He hit like 3 cars
He it way more than that before I started recording.
This location still open?
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
pretty cool spot
I agree, it's a great arcade
Wow 🔥🔥🔥
Pretty solid convention arcade.
Looks like an arcade out of an Walmart
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.
Get started with what stuff?
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.
Not to sound bad. I think this arcade is doomed once the renter raise the price. I have even seen the best Arcades in the world shut down and even in Japan because a company takes over the buildings. That will sadly be the end of this Arcade. They need to own the building to survive in the future. Sad Truth!
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
G N G is a great game indeed.
A super hard, great game!
19:39 Jai-Alai Heroes crew here! 🫶🏻 Great episode!
I knew you'd catch the shoutout! Can't wait to hang out at BumbleBash and when I visit Orlando.
Another great video about the scene. I appreciate the frank discussion about the potential hostility from the FGC. Definitely something worth mentioning to anyone thinking of joining the scene in the year 2024... Have you heard of Yetee Station in Aurora, IL? It's yet another awesome arcade/pinball place in the Chicagoland area. Would love you see you connect with the owner and cover it!
I have heard of them. I would love to have them on the show. Let them know you want to hear their story.
If I was to will the lottery. That would be my basement.
That'd be a sick basement! Money well spent.
Do you pay an door entry fee and all the games are free to play? Or do you pay each arcade machine that you want to play?
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 😊
Ok so let me try and understand here I am 5 min in the video and you are not sticking on any arcades moving in a steady paste and...........the video is 52 min long ?!? How many arcades are in this place 😅 i would spend a hole day there and would not have enough 😁😍
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.
Wizard! I just watched it on LD! So many Cyber Leads! Can't wait to visit!
You'll love it!
I’m so excited to visit this bar/arcade later this year! ❤❤❤❤
Are you going to the Nashville one? This tour is pretty outdated now.
That thing is crispy!
Nice to see a Nightmare on Elm Street with an intact glove kicker. Too bad they are missing Medieval Madness. (My favorite machine).
That is a great pin. I feel like you see them pretty often. Nightmare is something you don't see much.
I wonder if they will be there at 2 d con
I don't remember if they bring cabinets to that or not. I might make it to 2d con for bit.
was there this weekend. still a great place but too many of the games that I was looking forward to playing are compromised by a faulty joystick/button or just outright turned off. would rather see them double the maintenance efforts rather than adding more and more games.
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.
I havent seen that ghost one since I was a kid in chucky cheese. The doll house thing is super cool. Looks like they expanded quite a bit.
@chrischristiansen6204 Yeah, the arcade space has grown a lot in the last few months.
Coming saturday
@joshnewman6667 you'll have a blast, have you been there before?
Too electronic -- real pinball machines don't have LED score displays! They have rolling discs with the numbers on the edge.
PHENOMENAL!!!
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!
Would absolutely love a place like this in Japan... The most pinball tables I've seen in one place here could be counted on two hands with enough fingers left over for the flippers
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"
I still have everyone of my 64 and GameCube games in my office. Shit 20 years later. It is cool to have a collection like that.
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 am in the Midwest and I'm desperately trying to find an Indiana Jones - The Pinball Adventure Williams machine from the early 90's.
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.
I gotta gota Minnesota
Yeah, while you're in the area I'd check out Can Can Wonderland, and Litt Pinball.
I didn't know they had Japanese cabs upstairs! Dungeons and Dragons: Shadows Over Mystara is one of my favorite beat-em ups ever.
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.
Es como una especie de windjammers no?
Está inspirado en Windjammers, sí, es el único en el mundo y su desarrollador tiene base en Buenos Aires.
You had me at "QC Pizza". I really need to check this place out.
If you like arcade games and QC Pizza you will love it!
This reminds me of my early 90s childhood growing up. The good 'ol days of the arcade where we as kids and teens running towards the arcade shop and hangout. 😄 You need the Sunset Riders arcade cabinet. X-Men is the ultimate classic, nice. You need fighting games!
@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.
cool place but a lot of pins there are in dire need of help. some have had the same bulbs out for 4+ years!
@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.
The machines all look fantastic. 👍🏻
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.
Odd they wouldn’t put this big arcade in Mall of America where everyone goes. Still it looks cool.
@mopbrothers The arcades in MOA aren't doing well, they have been closing or getting bought out over the last 5 years.
i was looking for footage from the memorable yet infinitely disappointing Starcade 97, but this is still pretty cool tho
@@Domingo95x glad you saw it. Thanks for checking it out.
Holy this is a big arcade!
Yeah, it's one of the biggest in the state for classic arcade games. It's my favorite.
Wow they've got the monopoly of Keg's space now. What other vendors are still in there?
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.
YES! Someone told me last year that you had a Ninja Baseball Batman! <3 Also heard (many years ago) that that cab is also like 50 or less in the US. Played one in Chicago 10 years ago and haven't seen one since. I gotta come by :) Ohhhh snap and the Warlords repro! One of my favorite 2600 games!
@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.
That place looks amazing.. Need something like that where I live.
Where do you live? There might be a good arcade near you.
BRING KILLER QUEEN BLACK BACK!!! I NEED IT. please... PLEASE!
@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
Mmmm, that MvC wall with a Turtles cabinet! I know where you’d find me. Edit: and 6-player X-men!? My brother and I beat that weekly when we were kids.
Yeah, that's a good spot to be. Yeah, the 6-player X-men is hidden, super nice.
My daughter just took me to Can Can Wonderland. It was pretty fun. Now I oddly got suggested this video. I’ll have to see when she has time to go. This looks awesome!
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.
Whaaaaatttttty candy cabs?!?!?!?!?!? I must go nowwwwwww
They have a bunch, I loaded all of those onto a semi after Combo Breaker. Go check em out.
I want to find an arcade with Taito games.
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.
Might be visiting in December! Excited for the Rhythm games section especially maimai!
Maimai Is really fun, I was with the owner when they bought it. Great addition to the arcade.
You may be able to use just one 4k laser projector to get even more uniform experience and better color reproduction
@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
Good luck.. Home console put most arcades out of business.
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.
this is what you call a REAL ARCADE!! this is what i used to frequent a lot in my teenage days in the early 90s. Pizza, hotdogs, and games and girls!!! That's all we had back then!!!! Love this!!!!
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.
Great arcade, it's been a little bit since I've been there, but I did get a free Mario hat!
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.
Glossed over that Shuuz! And Off the wall is super fun.
Yeah we were talking about Shuuz before recording. With all the uncommon games they have we are bound to miss some.
