Yeah arcades are WACK. The games on these modern consoles are just as good or better then the arcade games. Back when I waz growing up it waz a huge difference in both. SNES, Sega, Neo Geo etc were fun 2 play but if u wanted 2 up the ante u had 2 go 2 the Arcade. I remember when They use 2 have a bomb azz underground arcade in the mall out in Stockton when I waz growing up but in January of 1994 NSG, WS & the Mobb had a shoot out up in there & they closed it down & never opened it back up. I loved that arcade & them gang bangin niggaz fucked it up 4 everyone.
Occasionally I go to this amusement park where on Tuesdays you pay $10 and get to play unlimited arcade games. That's the only way I'll play. They're just way too expensive, usually being $1 or more to play. Fuck that. I remember when games used to be a quarter. I sound like an old person saying that.
The arcade game I sunk the most money into was Mortal Kombat 2 back in 7th grade. My friend lived near a shopping center, so we would ride our bikes to this donut shop that had MK2 for a quarter whereas every other place had is for 50 cents to play and continue. But this 25 cent MK2 did not have fatalities, so we would practice fighting on that and then walk over to Lamppost Pizza and play it with the fatalities and kick ass.

Yeah, its a Deluxe PF-290 Aero Dual Grip Polyurithane Striker. It does not have felt attached to the bottom as it is made for the higher-end air hockey tables that have scratch resistant playfields. The absence of the felt allows the mallet to float much like the puck allowing for smooth and quick movements. Its a beast.
If you ever go to a place like the ESPN Zone the games are the shit. They have motion sensor games and I know that they have a good shooting game at the movie theater in Vallejo where you have to move to hide behind stuff. Shit is hella expensive though. Does anyone know if they still have the nickle arcade somewhere. I remeber going their a long time ago but I forgot where it is.
