I long to game again after seeing all of these arcade features. I haven't been to a good ol' arcade in awhile.
My favorite arcade game was Time Crisis. Or was it Virtua Cop? I was definitely a bit of a nerd when I was a child. These arcade features are like taking a walk through my gaming past. I miss the days of coin-op pleasure.
Implications - Consumers in modern society are looking for items that feature an element from the past. Customers who want to be reminded of simpler times with fewer responsibilities are attracted to these products. Companies trying to increase their appeal could focus on this when coming out with their newest designs.
