Let it Die business model

Im seeing a lot more barcades opening around the country, mostly in big cities. I think they could work if you pay via a time card instead of quarter=plays, and if you get a good location. Near a college campus or a busy bus station might work.

What's the appeal?

Games that are not bound by traditional input methods in a social setting? Nestalgia?

Make a arcade where you trade tickets for food,drink, and Marijuana if in legal state.

Sitting in a car-model while driving.
Light guns.
Playing air hockey.
Weird games that would never get a home-release.
The social aspect of it.
Nostalgia.
I dunno. I havent been in an arcade for at least 15 years.
