Arcades that are still around
Well Fed Games:
I'm (finally) going to hit Galloping Ghost Arcade in Brookfield, IL http://www.gallopingghostarcade.com/ next week, my wife is taking me for my birthday... can't wait!

I went to an arcade in the Austin, TX area over the weekend. It opened last November and a buddy of mine started working there, told me to swing by when I came back to visit. I was impressed.

I'll post a few of the pics I took (sorry for iPhone quality). It's got two floors full of a healthy mix of pinball machines, arcade cabinets, and misc games. Plus it's BYOB which is pretty cool. I wish this was open during my undergrad years.
If any of you are in the area, you should check it out.

That's a lot of pinball. Beautiful. Would be doubly awesome if they had cabs to match them. And check out that wide air hockey table. I think those were more common in the 70s and 80s.
tho:
I recently came across this arcade in NH.

Great place with lots of great games. The owner there also repairs games and pins. (I'm trying to get an old Atari Pinball working). I was there yesterday and talk about memory lane... Although I remember the games being much bigger.

Anything like these places in the UK?
Id love to have the money to open something like these over here - i reckon it would be a big hit!
Saw funspot the other day on The King Of Kong which was on a channel over here called Current TV.
My missus just sighed and said i look and act like the nerds on that program. THANKS!
