I like Yestercades, lots of coin-ops, only issue is that they are mostly side by side one another. You may want to check out The Morristown Game Vault. They have a nice selection with plenty of room between each one http://www.morristowngamevault.com/ Both of those arcades look pretty cool. If I was ever that way, I'd definitely check them out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for posting this.👍 Very cool. It's a lot of fun in there. Just be prepared if you head over... it's really bright in there, haha. 💡 💡 I may have to make a polite request someday that they turn down the lights a bit. 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m originally from NY, but now live in Houston TX. If you ever make your way here, we have an Arcade (The Game Preserve) with two locations. I recently visited the one near NASA for a second time. Here are a few photos. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would definitely check that out!! I don't know if you saw my post yet that I just posted a second ago, but yeah, the lighting in your places in Texas is what I'm looking for. Looks great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks great. I read it. I prefer a darker setting. Some arcades place all of their Vector games in dark rooms and that works too. If you’re ever in Portland OR, you have to visit Ground Kontrol. It’s not as dark as our arcades, but their array of games is awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, I'm tentatively planning on going this Thursday or Friday and I was going to take video, because I just realized I've only taken photos and no video. Your video does a pretty perfect job of capturing the place, so you may have saved me the time! 😀 I may still take some additioinal video of the arcade cabinets, assuming it's quiet in there when I go (it usually is pretty empty at around 11am). We'll see. I usually get right into the games! Definitely get some video of the arcade cabinets. I tend to stick to pinball when shooting video, ignoring the arcade cabs. Also that video is from last spring, so their lineup may have changed since then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sramirez2008 Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Okay…last one for me. The Pinball Hall of Fame in Las Vegas was pretty cool. I visited their old site. It was dark. They have since moved, so that may have changed. At least it looks brighter in their web photos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've got TRON, Star Wars, Galaga, and many of my other favorites, so I'm good! Yep, the place in Vegas has similar lighting to Replay. Still looks pretty awesome though.

YexxenBlaster Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 My arcade would have prizes for whoever has the highest score in a competition. I was thinking a Snoopy snowcone machine, a Pac-Man/Donkey Kong plush from the '80s, or a Mappy keychain from the '80s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
