Fun Spot

Hello guys, I have the chance to travel to USA, New York city to be more specific.
This a great chance for me to see original arcade cabinets. I'm from Spain and all we had back in the day were bootlegs, hacks, no real arcade cabinets.
I remember spanish versions of games like Galaxian or Galaga were modified and made harder so people would spend even more money, jeje. (eg. the amazing zero time)

So I was looking in the map and Fun Spot is quite far from New York. Renting a car an travelling all the way there + cold... I would have to think about.
 Is there any place similar to Fun Spot near New York city by any chance?

greetings.

He's right.  I am about 2.5 hours from Funspot and I hit it with my kids several times a year.  The experience of walking in there and seeing several hundred classic games at once never gets old.  I don't think there is another place in this country quite like Funspot.

Like Xiaou2 said there is a lot of other stuff in this area too but I'm not sure either which places are only open during the summer.

How many hours by car from New York to Laconia?

mgb:

I believe it will be about 5-6 hours.
I also agree that Funspot is the greatest. My family and I go up there every year and also have a great time.

There's a Barcade in Brooklyn(heard they may open one in Manhattan someday).  Here's the list of the ones at Brooklyn, about 40 games:

They reopened the arcade in Chinatown, but it turned redemption. noooooooo
I had a gift card and ended up just playing Terminator Salvation with a friend and a couple games of Centipede.  The joysticks on the fighting games were busted.  Pretty sad.
