Why aren’t arcades big anymore?

Are they not profitable

Just seems like a cool place to hangout. The cool lights and colors and noises

A lot of people can get their own videogames at home these days where once you bought it, you can play for free (besides the electricity). I think it's something like that. 🤔

@Classified you don’t think 90s arcade games will be fun (profitable) to bring back like original Mortal Kombat and stuff?

It’s more less a hangout idea. Bring twenty ones and play and fvvk around with your friends

@DeluxedEdition They would probably be fun with the right group, but I don't expect them to be profitable. At least not in the quantity they used to exist. A former colleague of mine still went to the arcade often to do dance games. So a number of them still manage to make ends meet.
