When I think of it, it's like any game that'll give me the same experience every single time with no variation, like arcade beat-em-ups and fighting games, have less of a lasting ability than games like Ms. Pac Man/Galaga/Donkey Kong/etc, Pinball, or other similar games.
Guncon games would be alright, but moreso if it was one that had a lot of variation and wasn't just the same levels over and over. Something more like Point Blank. Because unless you're a diehard fan of a fighting game, you don't want to have the exact same thing every time. At least that's the way I see it.
Though I wouldn't mind having one of those professional race games. Like the serious Race Room ones.
