I'm finding it impossible to even go to "modern" arcades now. Dave & Busters IMO feels way too synthetic.

Yes, they have the games but there is something missing. I can't place it but its too.....clean.

Arcades need to be dark, dusty, dirty, filled with ill-tempered competitive people who want to fist fight you after you perform Scorpion's fatality in Mortal Kombat on them.


IT ONLY BLOCK, UP, UP! STOP TRYING TO KNIFE ME!!!!


sorry....arcade flash back.

What's missing is the fact that arcades used to be a place to kill an afternoon. Now, with a console in every home, who needs to go to an arcade?
