This channel is growing because of the love the business owners have put into building a legit gamer experience at the game store and bar, but also because Sam is the perfect spokesperson. Her look, appeal, voice, and persona are very infectious
@@vectoralphaAI and worth every penny! 🤑 haha such a buzz kill 😂. come tf on... I’d love to have a retro arcade in my area. Every town should have one 👾🕹️😊 (thanks for doing the math anyhow lol)
Oh man Gauntlet Legends. Being 6 or 7 whenever I first saw that and being able to save your characters while also being 4 player was love at first sight!
Thank you, Sam for keeping the retro arcade gaming scene alive. Looks like an amazing arcade. Better than any modern arcade that are just ticket game gambling halls for kids.
What a beautiful arcade!! It makes me so happy to see that places like these are providing communities with some of the best games, both old and new, for everyone to experience for the first time or 1000th time! Not just that, but also crazy affordable! $10 for all day access to all of the games shown today is an insane value. The last time I saw a $10 all day play was back in the early 2000's. I'd love to check this place out one day :)
Yo, this is very rad ^^ Terminator 2 would be the favourite pick. For me it's the most nostalgic arcade game of all those. Fiancées fam is over there in y'alls area so we travel there often, so pretty glad I found out about this place and the game shop ^^
I like that they don’t just have random vintage machines in there that they were able to get their hands on. These are legit fun, co-op friendly games.
I agree! I like that they have some all-time arcade classics mixed in with different experiences like rhythm games and consoles. That place looks awesome!
@@travisnorman Yep. Would’ve been easier and probably a lot cheaper to just stock the building with vintage machines with name recognition, but you can tell they put a lot of thought into the entire vibe of the space.
I'd be there all the time if i lived there. Last time i went to the arcades was in 1998. Where i live they disappeared entirely once internet cafes became a thing
I had such a great time with Brandon, and John Riggs hanging out at the VIP party last RRW. Great space and awesome employees too! Appreciate you all :)
Wow that place looks like a ton of fun. Way better and more nostalgic than a dave and busters. I would go and support this place in a heartbeat. Some other of my favorites i didn't see here are SF 2, Mk 2, mk3 ultimate, Contra or Super C, super punch out, WWF WrestleMania, 1943, after burner, space harrier, TMNT arcade game, operation wolf, double dragon and DD 2 the revenge, golden axe, dragons lair, space ace, galaga, star wars to name a few. But you guys got more than enough there for a damn good night. Awesome concept and business model. Wish you much success 🙏👍
Wow this is a rad bar for sure! Love all the arcades and pinball machines! I was looking for Killer Instinct that was my favorite arcade growing up. I also love the mural on the walls that what makes the place pop!
That place looks so awesome. Dating myself, but I grew up in the 80's, when arcade's were the 'thing'(I was obsessed with Punch-Out and wasted so much of my mom's money playing that). Sad that they are gone now, except for the select few places around like you have here, which let's folks like myself relive the AWESOME times we used to have back in the day, and introduce the younger generations of how awesome these places are. Wish I lived closer, but next time I take a trip down to your way, I'm gonna make it a point to drop by. Thank you for keeping places like this alive for all to enjoy!
I had never heard of a place like this until last week when I went to the same thing in London, Ontario. Having a flat fee for all you can play and beer? Brilliant. Best idea ever. Probably.
Great job, fantastic place. You're just on the wrong coast 😊 Love the reluctant nod to the greatness that is the Wii! One console set up with two-player House of the Dead and there would be people on it all day long!
Wow this looks like a blast. You really know how to setup a good shop! From the retro game store to this bar, i'm very impressed. If only y'all opened up in California..
wish i had a place like this nearby. &, i would gladly pay double that entry fee; as others have stated, $10 is quite the deal. Very cool, & all the best to you guys!
Die Hard arcade is so memorable for some reason. I played it once as a kid and never forgot it. Also really like the wide selection of fighting games, that's pretty cool.
You guys did a great job with thos place. The set-up and atmosphere looks great, the price is affordable, and you have some great games. We have an arcade/bar in Sacramento, CA, but I love everything about this arcade. I've only been to my local one (Coin Op) once so they may have some different games now.
i would love to come visit you guys and hang out. the place looks great and lots of work has been put in. im in seattle and we have a few spots like this. MUST SUPPORT AND RESPECT, great environment that should not go away.
I lived in Fort Walton Beach with my girlfriend for a year in 2021, I loved hanging out there on Killer Queen night! My only question is, WHERE IS THE GUNSLINGER GAME THAT WAS IN THE FRONT??? That was legitimately my favorite arcade game I have ever played and my girlfriend and I still talk about how much we want to go back to visit and play again! I hope it is alive and well somewhere, I miss it so much. Either way, it's so cool that you all popped up in my recommended, the bar and the game shop are such gems in the panhandle. Keep it up guys!
Very fun looking Arcade! I would definitely visit, but I'm a little far away. Good luck with your endeavors. Really like the feel of the place (and your art is insane!). Never heard of "Cheesus" but sounds good too.
Ahhhh damn, wish I knew you guys were there back a few years ago on my last visit to Destin... Next time I'm in Destin, I'mma gonna hit up the Rad Bar for sure! 😎👍
Im from London but I went to Austin for my honeymoon and I reckon we spent like half the days we were there in Pinballz haha. Awesome place, there just isnt the space in London for anything on that scale

