While arcades in Japan are as busy as ever, arcades in the West have been dying out despite the influx massive influx of competitive games.
The Street Fighter series has a long history, but which are the seven best games the franchise has yet offered to gamers?
The Street Fighter 6 select theme makes a return to the hip-hop and rap genre, and it's a worthy follow-up to the Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike select theme.
If you’re into rap, sure I can see this being up there. I think SF4 had a better select theme, personally.
It's hard to imagine a time before Persona spin-offs, but Persona 4 Arena marked the turning point from a humble RPG series to something greater.
perhaps because most are just to win tickets to get spider rings? if they actually had true arcades like when i was younger i'msure they would fare much better.
I think its because u can play them at home. Back when arcades was huge like when streetfighter 2 first came out, consoles werent up to par with that tech. Now its like consoles have surpassed everything u can do in an arcade game & is why arcade games have faded & is not as big as it use to be.
Also the challenge one another is also huge on consoles now because u can play against almost anyone across the globe online which arcade games cant do but i still think their cool to have around. If u ever go to a laundry place to do laundry they have arcade machines. It makes time fly by but now phones are big on games & thats another thing that is killing off arcade games.
I miss those days... I don't think there is anything that can be done to really bring them back to what we once knew them as. These machines were very expensive back then and still are today. Thankfully whenever I visit the beach there is an arcade there that has been thriving for over 50 years.
