In the enviroment of Arcades are fun for some, and many of us play games in the confines of our homes which isn’t anything wrong, makes it less interactive in the context to meet folks and truely socialise in person.
Personally i am more inclined to meet folks in an arcade time to time. Maybe because i blabber too much plus enjoy the interesting folks with some light hearted banter as well.
To look forward to something more than the confines of my walls and get some air too after the arcade is a bonus.
Anyways not everything from the past was bad it is an alternative way such as there is the way we do things in these days.
Having choice is certainly nice and to have arcades back brings good times. Apart from when losing games and not having enough change to continue games 
Arcade to me makes it appealing to bringing a bunch of folks from families to friends etc. Arcade style boxes are so nice too with the artwork and its finishing.
You could say its a functional art piece and with whatever games are built into it you get to experience this. The only down side of that is not many have the space to have those unless your fortunate to have big space, time and investment to do that.
So generally speaking arcade venues is more accessible if there are one’s nearby. Thankfully we have a few here and the main thing is to keep on top of the maintaince because machines not working is sad for those who wanted to play their game.
Not only that there are some who hog the machine for hours haha probably getting really into the game or too competitive
