A man has opened an 80s-90s-style arcade in Nanuet, New York, about an hour away from New York City, hoping to revive interest in old-school public video gaming. While arcades are still big in Japan, in the United States, arcades have plummeted in popularity due to the advent of online gaming. Aside from Dave and Busters franchises, the only places I have found arcades today are in beachside tourist cities and towns. I live in northern New Jersey, close to New York City, and I have gone down to the Jersey Shore, particularly Atlantic City, many times, and I tend to visit the arcades there. It would be nice to see arcades make a comeback in America.
