I've looked at it a bit! Got interest from 1 local arcade.
Cabinets are expensive to build + take effort to maintain (replacing parts) so it would have to be calculated.
I've done a little bit of prototyping in "play games on a shared screen with your cellphone" that I think might be more conducive to the barcade scene. Something I might look into further; right now my next focus is on a GPS-based ChooseYourOwnAdventure + some tools for indie developers.
