Barcade Spots: Are Video Game Arcades Making a Comeback?

[@andrewalonsi]

Arcade cabinets from the 80s-2000s were cool, but so glad making at home cabinet is possible!

I love that. On a somewhat related note, I still play Galaga on a mini arcade all the time -- I much prefer it there as opposed to modern consoles.

Console games were supposed to be an escape from renting to own games(going to an arcade to funnel quarters into a machine that wasn't yours). Now modern games are no different from a quarter-eating arcade machine. So might as well go back to the arcade and play something that doesn't have a subscription, lootboxes, microtransactions for worthless cosmetics, etc. Plus you have your name on a high score list to flex.
