Nex Machina Confirmed For Arcades Plus Eugene Jarvis' basement arcade

The Robotron 2084-like game Nex Machine (now available on PC & PS4) will be coming to arcades. Not many details on it yet but I've gathered everything we know about it here:

That also includes a tweet showing Eugene playing some games in his basement recently :) Spot the rarest game of his collection!
 
Eugene is awesome. easily my favorite industry personality I've met. my comp might not be able to run Nex Machina, which is depressing, since I'm a huge mark for Robotron and especially Smash TV/Total Carnage.

we'll see what happens.
 
Awesome, but why do all new games have to be the size of an SUV?

No one will collect these beasts in the future.

They make the cash boxes full ;)

You would be surprised though. When I used to sell arcade machines, I was often surprised by the games people would buy for their houses. Especially if they had some cash to spend, they loved the big stuff. Most of the calls about arcade basketball machines was for homes instead of businesses. Granted, a lot of those couldn't fit the machines or it was too expensive to ship but demand was there.

One fun sale was to some mansion in Beverly Hills for this beast:
