And the Revolution will likely steal away some of the uniqueness arcades have left.

I belive the Revolution might simulate the arcade experience of some arcades, such as Time Crisis 2 (my second favorite arcade machine, after "The SImpsons"), but in no way would simulate stuff like Sonic Blastman's original arcade, Daytona USA original arcade, and the Dance Dance Revolution machines.
