Traditional arcades, are dead. I had a local one in town, tiny little dive, playing games from the 80's, but it was fun going there to just mess around. Now gone, replaced by a book store. Oh, the irony.
But, arcade machines still have a life. There are still many family oriented restaurants that offer a robust selection of arcade machines. Amusement parks will have them. Basically anywhere there will be kids of all ages.
But the days of a 100% pure arcade place, where the only food was what you brought in or some Fritos from the machine ... gone. I'm sure there are still a few standing, but their time is limited.
Maybe we should all pitch in, and come up with a new model for Arcade gaming. Instead of pumping quarters into a machine, everyone pays a certain amount for all day access? Different packages and prices. Hot chick Fridays, where they all get in for free. It could work!
