I can only imagine how many hundreds of thousands of dollars it takes to run places like this not including maintenance on everything ........a lot of work and tons of money goes into places like this
I was a manager right under the owner of an arcade for four years, it’s ridiculous how much money goes into arcades. Not to mention doing all the work and repairs yourself to save money. Hours of manuals that didn’t make much sense lol kids destroy everything.
I have some gumball/candy machines right now. Going to try to make enough money with them to buy some snack/drink machines then maybe some claw machines and ultimately would love to make enough to start my own arcade in my hometown or nearby. We don’t have one and it sucks
Yeah, especially if you have alot of rowdy kids coming in and destroying your stuff. That's why you always have to watch and make sure people are playing correctly.
Loved the behind the scenes, up close and person with all the going on’s. It neat to see how each game can be tweaked and also check out new up and coming games and game spots.
You are a very good helper for sure helping someone fixing and testing them to make sure they are working and if they have anything wrong with it or anything.
Love when you do these more behind the scenes types videos Matt! This arcade is going to be amazing! I love when arcades do LEGO as prizes, those are the best to redeem for imo :3
Hey Matt when it comes to changing the pulse count on the readers I highly recommended adjusting the coin setting in the pong game settings from 4 credits down to 1 just because over time that game will need to have a new swiper/tapper put on it before any of the others because it will no longer be able to send that coin pulse signal because every time someone plays instead of it sending one pulse it’s sending four
thats exactly what needs to be done.. its like the coin channel has been by default on quarters.. u might get away just by using the Dollar coin channel.. if that is available.. if this game only have 1 channel to choice from.. then yes change the Coin to Credit back to 1 indeed, i know what i talk about as i am a Arcade Technician over here in the Netherlands.. for a big FEC arcade Chain.
That's an interesting problem with the solenoids at the end. You figure they'd give a little more time for the first ball to get out of the way before firing the second one. That was a neat inside look! Top floor is looking great.
Matt wanna say you are the best after spending all of quarantine watching your videos I was able to go to the new Dave and busters in my area and rack up over 10000 tickets off 50 on a half day power roller since I've gotten to the point where I can hit the jackpot about %75 of the time
One of my friends when he was a little kid. Got the Grand jackpot on that mountain ball game. And it was at a mini golf course. But it didn't work anymore so it didn't vend anything out. But it still took quarters and stuff but they didn't even put a sign on it. So you got to the Grand jackpot without getting a prize.
27:00 I don't remember if I mentioned this in one of my previous random arcade fact, but Gravity Hills actually has different difficulty hills that you can exchange for more of a challenge. But as far as I know, I have never seen a medium or hard hill. (That hill you played / the basic one I seen everywhere is the easiest hill). Pictures are seen on the website that sells parts
I mastered gravity hill. Drained all the big prizes out of the arcade at the local mall one summer. Favorite arcade game off all time. Sadly that mall arcade is gone. If it wasn’t so expense I would own one in my home. It’s a faster flicking motion to make it past the small prize hole. You’ll definitely get it down and start winning large every time
Amazing memories my friend !! Sound was so annoying, however we always loved it. Hahaha Retro always in our memories, I have opened a session for retro on my channel. They must never be forgotten and left behind. Keep them alive and thanks for sharing these precious arcade games. Eyes peeled for your next post
May I add a recommendation? If there are plans for lighting for the upstairs arcade, might I recommend these rainbow mini light bulbs that we got at the arcade I work at. Ill edit in the item number when I get off break, but they look amazing in the old game room they have.
Matt, you can definitely make a living out of this. There's arcades opening up all the time I bet you arcade owners would pay good money to have a professional come in before grand opening and Make sure everything's working from a customer aspect ...
@@arcade_matt I think your awesome I have been a fan for a while your honestly my favorite RUclipsr .. I have a question. If an arcade is going to be upstairs, doesn't that lose business for your claw machine and stacker downstairs ? Or do you plan on like relocating in the future? Or It might not affect it at all
@@zcr4tim I guess I need to word it better. I just meant if it's going to affect business or if he's ever planning on relocating I would think that would either bring more people to play it or bring more people upstairs
You should do a video of you doing a virtual tournament You are so cool and so lucky you to can get those scored those tickets and behind the scenes like that ❤️ it keeps them coming don't stop the videos
22:30 yeah, ask what the issue is with that gun, because we have the same problem with our Space Invaders Frenzy gun. If those games are new than it's just a calibration issue likely, but if not, reply how they eventually fixed it and what part was replaced
Congratulations on making your first "Small Prize". If you owned a Gravity Hill game, you could keep putting it on a higher part to practice the top section.
The pegs above the M, B and S are set slightly lower in relation to the other pegs. That's why it's so much more like to turn away from the slots. Surprised I never noticed that before. This was pretty cool.
We just wish the company would allow the same player to swipe in again if tickets are being counted - currently they said it's not possible which is a bummer.
@@arcade_matt oh I know what you mean. Some arcades I have been to have a snail speed card reader that seems to take forever to count all your tickets. I prefer to it being going all onto the card rather then paper tickets beacuse when you get a arcade with paper ticket have to many and you put them in the ticket counter machine and they go in there really fast. Sometimes they will get into a crumpled up mess and rip and tear.
Some arcade video games can run with Windows, Linux or Raspberry Pi. I want to try to install one of the games on my laptop but I need TeknoParrot or JConfig. It's hard because if you don't have those, the games don't run normally. That's what I've been watching recently. Either way, I like your arcade videos. They are very entertaining and it makes me learn how to play the games whenever I go to another country.
I worked at a hotel arcade for a few years and when we didn't have guests I could play games while on the clock and I cleaned out the grand prizes from Gravity Hill every week. They ended up swapping it out with Whistle Stop and cranking the difficulty up so no one could win.
years ago I played gravity hill frequently as I had one at my job at shoprite. I was a cart attendant and at times after work I played the game. It offered some nice piiczes. I played that game the most when the teen titan plushes were put in. When that happened, I murdered that game....Iwon the big prize back to back sometimes 3 in a row. Hell even some of my associates asked me to play and win for them some plushes. the guy that owned it hated me playing the game I won the game so much. I can't believe I murdered a game that you arcade mat have not mastered.....Well you will get there...I am no professional arcade gamer, but that was my game and won far too much and I miss those times.
The tilt is the foul line at the front that you're not to cross (roughly the crease of the plexi covering the belt), it's saying you reached into the machine past the line
29:39 even though beer pong toss is really good arcade game even a really good idea. It has been used from beytek multiple times and now it was probably released by a different company, it’s still a pretty good arcade game and no matter what generation of this is although I don’t do drugs, so this game might not be for me
Love the behind-the-scenes vids because goobers like me, love to see the insides of games, how the work, ect. Even when they open up vending machines to fill, clean, or service them, I'm always checking to see whats inside
we have an issue with the big bean toss game, where those bags doesnt Slide back towards the blue track below.. ive used all kinds of cleaning sprays.. and the bags also tends to stick under those 3 holes, its annoying
He already got a bunch more games - will have an update in the future!!

