    Arcades are incredible, I remember playing House of the Dead with my younger cousin and we kept dying and continuing and basically hogging the game for ourselves for hours, until we finally beat the game. I'm proud to say that I completed all the House of the Dead arcades, it was a pain in my wallet but it was worth it. Brings back memories

    You wanna know why arcades really died in the US? $2 to $3 for one play that's why.

    The original House of the Dead was one of my all time arcade favorites.

    I used to LOVE my old Sega Genesis. Now I rock the Genesis Klassix volumes 2 & 4 from Amazon. Good times.

    I think I went to one in Tampa. It's funny or sad how arcades will be viewed similar to the way we think of mainframe computers or 1980's cell phones.

    Fast forward to:- 12.15 Tatsunoko Vs Capcom ARCADE!

    Man, I wish I was there. There's nothing I like more than Arcade editions. I still wish Rumble Fish 2, Daytona 2, Sega Race TV, Scud Race and Mario Kart Arcade GP 1 &2 would come to home consoles.
