Arcades in Vancouver
My Vancouver experience has been more limited to the more recent games of the late ’90’s and the new millenium. Sure I did play some games when I went to UBC during the late ’80’s but there wasn’t anything really exciting back then.
At this point in the video game industry, home console games were just starting to come into the spotlight. Home graphics were getting pretty acceptable for systems like the Super Nintendo, and PC Engine and Sega Genesis systems.
I only really started to get back into arcade gaming a little bit when games like Dead or Alive and Soul Calibur and King of Fighters ’94 came out.
