Why Arcades Are Cool

If your a gamer and has never been to an arcade, I feel sorry for you.

In Bermuda, we don't have an arcade gaming scene, at all. Why should you care?

Well, gaming has taken more of an, antisocial turn, since the introduction of console gaming.

While with a huge arcade, it attracts a general audience, in a social atmosphere.

Why it isn't easy in Bermuda to build a great arcade?

Money. The modern arcade cabinet costs you $10,000, and that's just for one, single arcade machine.

Will Bermudian gamers ever rejoice?
I don't know.

Why play arcade if you can get a cheaper console?

Well, playing home online, with players from across the world; the game tends to lag.

So just get faster internet.

No matter how fast your internet is, the data from your console has to transfer data to their console and vice versa, so either way, you'll have lag on some level.

Solution?

You can move to Japan for all your arcade gaming needs. At least, I plan to.
