DOC: “There are things that we've added to the arcade like our hardcore championship, which is
a championship belt. There are rules behind it where if you're the hardcore champ, when anybody challenges you, you have to
accept their challenge. We go to AURCADE and we look at the list of games. We use a random number generator to pick what game the champion and the challenger are gonna play... and they go play for high score.
Using that format, the Hardcore Championship, we're going to
be able to track that through AURCADE with the re-release of the site. It is basically the arcade championship for every arcade. We're going to be sending out really nice professional wrestling belts to each venue that wants to use AURCADE as an incentive to get at least 10 games and have a community behind it. You have to have so many scores put in and then you'll have this championship belt that the players can fight for.
Ultimately, we want the long game to be once you have all these arcade champions, then you can have them compete against each other. It builds the foundation for something much bigger that we have planned down the road, but
it all starts with AURCADE, where we're giving these belts away. They are not inexpensive belts and they're designed specifically for each location.”
AURCADE has the right idea; create a community that is accessible, fun, and engaging. Bring new world tech into the retro land of yesteryear to give us the best of both worlds! As AURCADE releases their next version, will you be signing up and chatting in the forums, or slaying high scores on the leaderboards? I hope to see you doing both! Special thanks to Doc Mack for his time discussing AURCADE and I look forward to
the next version! Check out our full interview with Doc Mack on Old School Gamer LIVE, www.youtube. com/osgretro.
