Born 1971 so by 1984 I was 13 and spent the rest of the 80's as a teenager, arcades everywhere, especially when I was 12 and 13. I remember an all you can play place (I think it was $5 for the night) that I would go to with my older brothers (I am the baby of three boys) where my folks would drop us off and come pick us up at midnight, basically a night off for my folks LOL. arcade games at the front of grocery stores to occupy kids' time while parents shopped and begging mom or dad for more quarters, every corner store had a Pac Man, Asteroids, Donkey Kong, Space Invaders etc, not to mention the music, the 80's was a great time to be a kid.
