Got the techs together. 1000005787.jpg

We invaded an arcade just to spend a little time to play.

The one thing I could tell about this place is that it is well loved by it's owners. The games were working. I think I saw an old museum of pinball machine game in there.

The walls were colorful and filled with posters playfields and Halloween props.

While i didn't used the bathroom, I did hear glowing reviews about the decor.

Was it worth the 20, For an all day ticket? Definitely. With the McDonald's muesum across the street. It just add to the value.

I swear if this place was closer to the la or orange county area this place would be packed but this little gem of a place is in a depressed area.

I wish the owners luck in their business.
Hats off to the people who keep this place repaired and running.

They handed out candy when we left. It was a nice touch.
 
I would say yes. If you look at the name tag on the dude with a beard you'll see the name. I've spoken to the owner a few times over the years to help him out. Good dude. Like Alpha said too bad it's in a really bad part of San Bernardino.
 
I've been there too, great space. I think the only reason they are able to stay open is because he owns the building. What I dont get is why someone would open up another arcade in the same area. The story about the arcade that got broken into overnight is the one I'm referring to. I think it's called Extraordinaire Arcade.

I hope the area can support more arcades. I think the whole area would benefit for restoration and rejuvenation.

Part of the arcade experience for me isn't just the games but the friends we drag along to experince the games with..

We are so busy with so much that we are responsible for. We need to make the time just to have fun with friends who enjoy arcade machines. Fun and memories bind us.
