>Japan has a large and varied number of coins compared to many countries, which has helped to popularize equipment such as vending machines, tickets for transportation such as buses and subways, and the notable arcades.
>A large concentration of major gaming industries. To this day, Japan has one of the largest electronic game industries, second only to the United States.
>Arcade games do not have genres that appeal to Western audiences. The West had some moments of competition with Japan. The clash between Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter, for example. But the West began to popularize FPS and DOOM, which diminished interest in arcades.
