Man, that looks even better than the arcades I hung out at when I was a kid. None of them were as well-cared for as I'm sure this guy's arcade is!

The only thing it is missing from my childhood is the pimpled faced teen selling weed in the bathroom! Very cool.

Brings back memories, I grew up in Orlando Florida and the malls had an arcade franchise called Aladdin's Castle... they were great.

How cups at the change machine to hold the quaters, talk about classy.
Other than that and a wackload more gum on the floor and a couple of cigarette burns on stuff, looks like where I spent a fair amount of time as well.

I remember Aladdin's Castle LoL We had a few in NY back in the day. Oh the hours and hours spent in there with my cousins while our moms shopped in the mall.... that was of course until I hit 12 or 13 and realized the mall, and the moms, held more wonder and booty than the little den of flashing lights and whiny cousins who couldn't take losing to a girl.
And then oddly enough, around 17 or 18 I spent massive amounts of time in there once again with my boyfriend. He also got whiny when he lost :rolleyes:
