[QUOTE="Admin, post: 62061, member: 1"] [I][B]Spoiler Warning: The following article includes minor spoilers for side content in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth.[/B][/I] Publisher Sega gives itself a cheeky pat on the back in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth as the game's protagonist praises the amazing games its produced over the years. The Yakuza/Like a Dragon series is largely set in Japan and aims to replicate real world locations, and one way it does so is by including genuine Sega arcades where players can essentially emulate other games. These typically match the era they released in.

Upon entering a retro arcade in Infinite Wealth, longtime protagonist Kiryu Kazuma (who's one of the two main playable characters in this latest entry), reminisces over his time spent in these arcades, praising Sega as he goes. They always seemed to innovate with every new game they put out. "Looks like an old-fashioned arcade. Guess it's what the kids would call 'retro'," Kiryu says. "I used to frequent arcades like this back in the day. Had lots of fun playing games there. "The folks behind all these games must be incredibly creative and unique.
