There are several different kinds of games you’re going to find in your local arcade (well, assuming you even have a local arcade any more). Most of them are the ‘stand up, waggle the joystick and mash the buttons’ kind of game, then there are driving games, pinball games, and light-gun games. Most of these have made the transition to the home consoles… except that last one. Well, until the Wii came out that is, though there are still relatively few of the things for it.
And what that means is that my pointing and clicking skills, without the aid of a reticule, are beginning to languish. Which is a shame, because I used to be halfway decent at shooting cardboard cutouts of gangsters.
