Possibly. The US fake e-Amuse received a cease & desist order over the weekend and the very next day Konami made this announcement. We really don't know any details yet. This is very likely something Konami will charge arcade owners to use so I highly doubt the average arcade owner wants to hook their machines up to e-Amuse especially if it costs money. That's all assuming Konami is going to allow the US to join e-Amuse, they're very vague in this announcement.
