I would love old school arcades. I feel like, most people today just don’t know what a wonderful place they used to be.
No stupid toys to win. No tickets. No tokens or any virtual currency.
Most games were a quarter with some of the larger ones being two quarters. You just hung out, played games, met new people, got to experience a wide range of games from shooters, side scroller fighters, sports, etc.
It was truly magical. Was one of the best things at the mall.

Yeah, the games would allow you to continue from where you died for another quarter, as long as you got it in fast enough

Remember the panic you felt as you tried fishing around for a quarter while watching the timer count down?
