thanks for this! my husband and I will be moving to the Las Vegas area in the next 3 years or so, its nice to see a video thats just not based around a buffette, lol
As a Las Vegas resident I’m really excited to see what you cover on this channel. I feel like this city has so much to offer and I sincerely hope you got to see stuff outside of The Strip.
My memories of Las Vegas are from when my brother lived there. I remember my nephew being like 2-3 years old and he could name every single building on the strip. On the way to the airport he asked me what Hooters meant and I just told him they were referring to what owls say. He accepted that answer. But it made me laugh. Sadly he doesn’t have any memories of Las Vegas since they moved before he turned 4. Only that his sister was born there. Lol.
Great video, thank you for this. Your vids are always so relaxing, and these help a lot, especially now. Hope you and your family are safe and healthy. (Also I love Batzu-Maru, he’s so adorable!).
Great video! If I ever go there again I'm going to check out the pinball place. I like all of it, but haven't seen a mechanical pinball machine in a long time. The food court is a fun idea. I love how the Panda Express is right at the top of the escalator. Seems no matter where I go to a food court that's always where I end up!
The Space Pilot game at 10:32 looks vaguely familiar. When I was a young child in the mid-1970s, there was something very similar at the local airport. It involved piloting a helicopter instead of a spaceship, but the concept was the same. The nickelodeon is very cool -- I have seen one or two in working order at various museums.
Saw a hello kitty truck stuck at the mall in torrance, ca when I was on vacation in January. Must have been the traveling one from Irvine. I did take a pic of it, but didn't pay much attention to it.
I think the food court and the DSW shoe store are part of the Showcase Mall complex. I don’t remember what was in the spaces before them (and there were a few phases of that mall built over time), but that same complex had a GameWorks, a movie theater, and the World of Coca-Cola museum.
I remember seeing a Hello Kitty Cafe Truck when I visited Washington D.C. a few summers ago. It was set up in Crystal City by the mall there. Later on in the year, the same truck came to Pittsburgh where I live and was set up by the Ross Park Mall. It was actually really cool. The food was good but a bit expensive. They had unique Hello Kitty shaped macarons.
I live in Las Vegas, and I always watch Retail Archaeology when he's roaming in the Phoenix Area. Now I'm in the Phoenix Area and Retail Archaeology is roaming around in Las Vegas. My what interesting times we live in, now if you excuse me I'm going to roam around another dead mall.. Arizona Mills Mall
Chris Stevens I used to work at the Marshalls store at the Arizona Mills Mall during the time the store was being remodeled back in 2016. I now live in Henderson, NV.
Ranch 99s near me are normal sized supermarkets, but yea thats a pretty standard design for an asian food market, plenty of easy take out food during this thing.
DEAR GOD!! I've been looking for a working Sega Star Trek Console Game since I played one in the early 1980's...............!!!!! Scotty, beam me to Las Vegas!!
I've been there. 9 hour flight and me and a buddy were starving. I went in and he wanted Popeye's. I go in and order. Good was terrible but my buddy was livid. S homeless lady followed him in. Jumped in front of him and him buy her a meal. I called him Mark for the rest of the day
The Pinball Hall of Fame has an impressive collection of tables, but they're unfortunately not in very good condition. For example, the Star Trek: The Next Generation table seemed to be running a custom/hacked ROM, had a weak flipper and weak launcher, and glitched out constantly.
some butt jokes to go with the melon ones from PHOF huh? lol ... its been years since I've been there last but agreed that I can't recommend it enough... I was more an arcade fan than a pinball one but either way you'll definitely find something to kill time in an afternoon there. a must-visit if this pandemic ever ends!
Galloping ghost in brookfield, IL outside chicago is also fantastic. Think they had almost 300 classic arcade games last time I was there. $20, play all day
The neon made the food court perfect
We all hate covid but one positive thing is that we see old video’s which we might never have seen. Thanks again for another great video, keep it up!!
Its completely DEAD now but it will be alive once this crisis is OVER. Be safe, brotha!! 🙏
2014 will be here before you know!
I'm pretty sure you can't even get an occupancy permit for a food court unless there is a subway in it
from retail archaeology to retail therapy XD
Stay home, stay safe, stay sane. I can tell this was filmed before the quarantine. This is my home city, and the strip is an absolute ghost town.
I've been to the Pinball Hall of Fame for my special education program's summer camp. 'Twas as dope as it's retro rad!
It's very unique to see that someone likes Sanrio as much as I do. Badtz-Maru is pretty much my spirit animal
thanks for this! my husband and I will be moving to the Las Vegas area in the next 3 years or so, its nice to see a video thats just not based around a buffette, lol
Tail end of the video 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That pinball museum looks like a lot of fun. Thanks for posting 💯
Perfect!! This is exactly what I needed this fine saturday morning!!! You made my day good sir :)
As a Las Vegas resident I’m really excited to see what you cover on this channel. I feel like this city has so much to offer and I sincerely hope you got to see stuff outside of The Strip.
I love this! It makes me feel as though I’ve gone on a vacation even though I can’t go anywhere like this! (Even without what’s going on) ❤️
The mall food courts without the mall is such a brilliant concept!!!!👌🏽