Thank you soooo much!❤️
Shes cute.
simp much? jk, i'm in love....with the arcade. Maybe one day I can visit when i'm in Florida.
maybe for you. not feeling it here. but hey. simping is bad.
Yeah right lol
$10 all you can play is such an amazing deal!
I would assume that that is somewhat subsidized by the alcohol, but still, that is a really good deal.
Yeah, bc a beer is $10....lol
yeah, let the kids play!
@@SmallSpoonBrigadeno, subsidized by the youtube channel. The overhead to run that place is far more than they get in net sales.
Growing up with arcades, I've never been to one this well set up! The locals there are super lucky to have you guys!
So this is what Aubrey Plaza has been doing lately
I would be in there every day if I lived nearby.. what great selection of arcades and a bar to!! 😍
That would be $3,650 a year.

Oh man Gauntlet Legends. Being 6 or 7 whenever I first saw that and being able to save your characters while also being 4 player was love at first sight!
Best arcade game ever!!! Sunset riders is a close 2nd.
Thank you, Sam for keeping the retro arcade gaming scene alive. Looks like an amazing arcade. Better than any modern arcade that are just ticket game gambling halls for kids.
All those nice Pinballs are worth the cheap $10 price. Best of luck to your amazing business.

Love your BarCade! It’s one of the greatest hidden gems in Fortwalton Beach!
Fantastic "BarCade". Nostalgia and quality united at the same place at the same time. Greetings from Brazil.
Yo, this is very rad ^^ Terminator 2 would be the favourite pick. For me it's the most nostalgic arcade game of all those. Fiancées fam is over there in y'alls area so we travel there often, so pretty glad I found out about this place and the game shop ^^
The arcade looks amazing, i'm loving the 2 Neo Geo cabinets and SF Third Strike. The bar setup and beer selection looks awesome
Great Arcade, Setup, Wall Artwork, Price and Blue Hair! P. S. Dragon's Lair would be a great addition! 🐲
This might be the best barcade I’ve ever seen! Best cabinets!

You guys and girls give me hope, your places rock
Your outfit is perfection! And no other shoe could go with it better than checkered Vans! Manic Pixie Dream Girls, eat your hearts out! 🎉
You are awesome. Your bar is awesome. I wish I could give your business my money.
That's looks Awesome, Best Retro Arcade games, AWESOME SAUCE!!! Thanks for the tour.😊😊😊😊😊
That glass mural reminded me of the arcade styles in GTA, great looking arcade and what a deal, hope your business grow further
Awesome Spot! I might be a little biased but that 4 Play is ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥😁
It’s definitely rad!
I'd be there all the time if i lived there. Last time i went to the arcades was in 1998. Where i live they disappeared entirely once internet cafes became a thing
gd those are some of the cleanest cabs i've ever seen, nice vid 👍🏽👍🏽
What an incredible selection of games!!! Rastan and Two crude dudes would fit perfectly amoungst them.
Best of luck with the business
I had such a great time with Brandon, and John Riggs hanging out at the VIP party last RRW. Great space and awesome employees too! Appreciate you all :)
Thanks man!

We actually have some of those games in our warehouse!
THIS is a true love of the medium. Absolutely amazing place!

Awesome place, wish it was closer to me.... Great selection of games!
Awesome! Love the mood/vibe in there
So glad I found this channel!! So Rad! If I ever go to Florida, I'm stopping into the barcade for sure!!!
She doesn't need my validation but I love the person doing the intros. Such a great positive and encouraging energy. (Not an American here)
Seeing Gauntlet brought back halcyon memories from childhood!
Awesome arcade. Great selection of games and beer. Plus the interior design is great. 10 bucks and play as much as you want is fantastic 😊
I have added this location to the Aurcade database. Thank you so much for the walkthrough.
Hell yeah dual linked ID3! I still have my racer cards from back in the day, even have the racer aura on one! Great collection you have!
Damn, this barcade looks awesome! I wanna visit one day. 😍
Maybe you can make it to my convention one year, it’s called Really Rad Weekend!
@@RadJunkI’d love to. Maybe next year? 🤔
Great tour, took me back to 1983 going down to the local arcade
Beautiful Place. I will check this out if I'm ever in Florida.

