I feel like it wouldn't interfere with emulation much if the videos paused and unpaused when games were being played, much like how the arcade games pause in the current version when the player walks away from a cabinet.īetter controller support is a must. I like the idea of a VCR, as it adds to the atmosphere and that's one of the main reasons I love NRA so much to begin with. Improving compatibility with existing emulators would be nice, too, especially in Windows 10. Being able to swap out the default console models with user-made ones would add more customizability to the arcade. I'd rather see Farsight Studios put a little effort into improving the UI in their game and adding decent VR elements than see Digital Cybercherries try to work out a comparable experience from the ground up. The pinball tables in The Pinball Arcade are (usually) close enough to the actual experience of playing them in real life to be satisfying, and almost all of the really good ones have already been added.

While I would love to see it in NRA, it would take such a huge amount of effort to make the experience worth having.

Tickets I can collect, then exchange for prizes (audio/video tapes, consoles, handhelds, posters, etc.)Ī modular design so I can add more rooms, and populate them with the number and style of cabs I want.

Like a usable pay phone which plays back funny pretend calls when you call the numbers you find in the bathroom. Other consoles besides SNES, handhelds besides Gameboy. Many games have a seated version for example.Ī TV with VCR, and betamax tapes that will play back video files associated with them (but with overlaid graininess). 'Moving seat' cabs for games like After Burner, Galaxy Force II, Hang On, etc. Light gun games, using the touch controllersĭual stick support for games like Robotron, Smash TV, Virtua On, etc.
