There has been a lot of discussion about the “Death of Arcades” video, no where more so than on the comments page of the video itself.
[via Kevin Williams of The Stinger Report]
“The Director of the contentious ‘Arcades are Dead’ video bows to viewer pressure and answers criticism and at the same time promises a next video claiming ‘Arcades have Returned’! It is thought that pressure from the number of sites that have dropped the original video and the hard hitting criticism of factual errors and poor research has forced this U-Turn.”

Some more information on the exact reasons to the following forum news.
– Producer has not changed plans, a ‘Arcade has Returned’ video was always in the episode schedule
– The original video has not been dropped off some sites, the distributors asked it removed for copyright reasons
– The producers of the video stand by all their comments, stating they were referring to the American market
Personally, I think the anger of the hardcore arcade fans has heated the criticism of the original video and that cooler heads need to prevail.
We look forward to the next episode on arcades.
