I'd love to have what he has in his house. lol. I know a couple of games that i know that i loved but aren't around anymore. 2 were Frontline and Sinistar Ah well maybe one of these times i'll have to try to make an 'open house' The reason, arcade makers stopped with those games is that players could play for a long time on these games if you got good. figure asteroids, space invaders, galaxian u could play for 15 minutes.. Pac-man. Now if u play a game, you're done in like 2 minutes, based on either a timing or a quick kill. There are few very long games in the arcades anymore. The other problem i think that occurred was malls felt that arcades were where gangs hung out and they didn't like that atmosphere. Unfortunately, arcades also took up 'premium space' in a mall and high rent makes it infeasable i think to run arcades anymore in this time. Kewl. I’d love to have what he has in his house. lol.
