But they have no 1P development teams specifically for that device. Exa-Arcadia was an interesting effort, they've had some pretty good releases. What the market's transformed into now is mainly redemption games at FEC chains with only a few traditional game developers still on the scene, such as Raw Thrills. Sega were in the best position to realize this in theory in practice they did so much damage to their home console brand, they were no longer in a position to do it by 2001. But I don't think the market needed to fizzle out the way it did, there were and still are so many other qualities to the arcade market that weren't fully tapped into IMO. So you can't beat that!īut Gaf.I am curious who knew about the G-Net and who collects arcade hardware here? I know this is more of a console/PC space.but I am sure there are some arcade fans aroundįor sure, home consoles catching up (more or less) with arcades hurt the latter. Plus with some modding you can get it booting other PSX arcade games that were never designed for the system.

Sure it's not in a nicely designed beige box with the Sony logo on the top.but for what it lacks in ease of use it more than makes up for it in having an absolutely awesome library filled with unique experiences. And it still has a decent amount of exclusive games that never got any home ports. Needless to say my nostalgia for the PS1 generation is huge.īut did you know the hardware got a ton of pivots.the most unique being the Taito G-Net? It's an overspec'd PSX with PCMCIA cards as the storage medium vs discs with extra ram and sound hardware on board.

I'd never seen 3D outside of arcades and now suddenly it was hooked up to a tv in my house.
