I'm new to the forum and a newbie to getting arcade games, but was hoping someone would be able to give me some advice. I've been looking at the Konami Police 911 game to get for my basement. I remember playing it and thought it would be good to get again. However, I don't remember the difference between the 911 and the 911 2 version. Any one have any thoughts on which is better to get? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
 
I have the second one...

If you are still thinking about getting the second one, I have mine for sale... a quick sale. It's in awesome condition, love it, just have to part with it.

Here is a breakdown from wikipedia of the difference:

Police 911 2

Note: This game is called "Police 24/7 2" in Europe, and "The Keisatsukan 2: Senkoku Okitaiseki Supesharu" in Asia.
The game was released one year after the release of Police 911. The game takes place exclusively in Japan and players can choose 6 cities—Osaka, Hakata, Shinjuku, Kobe, Nagoya, and Sapporo. The first stage takes place in the scene of the crime and the following stage takes place in a shortened version of the usual city stage. The rest of the game takes place in normal stages before the player has to return back to Osaka to arrest the remaining criminals.
Police 911 2 expands the original police officer role to four different characters. They can choose from a Tokyo police officer (male or female), a detective from the Metro Police, or an SAT trooper, each carrying different handguns (5-round revolver, 8-round Glock, 12-round HK MP5). In the overseas version, the police woman and the detective are male and female American Interpol Operatives holding 8-round glocks.
[edit]Story
Japanese mafia crimes are growing rapidly and rigidly as the Japanese government ordered a nationwide arrest plan (Senkoku Okitaiseki) throughout the whole nation to arrest all involved criminals. Criminal activity has increased by order of the infamous Japanese mafia Gokudo-kai. The growth of mafia crimes are rising at record levels due to a collaboration with a Hong Kong mafia group called Ryuuto (龍頭?) (Dragonhead in English). Finally, a mysterious kingpin is hiding behind-the-scenes to ensure that Japan falls down to the hands of the Gokudo-kai and the Ryuuto.
Players start the investigation inside an office building where a collaboration deal is taking place between the Gokudo-kai and the Dragonheads. After arresting the first wave of criminals, nationwide arrest warrants have been issued for the capture of the following suspects holed in Osaka, Hakata, Shinjuku, Kobe, Nagoya, and Sapporo: Ko Bun Yuen (高 浜元?), Koji Umezawa (梅沢 幸治 Umezawa Koji?), Tadanobu Abe (阿部 忠信 Abe Tadanobu?), Ku Ka Hang (古 家亙)?), Koji Motomura (sometimes mistranslated as Hiroshi Motomura; 本村 弘司 Motomura Koji), Sadaharu Kitaya (sometimes mistranslated as Sadaharu Kitadani; 北谷 貞治 Kitaya Sadaharu), and Hung Ko Cheung (熊 谷章). Arresting 3 behind-the-scene criminals throughout the game gives players a chance to capture the behind-the-scenes kingpin, Shigenobu Matsuyama.
[edit]Additional note

A curious yet amusing visual technique in the game can be observed when facing the various bosses; when seen in close-up, their faces are blurred with mosaics, and a mug shot of the individual boss has the eyes concealed with a black bar, despite their names still visible. The reason for this is to give an "authentic television feel" to the affair; Japanese television, when showing televised images of suspected criminals (such as on the news), will obscure the suspect's face for privacy purposes. The same goes for photographs of the person, hence the black bar.
