I used to live in Hong Kong and I love arcades. Unlike the US, the cities in Asia have higher population density comparing to those in US. You can find many arcades around the street and they are awesome and pretty new. You can play shooting and even card game online in the arcades store. <br>I do admit that I miss arcades since Ive been moving to NY for 5 yrs. The real fun is you can compete with your friend and other people face to face and we all give whatever we've got, with real skills, no hacks. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[pika]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 2nd 2008 1:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/01/sega-disolves-korean-subsidiary-nixing-330m-yokohama-arcade-co/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/01/sega-disolves-korean-subsidiary-nixing-330m-yokohama-arcade-co/</guid><description><![CDATA[Also, I've fortgot to mention that eveytime I pay a visit in Hong Kong, I usually spend around $40USD within 3 weeks in those arcades machines.

It's basically a large indoor amusement park complete with rides (indoor coasters and half-pipe rides) and physical movement games (i.e. bobsledding and racing sims). You wouldn't be able to recreate those games in your home, even with a Wii. I think there's definitely a market for these kind of parks in big cities (not much room for full-scale outdoor roller coasters).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Russ]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 1st 2008 1:46AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/01/sega-disolves-korean-subsidiary-nixing-330m-yokohama-arcade-co/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/01/sega-disolves-korean-subsidiary-nixing-330m-yokohama-arcade-co/</guid><description><![CDATA[I bet half of the complex will be full of UFO Catchers.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Laron]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 1st 2008 2:25AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/01/sega-disolves-korean-subsidiary-nixing-330m-yokohama-arcade-co/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/01/sega-disolves-korean-subsidiary-nixing-330m-yokohama-arcade-co/</guid><description><![CDATA["dissolves" not "disolves".
