Would probably cost quite a bit to do, obviously the arcade games are not built for pc so they'd have to spend time converting control schemes, plus they'd have to relicense everything in the game, parts, cars and music, which would add up quite a bit. While they would be different games, i think this could also hurt The Arcade, because it would be direct (and possibly arguably better) competition
Ditto. Being a direct threat to the success of The Arcade is their main concern I assume. Also the optimization is not the easiest job. Arcade games are meant to work on only one machine. The machine that ran Stages 1-3 was basically a more powerful Dreamcast. The machine that ran 4 and 5 was Linux-based. The machine that ran 6-8 was Windows-based, so that would be the easiest to port at least for PC. The two latter machines were had Nvidia GPUs and the new consoles all use AMD. I don't know much about licensing, but they would have a lot to license.
Thank you for a motivation! I'm planning to enter an university that in side Bangkok, I have 2 years countdown to getting good graded for a chance to get inside Bankok

Short answer. Money
Maybe the money problem is the other problem sega would have to consider....
Why not port old entries to modern consoles as a collection?
Stages 3, 5 and 7/8 could represent each of the platforms the game was developed on

Right now there is only one, it is in Bangkok. I hope you'll get a chance to try it out!
