are the shit!
I Walked in with 5$
I stayed for over and hour, played a ton of real arcade games, and then played a ton of the cheap ticket winning games and walked out with a cheap hacky sack and 2 tigers eye bracelets.

There is at least 1 in portland.
They have 2 different auditoriums full of games. Ranging from shooting, to racing, to old school, to "test your skill" games, to jackpot games, to skiballl. Kinda like a chucky cheeses for big kids haha. And last night I went to an arcade that was also a bar, and you pay 5$ for the party and all games are free till 2:30AM

Arcades were fun as a child, but they've grossed me out pretty quick.
Most arcades have greased out buttons, and are absolutely disgusting. A lot of guys don't wash their hands after going to the restroom.
IMO arcade games should be limited to one's own computer/SNES

It can be fun to meet new people playing games with them in the arcade. Especially co-op games, Gauntlet Legends was good for that.
