Nolan Bushnell's (founder of Atari) son, Tyler, has gotten into the modern day arcade business by making a unit that can be played in arcades, porting 11 modern day indie games in one: venturebeat.com/2018/08/19/atari-cofounders-son-tyler-bushnell-brings-back-retro-arcades-with-polycade/Surprisingly, there actually is a market for this, as I had seen weeks ago in regards to game centers that have a bunch of games that I had never heard of: arcadepreservation.wikia.com/wiki/GameTime_Tampa?file=GameTimeGameList.jpg#Known_gamesSome of those are arcade classics (After Burner's at the very top), others are skill/redemption machines, but others are ports of modern day apps that he mentioned in the article, such as Crossy Road (speaking of which, I wish they had made more of a mention as to what games are in it, but I suppose that can just be looked up) . That's cool, hope it works out for him, unlike the much-hyped Ouya concept that came and went. Those are two totally different things though, of course, but it just came to mind.

I think I've seen this before. Looks quite cool but that's some price tag!
