Yeah I've heard they're decent, but they're also several generations newer than what's in a typical Vewlix. I'd just turn it into a Steam box though lol.
I mean, I guess? I dunno, the genre I really care about, fighting games, there's zero reason to care about the arcade versions. The home ports are all superior. The days of the arcade version being better are gone, half the time the input lag in the arcade is worse. It's kinda wack to me.
The only modern arcade games that are interesting to me really are specialized control style games. Like rhythm or driving games, something where you can only get the experience with real hardware. I just don't actually play either one more than super casually.
This. I enjoy having my Vewlixes, they're nice to have. We play all the other, older games on candies, it's nice to have cabs for the modern games to make it all fit together. But it's just the emotional side of my hobby fixation, there's not much practical benefit anymore. I run a PC with Steam, we play the best version of the games, and it's all fun. Just not particularly "arcade".
