Arcade System Board

If a character is knocked out (or falls out) of the ring, their opponent wins the round in a Ring Out. An extra round is necessary if a double knockout (both players knocking each other out at the same time) occurs in a previous round and the match is tied one round each.

List Of Commercial Failures In Video Gaming
The list of commercial failures in video games includes any video game software on any platform, and any video game console hardware, of all time. As a hit-driven business, the great majority of the video game industry's software releases have been commercial disappointments. In the early 21st century, industry commentators made these general estimates: 10% of published games generated 90% of revenue; that around 3% of PC games and 15% of console games have global sales of more than 100,000 units per year, with even this level insufficient to make high-budget games profitable; and that about 20% of games make any profit. Some of these failure events have drastically changed the video game market since its origin in the late 1970s. For example, the failure of ''E.T.'' contributed to the video game crash of 1983. Some games, though commercial failures, are well received by certain groups of gamers and are considered cult games. Video game hardware failures 32X Unveiled by S ...
