      @SuperSmashDolls 8 месяцев назад +2

      brutalmoose actually kind of did Round1 dirty. You really go there for the import cabs - i.e. rhythm and fighting games. The redemption games and crane games are really just icing on the cake. In fact, the people who do advantage play at arcades kind of hate Round1 because the advantage play never works out to be profitable in the same way a D&B or Main Event might.
      As for *why* Round1 is the only arcade that runs rhythm or fighting games... uh... #FucKonami. That's why. A decade and change ago Konami moved to revenue sharing, where all their arcade cabinets have to be connected to function and the online servers keep track of your revshare payouts. The cabinet will not accept coins or swipes until you have paid an equivalent amount of revshare to Konami. If you don't prepay your revshare, the cabinets lock up and won't boot until you do.
      SEGA, Namco, and (I *think*) Taito have similar systems. Revshare is industry standard in Japan, while operators everywhere else balked at it. Which means there often isn't actually a US rollout for any of these games, because all the licensed music in these games was paid for out of revshare, and renegotiating all that would be a pain. (D&B convinced Konami to do it for DDR A but pulled out after A20 Plus.) The manufacturers also *will not* allow you to pay revshare on a JP cab that is operating in the US... with one exception, which is Round1, because they're a Japanese company that somehow convinced the manufacturers to let them extend their licensing deals to the US.
      The US arcade manufacturers (e.g. Raw Thrills) went in the completely opposite direction, focusing almost entirely on racing, shooting, and mobile game ports. They tried rhythm games *once* with Guitar Hero Arcade, and that was that. If you absolutely want to run rhythm games as an indie arcade operator, your options are Pump It Up (because apparently the brain rot in Japan didn't jump over to South Korea), StepManiaX (because Konami's patents over *the entire rhythm game genre* started to expire), old cabs (which is more maintenance and hassle for something fewer players want), or importing new cabs anyway and hacking the software to remove the revshare checks. Which is *hella illegal*.

    I've started going to an arcade more now that my area finally got a Main Event this year (there's only 3 in my state and the other 2 are 200+ miles away and there are no Round 1s). Pearl Fishery, while not amazing, got me hooked on the pusher type games and that then lead me to trying a DC coin pusher that I got like 5 cards from I think. I also had a funny moment with Plinko where, for whatever reason, I had 0 idea how the machine worked and when I actually did figure it out, my first drop landed in the bonus spot. I was so confused on what was going on and so were some people that walked past me.