Thumbs up for Pinball Hall of Fame! Love that place
Yay! I liked the container ship mall video, so I'm sure I'll like seeing what other sights you took a peek at... #AudienceEngagement ... mm Del Taco
That yellow wall to the left of sbarro used to be a wendy's, i used to eat lunch there every day for a couple of years
I really appreciate videos like these because I feel like I'm out and about, even though I'm just staying home!
Thanks for the upload. I get to visit these places through your videos.
Ok, first of all, I didn't know what a Nickelodeon machine was. And second, that Nickelodeon machine is awesome.
I've been to the pinball hall of fame when it wasn't near the strip. There's a lot more games there now tgen when i went
Love watching you videos, this was a great one. If you dont already, you should think about a podcast, you have an easy to listen to voice.
I definitely love the fountain cam! 😁👍
AH! Iron man and the Grinch! Best crossover yet!
That food court is absolutely brilliant oh my God
Love that food court. I also loved the Star Trek machine as a teen. We didn't have a sit down o0ne though. "Welcome aboard Captain"
Thank you for sharing these fascinating experiences.
I always pass by there when I'm in town but now I will have to actually go inside. Thanks for the footage
Great video. Thanks for continuing to bring us videos with everything going on in the world, its refreshing.
Did you do a video on the Toy Shack?
The good old days...when we can go out...
The water feature was awesome! I'm still laughing over Big Juicy Melons!! So funny :)
I loved this video, so calming :) but I could suggest including Celsius as well for international viewers like me xD
Great video, thank you for this. Your vids are always so relaxing, and these help a lot, especially now. Hope you and your family are safe and healthy. (Also I love Batzu-Maru, he’s so adorable!).

A mall food court that - gasp! - has FOOD! Glory be!
Those Hello Kitty pastries are so instagramable.

Yup, I've eaten at most of those food courts. Love the Fulton Street food court at Harrah's. Fresh macaroons and tiramisu chocolate cups.
Love your vids! Keep it up!
I’ve been to that Del Taco!! One very very intoxicated late night. Strip sure doesn’t look like this now. Stay safe
Nice adaptation to the current crisis. We all have to get by one way or another.
lol i seen the grinch standing there dressed as santa and lost it
Crazy watching this channel now. It's how we used to live 😨
If you are ever in Albuquerque, NM look up Hinkle Family Fun Center, Nickel Arcade. They have lots of old games.

