A few weeks ago, I stopped by the place formerly known as Galaxy World in Carol Stream, IL. only to find out that the doors were shuttered. The place was a ghost town for a long time in the 2000s, but the game room was still functional and actually had a decent number of games left in it. It was an extension of the Brunswick Zone bowling center.
In the 80s the bowling alley was known as Gala Lanes and Galaxy World was the attached arcade that drew in hundreds of people on any given weekend. It was also the testing grounds for some new arcade games (mainly Williams) through the '90s.
Now, I wonder where the rest of their games went. I didn't hear of any local auction (unless I totally missed it), but if they're being held somewhere for any future auction, I'd like to at least go and check it out.
Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks.