Thanks for the kind words! Stay rad!
Always a good time at Rad Bar and Rad Junk, coming into town later this week.
I had never heard of a place like this until last week when I went to the same thing in London, Ontario. Having a flat fee for all you can play and beer? Brilliant. Best idea ever. Probably.
QUARTET IS MY JAM!!! Especially playing with 4 players! I’m definitely going to have to stop by! 😊
Finally, a good arcade video with actual video games. I've seen other vlogs showing only Ticket games.
Checked out the bar and store when I was visiting from Atlanta and loved them both. Hoping to come back soon again!
Heck yea!!! Now you need to come down for Really Rad Weekend. 😬
That's a sweet DK mural--sets the tone right at the start!
The paintings are excellent. Good business idea with the beer and games complimenting each other
Great job, fantastic place. You're just on the wrong coast 😊 Love the reluctant nod to the greatness that is the Wii! One console set up with two-player House of the Dead and there would be people on it all day long!

Looks awesome and the beer selection looks amazing
I most definitely have to go visit this place one day, if my work schedule allows it.
The arcade looks fantastic ‼️ it's a couple of games in there and I haven't played before, I would love to spend the whole day playing everything
wish i had a place like this nearby. &, i would gladly pay double that entry fee; as others have stated, $10 is quite the deal. Very cool, & all the best to you guys!
What an amazing place. Such a deal too, only $10. I wish we had a place like this here in the UK.
Die Hard arcade is so memorable for some reason. I played it once as a kid and never forgot it. Also really like the wide selection of fighting games, that's pretty cool.
“Street Fighter. 3rd Strike. Best one.”
Subscribed! Not even joking. Glad you and Joe managed to hold on, this is awesome
Thank you!
Looks like a really rad place! Nice work guys
Sick, beer and retro games sounds like heaven 😀
The best comparison to Sound Voltex would actually be DJ Hero because the two knobs are similar to the turntable if I'm not mistaken.
That’s a great comparison!

So many memories from my days in arcades...
I wish I lived closer this place is awesome ❤
Man, your shop is so damn cool.
Totally awesome! 😎
This is awesome! I want to visit this on vacation soon 💛
oh no. "We opened in dec 2019" and I knew what was coming.. Glad you made it!
Camera man doesnt really want to look at everything she points at. Great tour, though. I really enjoy arcade bars
Yeah definitely a bit rough on the camera work but still an awesome tour nonetheless, looks like a great place to have some fun!
First time shooting with the new gimbal and the face tracking was fighting me the whole time!
Sorry about that, next time will be better!
i would love to come visit you guys and hang out. the place looks great and lots of work has been put in. im in seattle and we have a few spots like this. MUST SUPPORT AND RESPECT, great environment that should not go away.
Holy smokes that place is awesome!

that joint looks like heaven...
Threw down on some gauntlet last time we were in there with my daughter. We have so much fun every time we go. Can't wait to see yall again soon!
❤️
Where is that arcade bar located I can’t find any info on the location or maybe I missed it somewhere in the RUclips post
@andrewramirez5417 fort walton beach florida
Ahhhh damn, wish I knew you guys were there back a few years ago on my last visit to Destin... Next time I'm in Destin, I'mma gonna hit up the Rad Bar for sure! 😎👍
That’s a great idea, this place is amazing.
Holy shit what an awesome arcade. 😮
our arcade place is called Pinballz in Austin, Texas. visiting these places always bring back happy childhood memories.
Pinballz was so nice they had to make it twice 😂
Im from London but I went to Austin for my honeymoon and I reckon we spent like half the days we were there in Pinballz haha. Awesome place, there just isnt the space in London for anything on that scale
@@draculaman Pinballz forsure is a cool place! Glad you enjoyed it!
Ninja Gaiden and POW were some of my favorites growing up in the 80's
Black Tiger!!! Best 1.99 I ever spent on switch. Best arcade game imo. And Addams Family Pinball. The Mamuska!!! Great video!
This place looks amazing!!!
🎮😯
That place looks awesome!!
Whaaaat!! Soooo awesome!!!!!!!
Very nice, it's a good selection of games.
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 was my jam as a teenager. Awesome place!
The Rad Bar looks very RAD. Also T2 Arcade game 😍😍😍 childhood classic
really cool set up. Nice work.
Good to know Matt on Wii Sports reign of terror is still alive and thriving
That looks amazing! 👏
So. Damn. Cool.
If I am ever in Florida, within like 150 miles, i would for sure come and spend all night.
Best bar in Florida! Also, what a lovely wig!
Sweet bar, will have to check it out if I ever make it that way.
My favorite place in the world!!!
This place looks amazing.
This is actually crazy and for 10 bucks? I wish we had something similiar here
My favorite arcade game is Daytona USA. We had one in our local video library in the 90's!
Wow, what a cool place to hang out 😎👍
That is so Dope 👏 awesome!
