PONG. Back when it was still originally in marketing and circulation. What's not to love? Simple, straightforward, easy to figure out.

No age remarks from the peanut gallery ...

Sadly, none of the malls within a 50 mile radius of me have one. Though the one that's closest seems to have a 'space' (aka: an empty storefront, one of many in that mall) set aside for RPGers - which would be very cool, except I've never seen it in use.

Maybe the kids in this area are doing something far more nefarious to get away from folks like me Teh Old Farts. (Now I really feel like I'm missing out.)

But aren't you guys in a fairly liberal city with stuff young folk enjoy doing? I think arcades probably do better in areas with actual old farts way outnumbering the likes of us?

Yeah, I'm told there are Roller Derbys and Gay Bars and Head Shops and Concerts, and so on and so forth. I've never personally witnessed any of those things here, but my go-to weekend refuge is still The Mall. :-p So, yeah, I never really outgrew my teenaged habits, and I am, in fact, one of Teh Old Farts myself these days, so the lack of arcades in this area (or, more accurately, their location) will likely remain a mystery...