>Hello Kitty Cafe in Las Vegas
I've officially seen everything now. 🤣 I couldn't go to that pinball place, I'd never leave.
I remember seeing a Hello Kitty Cafe Truck when I visited Washington D.C. a few summers ago. It was set up in Crystal City by the mall there. Later on in the year, the same truck came to Pittsburgh where I live and was set up by the Ross Park Mall. It was actually really cool. The food was good but a bit expensive.

My wife and I went to LV for Christmas one year it was so depressing. It was cold and windy we will never go back in the winter.
I'm Lady Gaga's biggest fan, hence the name! (Her name is Stefani Germanotta, SG) So awesome to see this! Thanks!

Amazing video, thank you! ♥️
Dang was hoping to see Narc in those old video games, that machine took so much of my money 💴😂
The pinball museum was probably my favorite place in Vegas
Thanks for the distraction. It’s definitely needed.
The food court was there on my 1st trip in 2006. I stayed at the Tropicana because it was cheap to stay and had $5 blackjack.
I ate at that Del Taco back in 2004. Looked the exact same then. But I went that at night so that Neon really popped.
Pinball hall of Fame...I could spend days in there
Ranch 99s near me are normal sized supermarkets, but yea thats a pretty standard design for an asian food market, plenty of easy take out food during this thing.
...that royalty free music is all like "swivel here"
Thanks for posting, Ill have to get down to the Park Theatre mall area
Sure you've played the Williams and Gottlieb collections for the Pinball Hall of Fame video games. See lots of gems of Las Vegas from your videos.
Is this food court still running? I’ve been to Vegas probably 10 times but never went up there lol
that was a crazy mall wall
What if some you recorded was with some else in Vegas?
BTW the 80s and 90s era decor brings back memories of malls gone by.
You should check out the Pinball Hall Of fame. I have been going for 8 years and its very old school and dark.
Played that same Star Trek game at a big arcade on vacation in New Hampshire
There's something kinda similar in the Minneapolis Skyway. The Skyway connects a bunch of buildings in the downtown Minneapolis area.
- I have the same tastes like you, very weird feeling. Happy i found your channel.
Were the Vegas card snappers still around ?
Check out the frys in Vegas too.
Call me crazy, but I kinda like this concept of food courts without malls! :)
10:36 random F bomb, pretty funny
The Pinball Hall of Fame reminds me of Musée Mécanique in San Francisco. Ever been?
That's not the only food court like that on the Vegas Strip
The Neon lights remind me of the old malls from the ‘80s
Do you know how Fry's Electronics is doing in LV? Is it like the rest of Fry's from around the country?
The Fry's in Fremont, California is pretty dead.
11:00 My favorite vector-graphics game was Omega Race!
14:33 wow it's pretty rare to see those kinds of tvs these days
I would love to check out that Lady Gaga museum!
DEAR GOD!! I've been looking for a working Sega Star Trek Console Game since I played one in the early 1980's...............!!!!! Scotty, beam me to Las Vegas!!
Thanks for the video.

Del Taco, Del Taco, Del Taco!
Awesome side of Vegas I've never seen. Never got why these places would be blasting pop tunes over loudspeakers.
I love you Dan Bell!
Comes in handy to have footage laying around?

Wasn't this the GameWorks at some point, or perhaps Planet Hollywood?

I was more an arcade fan than a pinball one but either way you'll definitely find something to kill time in an afternoon there. a must-visit if this pandemic ever ends!
you'd love funspot in laconia, nh - largest vintage arcade in the world
Galloping ghost in brookfield, IL outside chicago is also fantastic. Think they had almost 300 classic arcade games last time I was there. $20, play all day
It was soooo cold in December lol
I went down today but I must have been too early. Place was deserted.
I hope businesses will survive this lockdown.
I actually think the dying mall near me does not nor ever had a subway in it
GET TO DEL TACO, THEY GOT FRE FRE FREE SHA VACA DO!
Thanks Brotha!
#StaySafe #StayHome
Next time you're in Vegas, go check out Omega Mart
I've eaten there many times 👍👋
