He it way more than that before I started recording.

They moved to a larger location in St. Paul. They are in the Keg and Case building now. I have a tour of that location too.

@@IndieArcadeWave ohh that’s nice and convenient because I do live in St. Paul Can’t wait to go

I agree, it's a great arcade

Pretty solid convention arcade.

In what way? They have a great selection for their space. All of their pins are cool, I've only seen Hyperball at one arcade in Miami.

@@IndieArcadeWave Walmart from the late 90s early 00s. Don’t get me wrong, it is great selection, but it’s too small for me.

If shorts could be over a minute, it'd be more clear. They are video game developers. They work both in the arcade development space and the console space.

@@IndieArcadeWave sweet! I’d love to hear more. Very interesting stuff.

You clearly don't live anywhere near this area, there is no one beating a path to a rental space like this.

I don't think they are doomed. Small town people look out for each other. They aren't usually scummy greedy landlords like they are in the cities because the building could sit empty for years. I agree that owning the building would be beneficial in the long term, but it's not always in the cards. Maybe it's a move they will make in the future.

😂 in the future bro learn to read please.

@@IndieArcadeWavelike I said. It doesn’t matter. Also people in small home town areas have lost businesses. Go up to Redding California and look at all the small hometown arcades closing and big local stores. Whatever!

@@dragongamer2670 you are the least helpful kind of commentary and again as someone who lives in the area, I agree the would be better off if they owned the building. But you just don't start a reply with 😂 unless you are trying to be an a**hole

A super hard, great game!

I knew you'd catch the shoutout! Can't wait to hang out at BumbleBash and when I visit Orlando.

I have heard of them. I would love to have them on the show. Let them know you want to hear their story.

That'd be a sick basement! Money well spent.

Pay at the door, and it's all on freeplay. I think it was $25, and if you pay an extra $7, you get into the pinball building down the street, too. I might be off on prices, but that's what I remember.

Man, I'm all the way in Seattle, Wa. Watching your video makes me want to fly out there just for this 😊

Tomorrow, I believe they will be adding game 1002. When I filmed this, they had 984 games. It's the largest arcade in the world.

You'll love it!

Are you going to the Nashville one? This tour is pretty outdated now.

That is a great pin. I feel like you see them pretty often. Nightmare is something you don't see much.

I don't remember if they bring cabinets to that or not. I might make it to 2d con for bit.

Yeah, I know they have a lot of people working on cabinet. At a point, it gets hard to keep 1000 games in perfect running condition. They have a place where you can report issues. Most arcade owners don't know there is a problem until a guest tells them.

@chrischristiansen6204 Yeah, the arcade space has grown a lot in the last few months.

@joshnewman6667 you'll have a blast, have you been there before?

So much better in a cabinet!

@@IndieArcadeWave Aye, DESIGNED to be in a cabinet! Let us not forget that Nidhogg and its brilliant sequel pay great homage to Joust and its brilliant sequel! It's an amusement game at its core and thus deserves the format that completes it!

I found one in Osaka in a mall that has 40+ pinballs. I'm trying to find the name of it. Once I find it, I'll let you know. It's on my list of stops when I visit Japan later this year.

@@IndieArcadeWave Thanks so much! I was planning a road trip to Osaka and it would be great to visit! Just telling me that I checked the Japanese web and found it: "The Silver Ball Planet"

That stuff can get pretty expensive now, too. Gamecube stuff is hard to find these days.

@@IndieArcadeWave StarFox Adventures is one of those hidden gems that’s still fun to play today

I only know of one, and it's in a private collection. I haven't seen it in the wild in a really long time.

@@IndieArcadeWave Thanks. I'll see it pop up on pinball maps but when I call the arcade it is always the wrong machine.

Yeah, while you're in the area I'd check out Can Can Wonderland, and Litt Pinball.

Big platform of candy cabs upstairs. It's new as of a few months. It was added after Combo Breaker, so around April it was added.

Está inspirado en Windjammers, sí, es el único en el mundo y su desarrollador tiene base en Buenos Aires.

