SEGA Retrospective: The Deeper Arcade game – An oxymoron that became one of SEGA’s pillars

Different cultural perspectives can transform one concept considerably, and this can be applied to arcade games.
Back in the glory days of arcades, westerners played in an arcade maybe once a month or even once a week at most.
However in Japan, with its density of population, going to an arcade can become simply a part of your everyday routine, similar to how westerners play their games on home and mobile platforms.
But what could one keep coming back to the arcade, time and again? Cards. Yes. Magnetic cards.
