• Discovering the Lost Ark
  on May 10, 2013
  According to InThe80s.com, the average price of a new car in 1983 was $6,100. Thirty years later in 2013, it's $30,000. Despite the fact that inflation drives prices higher every single year, for some reason people still associate playing arcade game...
• BlackBeards
  on Mar 13, 2013
  Ahoy! This time around we're going to talk about BlackBeards! BlackBeards has a very special place in my heart. A true 80s arcade that is still standing, I used to go here all the time as a kid (in the 80s). The arcade is set up to look like the insi...
• Round 1 Moreno Valley
  on Jan 3, 2013
  2012 saw a second Round 1 opening in California, this time in the Moreno Valley Mall. We decided to go check it out. Having just opened in September, it has a kind of a "new arcade" feel to it. I think it still has room to grow. When you first ent...

• Farsight Studios and The Pinball Arcade
  on May 26, 2012 in Pinball Pinball Arcade
  Normally a game like The Pinball Arcade is something that I wouldn't find out about until it's already been out for years, but I got lucky on this one. Farsight Studios made a game in 2009 called Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection. I just...
• King of Fighters '99 Character Portraits
  on Apr 29, 2012 in SNK KOF sprites
  I ripped the character portraits from The King of Fighters '99 for a project I'm working on, but I figured other people might have some use for them too, so here they are. I'm not used to making sheets and it looks pretty messy, but the sprites are a...
• Flynn's Arcade Closing and the Death of the Starcade
  on Mar 27, 2012 in Starcade Flynn's Arcade Grizzly Game Arcade Disneyland
  I finally made it inside Flynn's Arcade when I was down in Disneyland last month. I'll say that the arcade was just ok. It's a good thing I got in there when I did, because I just got word that Disney is closing Flynn's (and ElecTRONica) down on Apri...
• Gemini Arcade Palace
  on Mar 20, 2012 in Bemani Las Vegas
  The next stop in Las Vegas was the Gemini Arcade Palace!  The Gemini Arcade Palace is dark, cool, and popping with throbbing beats and flashing lights. It is a Bemani/rhythm/dance focused arcade. I could tell they care a lot about their arcade,...
