The thing about arcade revisions is that, more often or not, they're actually done right and not in a way meant to brutally exploit arcade owners. At least in Japan. Occasionally you'll have a company like EXAMU pull some bull, but more often than not, the revisions seem to be pretty fairly priced and made with the intention of keeping the playerbase coming to the arcade.
