I went by local Namco arcade today and the doors were shut and the lights were cut off and all of the machines were up on dolly's and moved all around. I asked at the store next door if they were remodeling the arcade and he said no that they were closing it down for good and putting a dollar store in there.

The only arcade left in town was a Namco Arcade, and they split about a year ago on us, too. How gay that the best arcade in town is in my own fuckin' house. :oh_no:

And to think they ran out Aladin's Castle to put that shit hole up, only for it to leave. My town now has NO arcade. None.

I can definitely relate to that. With any luck we will see a few more advancements in online playability which will make more viable multiplayer options for those of us who miss the competition of another person who plays a game as much as we do.

To bad that nobody can come up with a Xband style modem for the AES or MVS.

Meh, online play will never be as much fun as playing people face-to-face. With fighting games, SF 3 in particular, the tiniest little bit of lag just ruins it for me. Anyway, that's pretty sad. The Tilt in my old hometown just shut down a few months ago. Now the only place for losers like me to hang out is on the internet. :crying:

there used to be a sega city near me that was pretty cool for fighting cades. there a dave and busters which i believe is a bar/arcade or something. and a nickel! nickel! nickel! arcade 2 blocks from me thats been in buisiness about 6 years now. never been in it though i think its a hangout for emo faggots and fat girls who think its punk to scream and yell when they talk.

oh yeah and they also charge a $5 cover to get in, or at least they did when it first opened and i checked it out. i told them to suck my tiny cock and left.
