With shooting and fighting games increasingly coming into the spotlight by legislators, Bar Code in New York is proving non-violent machines can be a worthwhile investment.
As the censorship battle continues over violent video games, establishments such as the Bar Code arcade in Times Square, New York is proving that there are still viable ways of maintaining a successful arcade by offering non-violent games as an option.
Dance Dance Revolution has been a major hit at the Bar Code arcade, surpassing shooting and fighting games in popularity.
ABCNEWS.com recently inferred that a considerable proportion of the machine's success is due to the social interaction possible with games like Dance Dance Revolution, providing a good platform for people to display their dancing prowess. Some people have even claimed to use the Dance Dance Revolution machine as a major part of their exercise regime.
The gameplay is designed around animated characters on a video screen providing directions and encouragement to the player, while neon lights flash on the floor panel indicating where the dancer should place their feet.
