CABINETS
Classic arcade cabinets, golden-age icons, modern light-gun and racing rigs, a custom 2-team battle station, and a claw machine. Token-operated. Each card links to Wikipedia or the manufacturer for the full story.
Minnesota-made indie space-shooter cabinet. Team Beta vs Team Gamma, up to four-player asteroid-brawl arena that mashes up Asteroids, Galaga, and Demons to Diamonds.
4K HD reboot of the long-running light-gun hunter. Twin orange shotguns, new and classic safari maps, side trick-shot mini-games.
Light-gun horror shoot-'em-up. Pump-action shotguns blast zombies, clowns, and undead carnies across a haunted big top. The carnival rises from Greely Valley Cemetery (no relation to Greeley, we checked).
Single-player Batmobile combat. 42" HD screen, force-feedback wheel with batarang triggers, custom Batman-shaped seat, 500+ color-shifting LEDs, glowing Bat-Signal overhead.
Side-by-side sit-down street racer. Muscle cars and tuners, a nitrous boost button, and linked cabinets so two players can race head to head.
Pop-art prize crane stuffed with plush. Drop the claw, line up the grab, watch it slip at the last second. The white whale of token spend.
Dave Theurer's Cold War defender. Trackball aims the crosshair, three missile bases, six cities to save. Difficulty escalates until it doesn't.
Dona Bailey and Ed Logg's fixed shooter. Blast a wriggling centipede through a mushroom field with the trackball. Spiders, scorpions, fleas. Golden-age icon.
Shigeru Miyamoto's platformer debut. Climb girders, dodge barrels, save Pauline from a giant gorilla. Introduced Mario (then "Jumpman") to the world.
Fixed-shooter classic. Dodge enemy formations, get tractor-beamed, rescue your ship for dual-fighter mode and amplified firepower.
Faster, smarter sequel built by hackers at General Computer Corp. Four maze layouts, moving bonus fruit, less predictable ghost AI. Many consider it the best Pac-Man.
Franz Lanzinger's trimetric maze chase. Run Bentley Bear through 3D castles collecting gems. One of the first arcade games with an actual ending.
Atari's two-player simultaneous take on the puzzle classic. Drop blocks, clear lines, send junk rows to your rival's side. Pioneered "marathon" play.
The version that made every arcade matter. Mirror matches enabled, all four boss characters playable, full rebalance pass. Hadoukens, Shoryukens, lifetime rivalries.
First MK in 3D graphics. New weapon system lets you pull a sword mid-combo. Gameplay still mostly on a 2D plane, with sidestep dodges. Finishers intact.
Four-player co-op hack-and-slash dungeon crawl. Warrior, Valkyrie, Wizard, Archer. Feed it tokens, feed the heroes turkey, beat the boss. "Wizard needs food badly."
Free-to-play multi-game cocktail. 100+ classics built in. Sit, play, no tokens required. Pull up a stool with a drink.
SKEEBALL
CLASSIC WOODEN-ALLEY SKEEBALL
Roll wooden balls up the ramp, drop them in the rings, rack up points. The game was invented in 1908 by Joseph Fourestier Simpson of Vineland, New Jersey, and has been the staple of American boardwalk arcades ever since. Token-operated. Plays solo or take turns with a group.
- Token-operated, all ages
- Classic ring-target scoring
- Bring a crew, run a tournament
AIR HOCKEY
FAST-PUCK GRUDGE MATCH
Regulation-style table with the air on, the puck moving, and someone going home humbled. Best two of three, settle a debt, claim the trophy. Token-operated and ready any time we are open.

- Great for parties and date-night tiebreakers
