Re: End of arcade development ?

I think it depends on where you live and what genre of games you are into, Also it's just the inevitability of gaming in general.

If you are a music rythem fan, there are still DDR and Bemani/Music Rythem games being made every year

But in general when you have so many people with console's the pro's and con's of going to the arcade have become the deciding factor:

Arcade - Wait you're turn, Spend lot's of money.

Gaming at home - Learn at you're own pace, Extra mode's/Content, Unlimited Continue's
---

However, i think arcade's and the scene live's on in a different way. Through Emulation Hobbyiest project's and communities..

It make's no sense to develop a game on proprietary hardware just to port it to console's a few month's later.

That 'Arcade Experience' has been narrowed down from custom chips,specific componant's and quirky control scheme's to basically a pc, with a peripheral (What ever is needed to experience the game).
---

Are Arcade's Dead/Dying.. Yes.. Is the Arcade scene and community dying, Hell No.

So Build those cab's, Set to FREEPLAY and get's as many people playing as possible

On a side note, I also think people would gladly donate through official mean's to Developers for game's they would not be able to play without mame etc (Rare,Availibility in you're country).

Seriously Konami.. TAKE MY MONEY Get That Paypal link up.
