the horror...
HaRuMaN:
I was walking through the student lounge at my college today when I noticed an arcade machine parcked against the wall. "Cool," I thought as I walked over to take a closer look...
Much to my dismay, I realized it was one of those gawd-awful ugly Ultracade machines. I wonder which moron from the student government thought that would be a good idea...
TalkingOctopus:
There are a ton of beat up arcade games laying around the dorms where I attend school. Mostly Neo Geo's w/ games like puzzle bobble and metal slug as well as some marvel vs capcom's that only have 5 buttons in some funky layout. No one ever uses them. I wouldn't mind taking a neogeo off their hands. I honestly don't think anyone would miss it. Fortunately there is a great arcade, (Pinball Pete's in ann arbor), that is nearby.
mr.Curmudgeon:
Pinball Pete's is still around? :o
hehe...I grew up in the metro-Detroit area and spent most of my weekends during high school at Pete's. That and Dave's Comics.
SkateDetroit:
I love me some pinball petes. Gotta go there and blow a few bucks on all the new fancy games sometimes. What school are you at Octopus? U of M? I'm at Eastern.

Ok, this Pinball Pete's, is it worth the roadie from Grand Rapids (1.5 hours)? There are no arcades that I know of over here in west MI, and certainly nothing with pinball games. If you guys recommend it, I might have to drive over some weekend to blow some quarters.
