Ddr machines aren't that extinct here, especially with the DDR A location test here (and some possible good news in the future) but pump machines definitely are. For context, there's about 250 known DDR machines in the UK (at least according to Ziv) but only about 5 known PIU machines. At least every arcade here will have a euromix 1 or 2 because they're cheap and easy to replace if they break down, where as with pump it isn't quite so easy, probably due to lack of knowledge and price.

Despite the large amount of DDR machines here though, I'd say that at only 1/3 of them are in good condition, because most of the time arcade operators will only fix them if it's broken, not if the pads are a bit rubbish. Also if you want any mix newer then supernova then good luck, bar the DDR A cab we have here, almost all newer cabs i've played were terrible. Either crappy DDR X's with rubbish pads, or DDR X2's with sync issues.