If you like arcade games and QC Pizza you will love it!

@DD01880 They have all of that and an awesome layout so everyone is spread out in the arcade. I love the Candy Cab island, tons of space for fighting games.

@dj10bear I only visited this one time. I can't even imagine how much work it is to manage these pins and over 1000 cabinets. I'm sure it takes a ton of time to fix everything.

They take great care of them. If there is an issue, they fix it right away or pull a new game out if it needs major repairs.

@mopbrothers The arcades in MOA aren't doing well, they have been closing or getting bought out over the last 5 years.

@@Domingo95x glad you saw it. Thanks for checking it out.

Yeah, it's one of the biggest in the state for classic arcade games. It's my favorite.

The only ones I see are them. They own the pizza spot, too. I know there are still a few small shops in there, but I don't remember what's open. They all have weird hours.

@andybungert yeah I've only seen the boards in new cabinets for Ninja Baseball Batman, I did play one at Galloping Ghosts. Warlords is super fun. We just finished making a 4-player Food Fight with them, too.

Where do you live? There might be a good arcade near you.

@thevideogamerconsortium6180 It was a fun game, the community didn't transfer the way they expected them to.

@@IndieArcadeWave I'm not sure why that turns into the removal of a game from Steam. I have a GROWING local group of folks who LOVE playing this game. Having it on Steam and being able to play and form games online would... CERTAINLY HELP THE COMMUNITY lol. Am I missing a key piece of drama that explains what happened to the digital versions of Killer Queen? I'm FIENDING OVER HERE!

@@thevideogamerconsortium6180 The servers cost money. I don't know the whole story. I think it was a decision between Liquid Bit and BumbleBear to discontinue the servers. You can dig more into that if you want. I don't have all the info.

@@IndieArcadeWave Then make it where we can setup and run our OWN local server the way it used to be!!! I have friends all over the country and we played the crap out of KQB and now we cant... It SUCKS!!!! BRING IT BACK!!

Agree, that would be cool. And people use steam remote play and parsec to play online too. And if you have it on steam there is still obline games beening hosted in the beta build! I played 6 players in my apartment for the first time two days ago, it was so fun! ​@@neccros007

Yeah, that's a good spot to be. Yeah, the 6-player X-men is hidden, super nice.

I did a tour for Can Can too. I love both places, Can Can has much older games. Starcade has a great selection and is pay to get in just like Can Can.

They have a bunch, I loaded all of those onto a semi after Combo Breaker. Go check em out.

Those are a lot harder to find. You don't see a ton of Taito stuff or Atari stuff. When you do come across it, it's sprinkled into the arcades.

Shame. Taito had the best arcade games. At least the fantasy games were a lot better than most.

@@Aloysius10 I agree they had some great games. I don't know if they just didn't sell as well or what, I just don't see nearly as many of them as other stuff in arcades.

Maimai Is really fun, I was with the owner when they bought it. Great addition to the arcade.

@jmssun that could work, I wonder how you would fix the TV? You'd have to make the board think it was running 2 screens.

@@IndieArcadeWave If the board has two outputs, just use a AB screen combiner as source for the projector The laser projectors have really good black level relative to other projectors, and saturation and brightness is incredible, I think it will look really good On top of that, if you can get one of those short-throw projectors, you only need to put it around 20-30cm away from the screen to get a 120-150” screen I have such setup in my living room for movie content, it fills up the wall

Home consoles put arcades out of business back in the 90's, they aren't competing anymore. The gaming space is growing year over year, new arcades are opening up constantly all over the country. This arcade has been open since 2015.

I agree, this is a real arcade. I love hanging out at Starcade. I wish I could have seen arcades back in the day, I was born a bit too late for that. I'm glad I get to see this new wave.

How did you get a free Mario hat?

@@IndieArcadeWave last year during the Mario movie. They had a bunch of red Mario hats, which I asked how much and he said, free for anyone who asks about them.

@@failuretothink the power of the ask! That's awesome.

Yeah we were talking about Shuuz before recording. With all the uncommon games they have we are bound to miss some.
