sounds like we have an untapped market missing ...
"barcade" = hard alcohol, "beercade" = beer/wine only.

I got that link from the Drudge Report (of all places).
The Drudge Report is a convenient homepage, isn't it.
So, is the motto "Come for the games, stay for the beer." or "Come for the beer, stay for the games." ???

1984 in Wilmington is much better, IMO.
If you feel threatened by a larger selection of games, beers and
attractive women, then yes, that place is light years better.

All of our kids are going to grow up playing arcade games and they will fill the void. If they don't just blame yourselves for failing as parents.
I must consider myself a failure. My kids are now grown and off on their own, but when they were home, I simply could NOT get them to appreciate arcade games. The ONLY time they would ever play them was when their FRIENDS came over, and went all starry-eyed about how "they had the coolest basement EVER!!!". I guess they were OVER-exposed, and thought it was just "normal" to have an arcade in your basement.
>mfw I just learned that OneNine is old enough to "have kids grown and off on their own"

seriously, wtf man
I don't know what "The Scene" is, but craft beer is a common term; nothing wrong with it.
I think it's just a change in terminology. When I was in college we used the term "micro-brew" to describe Rogue, Sierra Nevada, etc. At some point the good beer thing really took off and the "craft beer" terminology seemed to replace "micro-brew". I was still drinking said beer but I was not in the "the scene" so I didn't know what the hell people were calling it. I mean, it's fucking beer okay. But anywho, beer aficionados definitely do use the term "craft beer". My sister in law owns a bottle shop and she and all of her cronies say "craft beers"

Yep...they turn 25 and 27 this year, and are both productive members of society. But your "WTF" would be more appropriately directed at the fact that they don't care for arcade games!!!![]()
You know, my step-son is 22(will turn 23 next month), and an avid gamer. However, he shows very little interest in the classics. He did like playing Lunar Lander... but really hasn't gotten into any of the others.

I've been to two barcades and I can say they are here to stay. It's a bar. Young people go to bars to hang out. They just happen to have arcades. I know the ones in Manhattan and New Haven have food. They profit on beer consumption not arcades.
The Barcade in Philadelphia is Hipster Heaven. Full on beards everywhere. Great beer selection. It's fun but not on a weekend. 1984 in Wilmington is much better, IMO.
