Thanks for posting this.  I will definitely be checking this place out -- sounds like a great place to hit after a Rockies baseball game.  :cheers:

I am aware of galloping ghost in Brookfield.  Its 15 minutes away from my house. Great place, bigger than most arcades in the area back in the day...But it doesn't have beer, thats a neg. And $15 bucks is a lot of scratch to play games, but I understand its the necessary cost to make it viable.

"Adler says the 1Up will offer...upscale twists on bar food, including a quarter pound bacon cheeseburger on a glazed donut."

Oh, gross.

That's a great place, though. Mint Journey cab. Nice! And...well, except for Mortal Kombat...all RETRO!

By the latest comments, it wasn't looking stellar for the place. But wait: http://blogs.westword.com/backbeat/2011/04/1up_arcade_denver.php

I live in the Denver downtown area and have been to the 1up about a half dozen times since it opened, and it looked like it was doing extremely well the last time I was in there. There were lines for many video games, and it was pretty tough to secure one of the jumbo jenga tables.

There is one of those down in Austin (barcade that is).  I think I went around Christmas and there was a big bar crawl going on, so a lot of people were just there for the bar and not so much the arcades.  Several cocktail machines and arcade machines had people around them, but not playing.  It was a good time to get there before it got packed and play a bunch of old arcade games and skeeball.  I need to go back on a Sunday when they have free play day.
