When's the last time you were in an arcade?

I honestly can't remember the last time.

If you count Chick E Cheese, then it's been a couple years (but going this weekend). But if you count an actual sestablishment who's only service is being an arcade... then it's been probably 10-15 years or so.

Oh actually I was at a Dave and Busters about 6 or so years ago...

Anyway, what about anyone else?

Is that like Hooters for the kiddies? Or maybe a strip buffet? :p

It's definitely been years. Probably since 1998 or so since I was last at a "real" arcade. Never really had an interest in them anymore once I started getting into PC gaming...

Back when Street Fighter 2 was still popular. Maybe 7 or 8 years ago.

1998 or so... Soul Calibur and San Fransisco Rush 2049. The manager of the arcade would come out and give me a bunch of free credits to play against him.

Hmm ... a year or so ago I met up with some friends at a gameworks. I mostly hung out at the bar there though and played pool. For the most part, that place is just a huge arcade though.
