- Starcade Arcade. Here is a walkthrough of Starcade Arcade in St. Paul Minnesota. Nick the GM takes us on a tour of the current lineup at Starcade. This is a great arcade to roll up to and play tons of classic games. Starcade Arcade is owned by Paul, Bryan, and a third investor and I think they did a great job selecting, maintaining, and rotating their games. This is a must-visit if you are in Minnesota.
If you want to hear more about Starcade Arcade I interviewed Paul and Bryan in episodes 140, 66, and 32 of In The Scene. Starcade Arcade has been around for a few years and has been doing awesome stuff, go check them out.

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.
Back when Starcade moved from Rosedale to Keg n Case, I was a bit worried about potentially having less space there. But I was pleasantly surprised the first time I saw the new location. And then I found the second floor. Great place!
I loved the Roseville location. The new location is better, in my opinion, because of the multiple spaces. The lower level, the pinball space, the upstairs, and then the candy island. It's a great layout and grouping of games.
Damn! Bemidji resident here, I think I have reason to come down there now sometime!
Glad to hear, the games are always changing, you don't know what could get added. I heard of some crazy ones they were considering bringing in. You will have a good time, and it's one price all you can play.
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.
That place looks amazing.. Need something like that where I live.
Where do you live? There might be a good arcade near you.
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.
Love this came up as a suggestion cuzs would have never known. So many games I was in heaven looking at all of them drooling too😊
@dmartin842 I'm glad the video found you. It's a great collection. The crazy thing is that it's just a small portion of what they have.
Love the back of his shirt.
Love the Overload profile picture.
@@IndieArcadeWave u have good taste :)
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.
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.
YES! Someone told me last year that you had a Ninja Baseball Batman!
@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.
Added to my road trip list of stops. Very awesome setup and looking forward to hours of fun here. All that is missing is a jukebox filled with 80's and 90's music.
Yeah, a jukebox would be cool. I like arcades that don't have music, and you are just surrounded by the sounds of the games.
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.
That is the first time I've ever seen a Warlords cab, great game.
It's not an original, Bryan does own one, but it's not in the arcade. This is a licensed remake by their company and our partners on Food Fight Frenzy, Retro Arcade Remakes. The 4-player Warlords is super fun!
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!
omg this is so good seeing Starcade again !!!
Did you go to the old location?
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.
wow, Starcade has an awesome selection of games!
They do have a great selection of games. Just imagine what the owners have in their home arcades.
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.
Very impressive. It must have been so much work acquiring all those cabs and getting them to suck great operational shape.
@aiw437591 it's a labor of love. The owners have been collecting and restoring for decades.
Holy this is a big arcade!
Yeah, it's one of the biggest in the state for classic arcade games. It's my favorite.
This place is perfect. really impressed with selection
I agree, an excellent selection of rare and common classics. It is one of the best arcades I've ever been to. I'm so glad it's under a 30-minute drive.
Wizard! I just watched it on LD! So many Cyber Leads! Can't wait to visit!
You'll love it!
that rhythm game section is looking decent
I agree, pretty solid options. That Mai Mai game is really fun.
Great pinball selection. Funny to see my two all-time favorites next to each other: Attack From Mars and Twilight Zone. This video kind of breezed over the shmups in the japanese cabinet section. Was wondering if they had any Cave shmups.
Great pins. You're right, we didn't spend much time looking at the candy cabinets. All of the candy cabinets have multiple games on them. I know they have a larger focus on fighting games then shmups.
Daioujou white label
Yeah I’m almost positive I saw Dodonpachi logo on one of the screens but couldn’t make out much more than that
Super fun to meet you my friend!
Awesome Arcade! Sadly in Arizona otherwise would totally want to help you out as I own many Rare Games. :(
Great to meet you too Nick!
You have a bunch of great arcades in Arizona. What is your home arcade? Electric Bat?
@@IndieArcadeWave The ones I did enjoy back in the day was Golf N Stuff - still around here in Tucson. But my current favorite one is the TILT Arcade in the Arizona Mill's Mall in Phoenix with the Rainforest Cafe. Love anything with Animatronics or is trying to do something new. Most the Arcades in Phoenix have been disappointing me.
I haven't been impressed with most TILTs I encounter. Maybe I'm just finding really small ones in Minnesota, but they all have 3 claw games, 2 more prize games, 2 drivers, and a big environmental cabinet. I'm sure they make good money, but it's not what I'm into.
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.
I came back to watch the end for the pins, Haunted House and Kiss. I really liss those two. The others I love were not there Space Invaders and Capt Fantastic. Great video.
Bad Penny had a few pins at a convention as you saw with the gaps in the video. A few of my favorites were missing too.
