... 1980's, this popularity quickly declined in the early 90's when the Action games became the "rage". As a result it was not financially sound to create and market them when people had no interest. The advent of console game platforms and MMORPG has not helped either. Nevertheless popular adventure games like Syberia and Syberia II have been published both for the PC and Xbox. In addition, Nintendo DS released of Trace Memory and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney in 2005 and Hotel Dusk: Room 215 in 2006.

The latest development is that free online adventure games can now obtained on premium internet portals without the need for download or plug-in. Many game lovers are now turning their attention to the internet not just for playing games but for socializing as well. Perhaps this is the new way in which adventure games will be played.

Conclusion

As it stands right now, the new Nintendo console will most likely be available early to mid 2006, along with the release of the new PS3 and the Xbox 360. What can we expect? I think it would be naive to think that Nintendo is going to release a system that will be inferior to the competition. They have been around too long to make another big mistake.

Now, with the latest invasion of the next-gen consoles (XBOX 360, PS3, Wii) playing in arcades seems like a prehistoric experience.

With the Nintendo Wii's ability for a gamer to interact with the game just by my moving their hands and arm, it stole the last original characteristic of the arcade games. These used to be the kind of innovations you only saw in an arcade machine: The ability to play with more than just a basic joystick and buttons.
