Did my semi daily CL scan using "arcade" as the search term and came up with this: http://houston.craigslist.org/bfs/1540447788.html

This may explain the game posted in a thread a while ago with the extra "joystick" found inside it. :eek:

That goes back to the original meaning of the word "arcade". Not porn necessarily, lol but small individual rooms or 'areas' with entertainment in them. There's one in downtown Charlotte where I live that's over 100 years old! "Latta Arcade"
 
i suspect for the adult industry it's less an issue of the economy (though that may certainly factor in,) and more the ubiquitousness of free and cheap adult content on the internet served right into the home.
 
There is an adult store for sale in the STL area that pops up when you search ARCADE too. Economy must be rough on everyone! lol

It is a HARD business to run. I do not know why anyone would pay for porn when it is free all over the net
 
If you buy the one in Houston during your buying spree through Texas, do I get a finder's fee ;)

That's been around the Houston CL for at least 3 years.

The price has dropped from something like $70-80K when I first noticed it.

Quite a discount -- guess nobody wants porn shops anymore.
 
Those are some cabinets that would need to be burned! Also, trying to familiarize yourself with the product would take forever. :rolleyes:
