Bigger & better killed the arcades, I think. Cabinets got expensive, so arcade owners jacked up the price to play; one could play a very close approximation on home console for far cheaper.
I also think there's a link between arcades closing and Dreamcast dying. At that time gamers were really getting into the idea of deep long games, not arcade style at all.
