here's a pic of an aussie arcade member at an arcade in LA/NYC/Williamsburg.

Name the game and the arcade!

Looks like possibly barcade brooklyn but i cant tell what game by the tiny pic. I'm actually wearing my barcade tshirt at this moment too lolz.

EDIT: I retract my barcade vote. Barcade does not have that many games line up facing the bar, you would have to be in the corner to take that shot and I would see a paperboy controller in the background. And the bar there sticks out because the cooler is there.

No, it's definitely Barcade. Looks like a game of Tetris.
 
the arcade: :)
righto guys, it's definately Barcade! got that one pretty quickly ! :D

the game: :confused:
cant be make trax, radius of the curves are too small and the angle/shape of the header looks wrong
 
Zoo Keeper...

Jungle King...

same as space dungeon - wrong cab header section shape for that. note even a badly installed the marquee in a taito would lay back that far!

nice try; you can do it guys i know you can!
do you call your self arcaders or not ? :p *tries to throw down the gauntlet* *falls down with a hernia after picking the gauntlet...*
 
From that little pic, you're lucky we can see any games at all.

Here it is bigger:

With that other game looking like it's butting in on the top left, it's hard to see. Might be a Ladybug, but it does look like it has two joysticks, and someone playing Crazy Climber would use both, not one.

Unless it's a multigame board...
 
not sure what the current line up is and as to how often they rotate the games but when I went in 2009 this was the line up as pasted from my blog:

1943 *horrible screen burn in
Zaxxon

Then the first big row of games are on the left :

Tapper
Dig Dug
Frogger
Marble Madness
Punch Out!
Moon Patrol
Donkey Kong
Asteroids
Rampage
Ghost N' Goblins
Bezerk
Lady Bug

Then a smaller row of games by the 2 tables / bench area:

Centipede
Arkanoid *spinner felt wobbly ; or broken
Q*Bert

keep going around or if your walking in from the front door on the right you will see this row of games:

Sinistar
Tetris
Galaga *Icade PCB installed? :-(
Ms. Pac-Man *bad condition metal control panel was cracking / had a hole in it
Pengo
Outrun
Rolling Thunder
Crystal Castles
**Robotron 2084 not working unplugged near the bathroom
 
Umm... ok? :confused:

sorry brien! an ozzie gameshow thing...:D

oh, and having another look at that photo, you guys were right about that other cab in the foreground obscuring the cab being played! had me fooled.

modessit wins!
