Caine's Arcade

Post by noiseredux »

have you guys seen this?

This 9 year old made arcade machines out of cardboard boxes and stuff and apparently it's now an actual "arcade" you can go and pay to check out...

There's also a documentary about it that is screening now.

I don't know what to say. Is the calculator one supposed to be Tempest?

That is awesome and warms my cold, dead heart.

Has anyone else tried donating something to the scholarship fund via PayPal? I am getting an error of "there are problems with the address associated with this account" message. I'd hate to think that PayPal shenanigans are going to rob this kid of a scholarship opportunity during his 15 minutes of fame...

Yeah, love when I see kids out there doing gaming stuff like this. This kid rocks.

This wasn't enough to warm my dead heart, however.
