Abstract

Arcade game up until early 2000 had been highly influential and profitable industry that occupied most of the market share for the Korean domestic game industry. However, extensive and yet tightened restrictions were imposed to the industry in 2006 due to the problems of speculative games such as winning rate manipulation, serious addictiveness, and etc. This resulted in damaging healthy arcade game business and eventually caused it seemingly impossible to comeback up until now. This study is to address the current arcade game industry in Korea along with the best practices in other countries to come up with propositions for the comeback of domestic arcade game industry and improvement of competitiveness. Ultimately it is to develop diversification and flexibility and to induce new business opportunities in the domestic arcade game industry by proposing the ways to convert the bad perception and introduction of functional games.

아케이드 게임은 2000년대 초기까지는 국내 게임시장의 대부분을 점유한 영향력 있고 수익성이 높은 게임산업이었다. 그러나 2006년 국내 사행성 게임의 승률조작의 문제점과 심각한 중독성으로 인하여 대대적인 규제가 이루어졌다. 때문에 건전한 아케이드 게임까지 비즈니스에 타격을 입게 되었으며 이러한 영향으로 국내 아케이드 게임은 현재까지도 재기가 불가능한 상황이 되었다. 본 연구를 통하여 아케이드 게임의 고찰과 함께 국내 아케이드게임 산업의 현황을 분석하며 해외 아케이드 게임 시장의 성공사례를 참고하여 한국 아케이드게임 산업의 재기 가능성과 세계 경쟁력을 향상 시킬 수 있는 방향성으로, 인식전환과 기능성게임을 도입하는 대안 제시를 하여, 국내 아케이드게임 산업의 발전과 함께 한국의 게임 산업에 다양성과 유연성을 기반으로 하는 신규 비즈니스의 창출을 유도한다.
