| CaptainExplosion said: I've noticed that, possibly due to the influx of mobile gaming and improvements in console gaming, the video arcade scene seems to have almost withered away. What should be done to revive people's interest in video arcades? Do developers need to experiment with new technologies for gaming? Make games that are more attractive to today's consumers? New kinds of games not seen before? What are your thoughts on the matter? |
Arcades have been dying since the mid-to-late 90's. But thanks for heading down to the lab and busting this case wide open..............................................................I kid, but seriously, you are just noticing this? They have been effectively dead for several years. My city had 100,000+ fewer people in it during the arcade heydays, at which point there were 6 of them. Now, with over 100,000 more people, there is one, and it's a shell of what a true arcade used to be. A revival is not happening.
