How long do you think it will take till arcade, Dreamcast, Saturn and every Sega game ever made becomes available on PSN, Xbox Live arcade, Virtual Console and PC Direct to Drive or something like that?
How long till Sega realease new arcade games and then releases them on Xbox Live Arcade at the same time through an emulator.
So like Lindberg games released at the same time as in the arcades and having arcades connect to Xbox Live for online play.
Online play at arcades would make people go to arcades more and then in turn get people to buy them at home, which equals more sales in arcades and at home.
Arcade games would really benefit from this.
What would it take for this to happen?
Since Sony is bringing PSOne games and Microsoft is doing Xbox ones and Nintendo Nintendo 64, i would imagine the following needs to happen first.
1: Sony starts selling PS2 games online.
2: Sony releases Home in which boosts internet sales.
3: Internet speeds get quicker and cheaper.
4: People living in the country get access to the internet through a new satelite internet or through something similar.
5: Everyone starts to count the internet as a must just like TV.
6: Movies, TV shows, songs, etc get downloaded via internet, starting to happen with Xbox 360 and PSN.
I would say that in 5 years this might happen but wouldn't it be nice for Dreamcast games to be on Xbox Live Arcade for the 10th anniversary of the Dreamcast on 9/0/09.
Why is it taking this long to get people on the internet?
When do you think the next leap in speeds will happen and when it will go down in price by a lot?
For a Dreamcast game 1gb, it would take 10 minutes to download on preety quick internet but for a movie it would take 1 hr and 10 minutes, the internet needs to get quicker to get everyone to adopt it.
It needs to be atleast 10 gb in 10 minutes, not 1 gb in 10 minutes.
It can be done what's taking them so long?
