If yes, have you already played on their Mortal Kombat 9 cabinate? (http://www.trmk.org/news/18683/trmks_mortal_kombat_2011_launch_day_coverage.html) |

The two local Dave and Busters have lots of games, but sadly I don't think a single game uses even 1 joystick. |

The place in Phoenix really looks awesome. Wish I'd had time to look around when I was out there a year ago. Fun Land in Panama City Beach, FL had a good selection of classic games for decades, but they've finally pretty much thrown in the towel. Stopped in there last spring, and the only older games remaining were a beat-up Ms. Pac-Man and an Arkanoid in a weird conversion cab. Everything else (besides Skee-ball, of course) was modern. There was an amazing multi-room arcade in the middle of the tourist strip at Manitou Springs, CO when I was out there five or so years ago. Selection of video games was astonishing... only the second operating ROTJ machine that I'd ever seen in the wild. Oh, thanks for the heads-up on the place in Grand Rapids. Have to go there for work a couple of times a year, I'll be sure and hit the arcade/bar. |

A classic arcade just opened up here in the twin cities (in Minneapolis) this past December; it's called "Rusty Quarters - Retro Arcade and Museum" and they've got a couple dozen classic games, all playable at only 25 cents! My buddies and I have paid the place a visit a few times now and it's been pretty packed by the young and old alike (see photos). Great to see so many showing up to support it! http://www.rqarcade.com http://www.facebook.com/pages/Rusty-Quarters-Arcade/226688464042580 RQ Game List: ------------ Asteroids Burgertime Centipede Crystal Castles Defender Dig-Dug Donkey Kong (2 of them!) Donkey Kong Junior Frogger Galaga Joust Mario Bros. Ms. Pac-Man Q*Bert Rampage Space Invaders Deluxe Street Fighter Alpha 3 Tempest Tetris Track & Field |

Yeah, I have been following the RQ website from before they opened up, hoping that the owner was going to scrape it all together. I am happy he did. I plan on checking it out soon. :applaud: :lol Just noticed the clock from Peewee's playhouse on the wall of the last picture. |
