I was thinking you could decorate the walls with cut up credit cards.

I think the supermarket sounds like a totally rad idea.

Not a bad idea, you could decorate your walls with cereal boxes and cans of beans.
Huh. Why not just build shelves all over the arcade room and store your groceries on them in the open then? Give it a real super-market feel. Just make sure they line up nicely. It will free up storage in the kitchen for your tokens.

Go with the turtle theme and have one of these as your centerpiece. Seriously.
+100 and call your new arcade Crinkled Castles
He needs to call it Gameracade and put up some Gamera movie posters (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamera).

This may be a shock to some but I am not a TMNT fan. Yes I do own one shirt my wife bought me but I rarely wear it. I watched the show when nothing else was on.
Don't want to do random stuffed animal turtles and such as we have already done the guest bathroom and the front porch with fake turtles.
Not to big on Mario so don't want to go that way.
A mural with a real pic of a lake/pond with turtles would be cool but probably expensive. Another idea would be to have 2 glass tanks with my biggest common and biggest alley snapper for showcase. But that would be expensive.
My holy grail for the supermarket idea would be the Big Star sign from Dumas, AR. But that was going to cost me 500 bucks + 1600 to have it taken down. Then I would have to have it wrapped and transported here and pay someone to install and hook it up for me. Way to much money.

You'll ask for ideas, people will offer them, you'll turn them all down and ultimately do nothing.

Or, he will take a COMPLETELY different path, ignoring all suggestions and putting it all on credit.

You offered it as option # 3:
after saying this:
What do you think people are gonna go with? Seriously though, I know you'll ultimately do nothing, so I offer Fritz's write-in choice of an entire wall of Televangelist's Penises painted white. You could get Billy Graham's, Peter Popoff's, Jim Bakker's, etc. Perhaps even suspend halo's over some of the smaller ones to make them look larger.
Are any of those fine gentlemen the guy who would touch people on TV and they would faint? That shit fascinated me as a kid.
