I came across this while searching near me on goby, found an "arcade" near me:

Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.

The idea is great, but it needs more help from the little people, such as myself, on keeping the game lists up to date. I have actually gathered a bit of data for the site but I haven't forwarded it to any of the administrators for inclusion in the database.
If we used this site regularly, keeping it up to date on games/location, it would be a great resource for all of us...
Great place run by a great guy, doesn't get the attention it deserves. I was a member there before I was here, haha
I know that a lot of people are looking to play arcade games around me, and they don't know where the machines are. I found the best way to know where the machines are is to ask the Operators. There aren't many "Arcades" anymore, but OPs still put machines out on routes.
Will your operators tell you where games are? The ops around here will not tell anyone where their games are out of fear of competition. Instead, I have to go into every place that I think a game may be present and look.
BTW, I just signed up for an account on Aurcade and submitted a few locations. If the creator wants it to be used more then he needs to make it more user friendly. In order to post a new location I had to search through the forums for a thread that described how to do it. Of course, that thread had a title that I would have never opened when looking for this information. A link to the submission form on the front page would make things much more user friendly. I also don't like the form used to add games owned to my account. KLOV has a much easier to use form and all of my games are present. I gave up after a few games on Aurcade due to my games not being in the database.

I just added a few others and Head On, Avalanche, and Super Space Fortress Macross are not on the list. I was able to add a few more but I stopped after finding three missing...
Wow! I didn't know there was an arcade game based on Macross! I will fire that up in MAME tonight!
There are actually two or three of them. They are all Raiden clones but they are still pretty cool.

Thanks Chris, I have added those to my collection.
