I've found it interesting that arcade games have gone in the opposite direction. Most modern arcade games are released on the Taito Type X, Sega Lindbergh and other similar platforms. These are basically just PCs with Intel processors, Nvidia or ATI graphics cards, and Windows or Linux.
A good example is Street Fighter. Street Fighter 3 was release for the CPS3 [0], a completely proprietary platform that ultimately only had 6 games released for it. Street Fighter 4 was on the Taito Type X2 [1], which is pretty much a PC.
