Some theaters removing more arcade games

Re: Some theaters removing more arcade games

....or someone could just be smart and open a retro arcade, with nothing but games from the golden era (early 80's) up until the early 90's, when the rapid decline came.

I think it would be pretty cool to be able to walk in and see nothing but Pac Man, Asteroids, Paperboy, Spy Hunter and a ton of other classics.

They already have this. Over here we have an arcade called "Nickel City" which features a combination of newer games which you can play for nickels instead of quarters and older games which you can play for free.

I agree. Before I went to Dave and Buster's, I had envisioned that place to be like that. I heard that D &amp; B was geared for the older crowd. Naturally I thought it was going to be an arcade with a bunch of old arcade games. I was so disappointed when all I saw was a bunch of racing-type games. Not that those games are bad, but I was expecting so much more.

That would'nt really work because you can basically play all those games on your cpu without the hassle of going out.

Lets face it, the video game arcade age is slowly fading out of exsistence.
