Not sure what the point of that is. It seems to merely be a listing, by year, of all arcade games ever released. As is it really serves no purpose and kind of reads like a list of available games in MAME. What might make that interesting would be some sort of way to graph that list. Maybe imagine a line graph that charts the types of games released from year to year. Starting with Pong clones in the 70's and peaking sometime shortly after, maybe a brief surge for Arkanoid in the late 80's. Maze games peaking in the early 80's, fighting games in the late 80's & early 90's and so on.
