Any arcades in Chicago?

[Zud]

In setting up my arcade I am running into issues too. As I am unwrapping my games there are minor issues: no speech on Gauntlet, No gas on APB, rolling monitor on Galaxian. More issues then I was expecting, but I will get it all working soon.

if your in the chicago area near logan square / bucktown, stop over to our record store / vintage arcade museum.

we are just off of 94, at the corner of western and fullerton. the arcade room has 40 videogames and a few pins.

bubbles and tapper just went down... but everything else on the floor is working and in pretty good condition.

here is a video with some images of the place:

Posting here just to recommend MrDrPants arcade. Its all classics and for the most part are pretty much well kept up.

I was up there for the DK 101 class early this year and left a few high scores behind (of course, I think that was the debut of the arcade that day as well)

Speaking of .. were any t-shirts made from that day? I remember talk of it, but haven't seen anything.

a few different printers could not come through with the shirts for a reasonable price so, i just learned how to do it myself! we are going to set up some screens and see if we can kick em out here at our place. i know its been a while, but better late then never, right?
