those ports of games

Brøderbund’s computer game Ancient Art of War and maybe Ancient Art of War at Sea should have been ported to coinop versions.

Both were damn great computer games that could have had been potential money makers in arcades and businesses. If a coin credit to continue to play feature was added to the games, there’s the profit feature all by itself. Make the game to work in cocktail table format, unfortunately using a split screen window for each player’s side for viewing gameplay and maybe the players would have been almost continually feeding coins to the end just to see who wins the game.

I believe that would have been doable.
