It helps that the industry’s newest and biggest ships promise onboard thrills such as virtual reality arcade games, racing waterslides and roller coasters.

For more than a century it has entertained generations of families with its mixture of classic rides and nostalgic arcades.

On Thursday, Paramount also announced a multi-year global distribution deal with Legendary Entertainment, the first film of which will be an adaptation of the classic arcade game “Street Fighter.”

“I love roller coasters. I love that carnival energy going on. I love arcades. I love everything about that festive outdoor thing, and I’ve never grown out of it.”

Combine the word “adult” and “arcade” and recognizable spaces — say, Dave & Buster’s — instantly come to mind.
