But so many arcade games depend on specific and unique control inputs.

When they talk about using the arcades outside hours, perhaps they are going to sell the processing power and make extra revenue.

Sega putting out two things, mostly Japanese focused...

Can't say I'm surprised, but at the same time I should have expected this level of disappointment.

After the deal they did with EGS, and these two announcements, I feel like Sega's taken multiple steps backward.



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"

Those who were expecting MS to buy Sega were crazy.
Expect to buy Tencent next time.

Well, okay I guess. Can’t say I was expecting to be blown away.

I think if they had changed their name to "SEGA Malcom X": that would have been global bombshell.
No more pandemic news... everybody would be talking SEGA Malcom X, even your grandmother.
But it's just Fog Arcades, nobody cares, sounds un-necessarily dangerous with pandemic and all...

Would actually have been interesting for me if I lived in Japan.

On the other hand, maybe this could lead to a revivial of arcades? If they are not used locally the games would then be getting streamed instead. I loved arcades back then, an I really miss them these days, would be nice if they could make a comeback with this.

Edit: This would also be perfect for their name. After all, SEGA stands for SErvice GAmes...

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
