Any good arcades in Wildwood NJ?

Does anyone know of any good arcades in Wildwood that aren't all just redemption games? Pinball machines, skeeball, and video games is what I'm looking for

Gateway 26 on the Wildwood boardwalk was nice. I haven't been there in a few years but it was great back then. No classic games that I can remember but lots of games nonetheless. Yes they have skeeball also!

Your best bet is to just walk in and out of everything on the boardwalk.  When I was there last year, each arcade was only good for a few decent games :(

I think FunCenter or something like that had a decent amount of games... but really most only have a small amount of worthwhile games now :(

Wow, back in the early 80's my family used to vacation in Wildwood NJ once every summer (the WiKiKi hotel if its still there).  Me and my brothers used to go to the boardwalk each night and play the latest games at the time (like Crossbow, Crystal Castles, Kung-fu Master,...)...lots of great memories.

haha That is funny.  My family used to stay at the WiKiKi every year too.  And I wound up staying at the Olympic a few times which is right next to it.

I'm going there on a family vacation, to The Madrid. The Wikiki is still there. We considered going there
