Gaming Platforms

Arcade:
An arcade game or coin-op is a coin-operated entertainment machine typically installed in public businesses such as restaurants, bars and amusement arcades. Most arcade games are video games, pinball machines, electo-mechanical games, redemption games or merchandisers.
You will also find that they are equipped so that you have plenty of room to set your soda or snack on it. There is nothing quite like a parent being able to enjoy a game of Donkey Kong with their child. The fun that can be had on arcade machines can be had by people in every age group. No online support or Multiplayer – You can not play online with the arcades Very large & hardware Dependant – They are not very portable so you cannot move it around as well as you could with modern consoles Older hardware than whats used today – The arcade hardware is still old compared to the other consoles because there is not a big market anymore for hardware in arcades Can crash a lot of the time – Can be unreliable because they still use old hardware Rarely used anymore besides dedicated arcades – Not many arcade machines in homes anymore, mainly found in dedicated arcades Not many games are created for them anymore unless they’re arcade based Can’t save games Basic Graphics (Low quality) – Due to the old hardware they cannot keep up with modern graphics that is being used by other consoles Game cannot be changed, one machine per game – You can only have one game per machine.

Console:

Advantages
Split Screen Co-op and used game market are real advantages of Console gaming (but PC games are cheaper on other hand). If you prefer Console exclusives then that's another advantage for you, but it may not be advantage for someone else. Other advantages of Consoles don't exist anymore.

PC-a personal computer.
