Stationary Arcades May Be Dead, But What About One On Wheels?

With video arcades on the wane, a Florida couple are trying a different approach to public gaming: Packing an arcade’s worth of games into a van that can be rented out for parties.

Games2U vehicles have flat screen TVs installed both inside and outside the vehicle, allowing up to 20 people to game at a time. The set ups, depending on the franchise and where you live, includes Playstation 3, Wii and Xbox 360 titles.

The set-up also includes the ability to rent giant hamster balls and laser tag systems.

I like the idea, but I would love it if they actually carted arcade games around to parties. Or better still, like a huge stage that unfolds with fog machines, pyro effects and a stage to play Rock Band or Guitar Hero on. Oh… and groupies, totally need groupies.
