Pointless announcements 2.0

We just gave the old wallpaper a good cleaning.

 

Yes, that is indeed the very one @DamnitAll and I visited last year. Located only seven minutes from my house, so an easy location to get to.

I would probably go more often, but the last time I went my wrists started to ache after an hour. For one thing, I'm not terribly skilled at these games, as much as I love them. As a younger man, I didn't mind pouring quarters into a machine just to make it to the end, but I don't want to be in pain just for entertainment. I remember standing back and watching Damnitall kicking the crap out of ninjas- I don't mind watching people play.

Although I mentioned this elsewhere, I'll reiterate: it gets hot in that place, with all the machines running constantly. Depending on when you go, the masses of people can also add to the heat issues. (But when we went last year, it wasn't crowded at all.)

I think it's still $25 for an all-day pass. Not a bad deal, since you could go and play for a while, leave to grab a meal and come back later again.

 

That looks awesome.
Do they have games for us old timers like Missile Command, Millipede, and Joust? Those were a few of my favorites.

 

They might have a list of games on their website, but I do know they have a lot of the old classics there. I'm trying to recall if I saw those specific games. If you'd asked me about Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Asteroids, Tempest & Tron, I could have answered in the affirmative.
