idsane:
Was just thinking about this. How much did an arcade owner pay for a cabinet back in the hayday of the 80s or 90s? Were they all purchased or leased?
oyama82:
my father back in 1989 was leasing them
WhereEaglesDare:
i know today some machines are sold for 10-20k
TOK:
I think the ballpark going rate for a new game in the early to mid 80's was 2500 to 3000 dollars.
