Just got back with my family for a day in Santa Cruz, of course I had to stop and play some games at the main arcade which to my surprise wasn't at the same location as before. I was pleased that they moved it to a different location which was much larger and had more games to play. I also noticed they moved their pinball machines but not as they way they had it before (2 rows) it's allot smaller, the pinballs were in bad shape with dirty playfields and flippers that were sticking or not working .Overall it was a great day and wanted to post some pictures just in case anyone from out of town was comming to CAX and wanted to stop in Santa Cruz for some fun!

This was the original location to the classic arcade

This picture was funny, my Daughter saw the pinballs and asked for some tokens saw the small step stool grabbed it and started to play the pinball by herself Classic! (she's 3 )

Nice pics. Always love seeing pics of the boardwalk.

What building are the classics in now? Kinda upsetting cause I remember playing DK and Punch Out in that lil dark classic corner they had. Ill be there next month to check it out.

Thanks! The classics are in the same building but towards the left side across from the shooting gallery.
