Arcades added to collection

No one knows what's on my white board

While I disagree with the decision it's certainly yours to make.  I don't think arcades should be made too complex because, after all, they're just games and you already have a database to accomodate that.

And arcades are no "mix" of hardware and software.  Treating it as such would be like treating televisions and stereos as video game hardware.  It's simply another "console" to have games inserted into (boards, carts, discs or a combination of each).

Regardless, thanks for the consideration and if you need help with the forthcoming database let me know.

This has been brought up before and i like the idea of them having their own "database".

Owning a ton of games and systems is very very different from owning arcade cabs, cocktail tables, etc.

So the pages for each arcade game would and IMO should be set up very differently from the games.

The type of information could be alot more extensive on each arcade games page to say the least.
Could include repair information, replacement parts, etc. Whatever is decided to be put up there for information fields should definately be explored to the fullest with those who have arcade knowledge.
 
As well as the normal information we have on the current game pages; review, trivia, easter eggs, etc

I am no arcade expert myself but it just sees like apples and oranges to me.
