It’s Bowl Expo week, and due to circumstances this year, that means it’s going to see the debut of some new titles. That generally isn’t the case for this particular expo, although it has become more important to the arcade side of the business as time has marched on. Among the first games to »

I wondered whether or not I should cover this today, since I normally don’t get into console game news, but I figure that not everyone who reads this blog necessarily watches E3 coverage. As the post headline says, the 2017 arcade title Cruis’n Blast is finally headed home, thanks to Raw Thrills developing a »

Welcome to Location Watch, a series of posts that tracks the opening of new arcade businesses across the planet. These have been rather infrequent since the pandemic hit, taking out many arcades and other small businesses with it, but it’s a resilient industry and it’s important to keep highlighting these efforts.
