This argument only makes sense if you were to buy an arcade cabinet yet still have to pay quarters to the manufacturer to play it.

That is not the case.

Ignoring everything else, much like a man ignores the cancer metastasized to every single part of his body: Lady in the water? Seriously?

The director makes himself the hero of the movie. It's a travesty of film and the final nail in the coffin of his dwindling career and dive into insanity.

Its like finding out that retarded shit who smells in your class is actually a secret rapist. You knew they were bad, but seriously?

No that's the arcade field of business, slot machines, pachinko. Any apparatus that accepts small change for limited use. As I reckon, Warren Buffett started his fortune like this, and a lot of mafia control these around the world, so no, it's not the same thing, it's not the same people owning the arcade as the people who made vidya back in 1990.

Although Kotick was already in the business by that time, he was nowhere near as influential.

I believe the father was referring to his consoles back in the day, not arcades. Stupid artist using a stupid way of conveying it's acceptable for micro transactions today because arcades charged you a quarter every time you played.

You had to pay for the game cabinet, the electricity it used, the people who fix the cabinet when it breaks, and the people who work at the arcade. It's a business, not a fucking console you use at home.

>This artist deserves to die.

But Arcades were actually fun to play.
>>
>>188771920
The arcade business model meant that games had to be top notch. Therefore many arcade games are top notch. Far better than anything you'll get on a console anymore.
