Arcades!

[thekorean12]

There are two arcades in my town in southern Indiana. There isn't the best selection of games, but they do have a few that make them awesome. Initial D Arcade Stage 3 (I spend most of my time playing this), DDR Supernova, DDR Extreme, Pump it Up, A multicade with pretty much every classic on it, a Street Fight Machine that has all of the alphas and turbos and such, Time Crisis 4, Tekken 4 and 5, and Afterburner CLIMAX which is just about the coolest machine ever. The machine leans back and forth as you turn your plane. It even has a seat belt, so you know it's good. Okay, it's totally unnecessary, but still awesome.

Oh and I have a thing for Buckhunter machines. Luckily they have one of these so I can get in some Caribou killin' when I'm feeling it.

I would kill to blow my cash on Initial D at an arcade everyday, that is my highlight right there...

Here are some pictures of Gameworks in Seattle:

^ Love that place. I always try to go if I'm going to be up that way.

I have been to gameworks, I like those places.

I have a bowling alley right up the street from where I live which has a very impressive array of games. I don't think there are any games more recent than Tekken Tag Tournament, unfortunately, but it's still a fantastic variety. Off the top of my head, it has a 6-Slot Neo-Geo with Samurai Shodown, Puzzle Bobble, Magical Drop, Super Baseball 2020, League Bowling, and Super Dodgeball; Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Crazy Taxi, Soul Calibur, Virtua Cop 1 & 2, The House of the Dead 1 & 2, Daytona USA 1 & 2, Die Hard Arcade, Star Wars Arcade, Jurassic Park, Sega Bass Fishing, Virtua Tennis, Tekken 3, Galaga, Pac-Man, Centipede, 1942, Street-Fighter vs. X-Men, Hydro Thunder, and my personal favorite: Rad Mobile. They used to have a Donkey Kong, Jr. cabinet, but that broke down. So it's a pretty nice selection of mainstream hits. It's a blast to play Daytona USA 2 down there with friends, especially since you can't get that one on any home console.

I was surprised when I walked into the Seattle Gameworks, as I hadn't been there in a while due to it suddenly sucking. When I first moved out here they had a bunch of light gun games, then they removed them all, now they brought them back and have a few new ones like HotD 4. And then I saw the JP BB and SF4 cabs. If I didn't suck so bad at those games I'd give them a play.

Just came back from Reno, NV. Me and the wife went there to see Megadeth for our anniversary. Awesome show, BTW. I posted about it in the metal thread in the General Discussion forum here.

Just wanted to let people here know, especially Sega fans, that the Fun Quest arcade in the Grand Sierra hotel is fan-freaking-tastic. TONS of great Sega arcades there. I had a blast with the new After Burner arcade with a motion-seat, the oh-so-awesome Star Wars Trilogy Arcade (why have they not given us a home port of this stellar game yet?!), played some Batman Begins pinball, got my butt-kicked by my wife at air-hockey, and played the original House of the Dead which I was surprised to see because I usually see HotD 2 machines if any. They also had this awesome-looking touchscreen arcade that was a medieval sword fighting action game. I had run out of $1 & $5 at that point, so I didn't get to play it unfortunately.

Plus lots of ticket-games for the kiddies. There's also a mini-golf course, lazer-tag, those plastic tube jungle-gym things for kids, pool, skee-ball, air-hockey pinball tables, and even a shuffleboard room. And Round Table Pizza is right next door if you need a snack.

Any pics of the arcade by any chance? I simple love looking at other arcade locations that people go to.

Nope, sorry.
