I visited "Fantasy Island" on Long Beach Island, NJ. This arcade was open during the golden years of the arcade. This is the arcade where I first playing "Tron" all those years
ago. So I return there after all those years and almost cried. I went in and found no classics, no real arcades at all. There was one Ms pacman/Galaga reunion machine, thats it. Basically this place is a gambling hall. All the redemption games are basically gambling devices. I went in and stood were the Tron sat all those years ago, and just remebered the golden years.

Sorry for the wussy moment......
 
Yeah, I've been going to LBI for vacation every year since I was a kid. There used to be a couple good arcades down there. Only games left at Fantasy Island are those games you spend tons of money on to get tickets. fun for kids, poopy for gamers.
