I would love to have a barcade in my home town! Especially if it had old games like Pac-Man and Asteroids!!

But I live in a backwater country where the arcades only have late 90s crap and redemption games (and no bar).

I've never encountered this sort of thing.

I love old arcade, computer, and console games! :D I like the old pixel look to them, it feels nice.

Same! All of my siblings are way older than me, so I grew up in a household with an SNES and a bunch of games on floppy disks. One of my favorites was the Quest for Glory series because it was both an adventure and hilarious satire of medieval-style RPGs that were so popular back then.

Fun fact: Quest for Glory IV not only was the first ever voice acting role of Jennifer Hale, but it also had the official Disney voice actress for Minnie Mouse in it.

There's probably one within a few miles of you.
