Has anyone else visited the nickel arcade in Rockford, IL. I checked it out yesterday and its pretty nice. You pay $1.75 admission to get in, then there is a wall of classic games (pac-man, DK, scramble, etc.) all set on free play. There are about 15 newer games for a nickel to 20 cents to play, and a bunch of play for ticket games if that is your thing. It was very nice. I plan to go a couple time a year. If your're in the Nothern IL area I recommend giving it a try.
Cheers

That sounds like Nickel City your talking about.
Out here in San Jose, we've got two of them.
There's one a few blocks from my house.
I enjoy going there. Love the selection of the Old and New Games.
