I don't know where you were in 1994, but i was playing games on Amigas, SNES, Mega Drive and Gameboy. I encountered an arcade machine once on vacation in Spain. Bubble Bobble. The differences: I paid before playing. The coin let me play for as long as my skills could keep up with the game. The game was entirely skill-based, not a long-term strategy game designed to maximize my retention.
