The childs go to Arcade center to play video games, pinball and many machine games.

Adults go to the casino. So, in a way, it’s really the adult Arcade Center.

Although I must say, arcade games are far more interesting and even educational. But since they don’t involve betting, adults prefer roulette instead. The emotional part seems to be about winning money, even though in reality you always lose.
 
Well part of your premise is deceiving.. you don't always lose, sometimes you win, usually a little, or a lucky person wins a lot...,

arcade games you win nothing.. but they're fun, many other types of games are also fun but you also win nothing,

sounds like the question is are you a gamer or just a gambler....

I played all kinds of games for money. Starting with Monopoly, which we played with friends for money, and ending with table tennis or billiards 🙂

One of the biggest advantages of online casinos is the ability to play anytime and anywhere.online casinos offer their customers a wide range of bonuses and promotions. Free spins, discounted sports bets, cashback, and so on. Yes, you can now redeem some bonuses with your card at brick-and-mortar casinos, but the selection is far from comparable. Online, you're not limited to just one casino.

I LOVED arcades!! Paperboy was my go to when I was a kid. Bubble Bobble/Street Fighter as a teen <3 then consoles took over 🙂 I would probably pick an arcade over slots <3 ESPECIALLY a fully stocked one

For me personally I prefer to play arcade games. There should be Casinos that offer arcade games for real money. That could be very interesting and exciting and another possibility to make some money for them.

You are right, the primary goal of most, or perhaps 99% of players is to win money, even if they do not admit it. But in reality, luck does not depend on your goals, it is either on your side or not.

I still go to the arcade. I currently have the high score at my local arcade for the Stranger Things pinball for the month of December. I try to go once a month so that I can keep getting the top score for each month lol.

I grew up around arcades. Aladdin's Castle in the 1980s and a place called Pocket Change in the 1990s. I could hold my own pretty well at Street Fighter II, Street Fighter Alpha, the Mortal Kombat, Tekken, Virtua Fighter, and Marvel vs Capcom back in the day.

My first job when I was 15 was working for my mom's business, which was a Laser Tag arena in 1996-1999, where we ended up putting pool tables and arcade machines in as well.

Good times.

I know quite a few people who have never been interested in gambling, yet many of them play computer games or have some kind of interesting hobby that has nothing to do with gambling. I have been gambling since school and I think it will always be one of my favorite pastimes.

I think arcades are more about the game itself, while casinos add the excitement of winning money. That changes the whole experience.
