Every maimai DX Location in Canada (2026)

Short answer: as of October 2026, SEGA’s official ALL.Net location tracker lists about 120 maimai DX locations across North America – and only 9 of them are in Canada. There is no Round1 in Canada at all. Here is every Canadian location, by province, plus what to do if none of them is near you.

Lineups change: cabinets get moved, venues close, versions get updated. Always double-check SEGA’s official locator before a long drive.

British Columbia (1)

  • The Rec Room – Burnaby. The only listed maimai DX in BC, inside the Rec Room entertainment centre at The Amazing Brentwood. If you are in Metro Vancouver, this is your machine.

Ontario (4)

  • Playdium – Vaughan. The big GTA arcade at Vaughan Mills; the most accessible cabinet for most of the Toronto area.
  • GameTime Social – Concord. Also in Vaughan, a second GTA option a short drive from Playdium.
  • Game Time Social – Burlington. The western GTA / Hamilton-area option.
  • Waterloo Rhythm – Waterloo. The Kitchener-Waterloo region’s listed cabinet – notable because KW has a real rhythm game community around the universities.

Quebec (4)

  • Funhub – Montreal. Montreal’s listed maimai DX.
  • Claw Planet – Plateau (Montreal). A second Montreal location, in the Plateau area.
  • Claw Planet – Laval. For the north shore suburbs.
  • Amusement 2020 – Brossard. The south shore option.

Everywhere else in Canada: nothing (yet)

Alberta, the Prairies, Atlantic Canada and the territories have zero listed maimai DX cabinets. And in the Windsor-Essex area – where we are based – the nearest listed machine is across the border: Round1 at Great Lakes Crossing in Auburn Hills, Michigan, roughly an hour away including the border crossing. Round1 operates around 60 maimai locations in the US and continues to expand there, but as of this writing it has no Canadian presence and no announced Canadian openings.

Why so many Canadian players are going home-setup

Nine cabinets for the second-largest country on Earth is not a scene, it is a treasure hunt. That is why the Canadian maimai community skews heavily toward home controllers: when the arcade is a day trip, a controller on your desk stops being a luxury and becomes the only reliable way to play. We wrote a full breakdown of the options – importing, DIY, and locally built – in our guide: How to Play maimai at Home in North America.

If you do make the trip to one of the nine, be a good ambassador: these venues stock a niche Japanese cabinet because local players show up. Play, spend, and tell the staff you came for maimai. It is how the list grows.

This list is compiled from SEGA’s official location tracker as of October 2026 and will be reviewed monthly. Spotted a new Canadian cabinet, or one that is gone? Tell us at hello@otogegarage.com and we will update the list.
