I've taken pictures plenty of times, but I finally have done a video walkthru. Clicking the image below will take you to the web page to play the video.

 
This is the undisputed, most amazing home arcade I've ever seen. Everything detail down to the pizza parlor style table is just perfect.
 
Yep, the Pizza booth is the best part of the room. I could sit there all day.

The cool thing about the booth was that it was a free Craigslist pickup, besides the $15 in product it took me to refinish it. I did the top in a candy apple red with a polyurethane finish, then stripped and sanded the metal and did it in rustoleum black. Then I put plastic squares on the legs so it wouldn't dig into the carpet.

I didn't see your arcade. All I saw was some bar you filmed. You must work there or something and took that video before the bar was open.

Who leaves there kid alone in a bar?

:D
 
I seriously don't know how it could be any cooler!!?
It HAS to be fun showing that to people that have never seen it before.
I bet you get some really cool reactions from people.....

I get asked alot if I do that as a business, do I charge people to come over or have parties, etc. I just tell them its a childhood dream come true, it is not a business besides occasional buying and selling to fund the hobby, and its ALL FREE for anyone who comes over.

Yeah, I'd say you have reached your childhood dream! In fact I think you've reached ALL our childhood dreams with your set up! Could you IMAGINE having access to a free arcade like that as kid......god I would have thought I'd of died and gone to heaven......
I used to think the few games the guy on silver spoons had in his house was the coolest thing EVER!
