If only I had a quarter for every quarter I shoved into a video arcade game at the mall in the 70’s and 80’s.

Streaking was cheaper and lots more fun.

I’m sure you had a ton of fun with those quarters. I remember fondly the PVP aspect of street fighter II. I was an adult by that time, but it was fun to have a run of several wins against the teenagers lol.

Adults whining about the "kids of today" is nothing new under the sun. Back in the 1970s, my parents thought my generation was going to hell in a handbasket on account of rock and roll music, trashy TV shows and all those pinball arcades (that were already transforming into video arcades with PacMan, Space Invaders and Galaxa.

Yeah, I wasted a lot of quarters too!
