Do you still have tokens from your childhood arcade????????
solfood:
my two local (within a bike ride) arcades we called Fun Spot and Egads. I don't have tokens from either. Isn't there some huge arcade up north called Fun Spot? Maybe someone could send me a token? I think Egads closed in 84 and Fun Spot in 85...both we around for 3-5 years.

Aladdin's Castle is owned by Namco now. They also own Time Out and something else, but I can't remember the name. You can use this locator to see if there is one near you....

I have a few tokens from some Jersey shore arcades. I think I have some from Bobby Dees in Wildwood among others. I also recently found an OOOOOLD Chuck E. Cheese token holder with belt clip. Man, I must have been so cool with that thing ;D

I'd just have to dig through my change pile and find late 70's - early 80's quarters. Only arcade here that had tokens was a Showbiz pizza, and since there were two real arcades close by I didn't play there much.

I still have some Aladdin's Castle tokens (up until around 99 they still had some in Minnesota). I used to have some tokens from Circus and Chuck E Cheese; still have some tokens from Machine Shed (lame arcade in Rochester, MN).
Out at my fathers place he used to have a big fish bowl where we had coins and what not (for the arcades) and I know there were tokens from Enchanted Village (Washington state), chuck e cheese, and a few weird arcades from around Seattle (One in Aurora Village, and Northgate). Strangley enough, he also has some weird slugs that I used to use at little ceasars and hogies corner (a sub place they used to have around seattle - always had awesome games like the Vs. Goonies).
