One of the only things that arcades can really still offer now, which you cannot get at home, is the atmosphere of going into a large room full of people and machines. But, if the crowds of players aren't there, arcades can be pretty lonely / sad places. Until the arcades bring something you cannot get at home, I can't see them winning back the crowds of people. It's catch-22. No people => no investment in new games. No investment in new games => no new technologies or experiences that you cannot get at home => no people. Moose
