My city has an incredible museum of play with a huge selection of pinball machines and video arcade games, so that's my advice if you wanna play arcade style: live near that

Mister Speaker posted:Arcade bars are not all they're cracked up to be. Most nights they're full of insufferable dweebs who smell like a MtG competition and have zero social skills and don't tip. On the weekends, the dorks are still there but then you also get the opposite; entitled college kids and feral bros who also don't tip and sometimes cause trouble. Hey, I may be a feral and entitled dork bro with zero social skills but I do not tip.

The most terrifying moment of a child's life a few decades ago was reading a Shel Silverstein book and seeing his picture on the dust jacket. A truly scary-looking dude.

There are like 5 arcades within walking distance/short bus ride of my house, what are yous talking about? They still take coins but also because it's 2023 you can get a card that you load credit onto and tap to play. One of them might be fully digital actually. memes        not true, oath of glory paladins get haste, which is great because it gets them another attack per round on which they can use smite     I don't normally do twitter text posts but this one is very true and good imo

The barcade near me is a lot of fun. It's a popular spot downtown so you don't really have a "smelly MtG dweeb" issue. It's got a nice collection of good pinball games, and good drink prices. Good stuff. My hometown also has a pinball museum where you can pay like $10-20 to enter and then play all the games you want.

A barcade is a place where befedora'd vapelemen gather to play arcade games drunk. A barcode is a place where befedora'd vapelemen gather to write arcade games drunk.

Brawnfire posted:Why does this keep happening to me Oh you might have been right. Unscrupulous arcade owners used to replace the balls with heavier ones to make people lose faster. Collectors hate their guts because it almost always hosed up the internals in a way that is fiddly and expensive to fix
