truth is though that i dont know today where to find an decent arcade besides a bowling alley.
the bowling and the restaraunt/bar bring in enough money where they can continue to operate the arcades for old times sakes.
everything that was just strictly arcade in my area first went up to .50 per game, then .75, then $1.00, then $1.50 per play, THEN they all started shutting their doors forever cause no kid or parent wanted to pay it.
thus, the only remaining and best bang for your buck arcades in the area are in bowling alleys.
most of them are still a quarter per game.
