunami Visual Technologies, Inc. was an American video game and amusement company based in Fremont, CA. Created in 1997, it specialized in motion simulator-based amusement machines. In mid-2001, Tsunami came out with its best-known TsuMo Multi-Game Motion System, a Windows 98-based arcade machine that allowed for multiple games, as well as ride simulations based on real-life rollercoaster rides, to be installed on the cabinet as-so desired. Tsunami also worked on a traditional arcade game known as Gone Fishing (co-developed with Toronto's JVL Corporation), and also helped bring Acclaim Entertainment's Re-Volt to the arcades on September 24, 2004. Tsunami has also licensed its motion technology for use in deluxe variations of third-party games, including Raw Thrills' The Fast and the Furious and Global VR's Need for Speed Underground and EA SPORTS NASCAR Racing. Tsunami was ultimately deactivated in the early 2010s, after seeing no activity since licensing its motion system for the aforementioned third-party titles.