I got the 78 Kiss man. It lives at my house.
@@JeffTullock-yx1hd I'm so jealous, one of the best from that era.
now this is Americana , ty for the upload, keep it going !!!
Will do! Thanks for checking out the video, we appreciate it.
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 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.
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.
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.
Pirhanna, and the first game you see.
Right, where else do you see those.
Home consoles the total to 1 to 1 ratio over 10,000 games in 10,000 custom cabinets for you can only play them and charge free play price fee
Shout out to Bad Penny and Starcade!
@@GameOfDepth both great business with great people behind them. Awesome arcade games and excellent pins.
I gotta gota Minnesota
Yeah, while you're in the area I'd check out Can Can Wonderland, and Litt Pinball.
@5:26 Is that an OEM Ninja Baseball Bat Man cab?
Yes, it is. Pretty cool, right?!
Dang! I need to set up a shuttle from Duluth to check this place out. Are they licensed for alcohol?
They are working on beer right now. There was a brewery in the building in the past that had the license for the whole building, so they couldn't get one. The brewery is no longer there, so they are going through the process right now.
Nick is the best
@@KING_KONK Nick is an awesome guy! Super friendly and knowledgeable. He fits in great at Starcade!
G N G is a great game indeed.
A super hard, great game!
Design these cabinets for arcade home consoles and golden era arcades late 70s through 1999
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.
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.
I want to out of the best nes games in caninets like 400 and 400 tvs and cabinets for home consoles like arcade
Got question on concept of home consoles in cabinets nintendo xbox
I'm not exactly sure what you are asking but I know that there are tons of mame/raspberry pi cabinets that are running console games with joysticks and buttons. I know of a few that have thousands of games on them playable through emulators. Is that kind of what you're looking for?
wait all of keg and case is this arcade?
Pretty much, the little pizza place in there is owned by the same people. It's their party room/console bar.
Movie is the Wizard it was okay but never really owned it and probably only seen it 2 times. Didn't really like the story or care for it over time.
I don't think I've seen it. I'll have to check it out and decide for myself.
You had to be a kid at that time when The Wizard came out because it was the debut/reveal of Super Mario Bros. 3 in the United States. That's where kids like myself at the time first saw SMB3.
Great way to show off a new game.
Any king of fighters game?
Oh yeah, they have a few on the multicabs, I can't remember which ones, but I'm sure they had 3 or more .
Playstation and sega 1 to 1 ratio caninets with console game arcade joysticks home consoles
200 games, that's cute...Galloping Ghost arcade in Chicago has 996 lol.
I know I was just there and filmed a full walkthrough. This is also a large arcade. Just not the largest.
How is it that everything is "rare" in retro channels. It's way to overvalue things.
@soteful9949 Not everything is rare. We pointed out 10 or so games that are rare. Some more than others. That Blaster is something like 1 of 20 known to still be working.
I know what you mean when people say it's rare as click bait. A lot of them are rare. If there are only 100 in existence, I'd say that's really rare.
I miss CHILLER and CROSSBOW. Good luck finding either of those.
@slayskool1964 One of the owners has a chiller in his personal collection. Last time I saw his home arcade, he had that and a Cheyenne. I think I saw a Crossbow at Galloping Ghosts but I could be mistaken. He had so many games.
@@IndieArcadeWave He might have one of the last few surviving cabinets. I haven't seen one for 30 years.
@@slayskool1964 he has a pretty crazy collection.
LOL. I was looking for classic Street Fighter games and I see Marvel VS Capom 2, X-Men VS Street Fighter, Killer Instinct 2, Street Fighter III 3rd Strike, and etc. I didn't see Marvel VS Street Fighter nor SF III New Generation though. I saw the classic Street Fighter game, but it seems to be just SSFII, and not SSFII Turbo. I could be wrong, but I've never seen Fei Long's original costume in SSFII Turbo unless it's exclusively just for the arcade version.
Other games I didn't see were Time Crisis 2, 3, 4, and 5. I saw some airplane games, but I didn't see the Raiden Project series. These are must haves in an arcade store including Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles. That's a good start, though.
They have a lot of those games in their collection, there is only so much space on the floor. I can't say for sure that they have all of the SF games you're looking for, I know that there are a bunch of games on each candy cab/big blue.
The games change constantly. They cycle games out when something goes down or when they feel like moving a game from their personal collection to the arcade. Any of those games could have been added since filming, you never know.
Thanks for checking out the video.
beer so not safe3 for kids sad
@charlesshook5834 No beer right now. It'll still be all ages. The issue is when you have hard liquor that people get sloppy.
NICE $MONEY$ WA$H
They owners don't need to wash money. They need their collection to be played. They are making money here rather than paying to store hundreds of games.
