Nostalgia seems to be the draw here. And for a while that Nostalgia can be enjoyable. As new games become available there is a little fun in trying to recognize what actual arcade game is being parodied and trying to own sets of games and their sequels as a more personal goal, more-so than for the bonus in game. But when that nostalgia runs out (and it will quickly) then all you are left with is the game play, which just comes down to something that is fast-paced but barely challenging. By the time you have advanced to the second year you can easily already have the largest arcade available and you're making more money than you know what to do with. From there its just going from machine-to-machine to empty them of coins and repair them quickly. When new games come out you just swap them with older games that aren't popular. Aside from a few achievements to get in the game, there isn't really much to do past 1982, and this game ends at 1987. Yes you can keep playing past that point, but if you do there are no longer any new games to purchase so the game doesn't even have that to keep you motivated anymore.
An update would have been wonderful to address these problems, but as this is an older game the chances of that are pretty unlikely.
The only reason to get this game is it's really the only game to offer you an arcade business simulation worth noting.