That’s a freaking cool arcade. Your behind the scene videos are amazeballs as well!

That was a great video. I didn’t even realize a half hour went by. The mark of an interesting video. I wanted more. This is a great channel.
That's an interesting problem with the solenoids at the end. You figure they'd give a little more time for the first ball to get out of the way before firing the second one.
That was a neat inside look! Top floor is looking great.
Yea that's what I thought too but we got the kinks worked out I think.
Hey Matt have been watching your videos for years now and still love them. Keep up the good work.
Thanks!!
Really nice that you are helping him out testing his games and offering advice
Certainly amazing that you got to check out everything and point out any possible teething troubles.
Matt wanna say you are the best after spending all of quarantine watching your videos I was able to go to the new Dave and busters in my area and rack up over 10000 tickets off 50 on a half day power roller since I've gotten to the point where I can hit the jackpot about %75 of the time
sweet beans!!
Now I know what happens before arcades open for the day. Cool behind the scenes. Thanks Matt!
u bet!

aw lame :(
YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEOOOOOO!!!
I’ve been watching so much of your classic videos lately
That was an amazing video man, loved the behind the scenes!!!
Thanks!
Yes
Come to Rochester, NY we have lots of Arcades!! Come on Matt!!
I know!!!!
Cool video! I was expecting the power drop ball to be like a billiards ball. Pretty neat
That's so awesome that you got to test the games before the go cart place opened. And you had the master key to the games too.👍👍👍👍👍
Hi Matt. More behind the scene videos, please.
Glad you enjoyed! Got more planned!
Cool to see the progress, thnx for bringing us along

Plinko is my favorite game from The Price is Right! That looks so cool!
It's the best!

Thank you for showing arcades around the world Matt I like people who show tours on arcade
Thanks Matt! We love when you come down to 3RK👍🤙

So cool! I need to come out and check it out for sure!!
That's cool, I've never seen behind the scenes of getting an arcade ready.
It's pretty fun!
Loved this video! It was so interesting to see what goes on behind the scenes as well as watch some great plays!

This was really cool to see. Also as soon as I saw the beer pong game with the gimmicky ball dispenser, I knew it'd have something wrong with it.
Your amazing and I love the kart place video have a great day
Oh wow that looks fun and amazing for sure
May I add a recommendation? If there are plans for lighting for the upstairs arcade, might I recommend these rainbow mini light bulbs that we got at the arcade I work at. Ill edit in the item number when I get off break, but they look amazing in the old game room they have.
Ya. Play the plinking game you thought was the only one. It was at the Kalahari arcade and I got the jackpot on it.
That was cool to watch and learned alot from you. Thank you.
Wow Matt, that's cool. You're really trusted to be given that key. :) Fun!
Matt, you can definitely make a living out of this. There's arcades opening up all the time I bet you arcade owners would pay good money to have a professional come in before grand opening and Make sure everything's working from a customer aspect ...

Seeing the power roll ball being held was so cool! I love when I get to see the behind the scenes of the arcade.
I love behind the scenes stuff. This was a very cool video!
Maybe your best video! Amazing work Matt
22:30 yeah, ask what the issue is with that gun, because we have the same problem with our Space Invaders Frenzy gun. If those games are new than it's just a calibration issue likely, but if not, reply how they eventually fixed it and what part was replaced
Im an arcade technical manager and the Power Roll ball is definitely the coolest ball of them all
Yea it's mesmerizing!
Congratulations on making your first "Small Prize".
If you owned a Gravity Hill game, you could keep putting it on a higher part to practice the top section.
One of these days I'll get it lol
The pegs above the M, B and S are set slightly lower in relation to the other pegs. That's why it's so much more like to turn away from the slots. Surprised I never noticed that before. This was pretty cool.
ahhh nice catch!
Excellent video! This was so interesting to see the behind the scenes of an arcade & the games. Fun!💯💥
Love watching!
Thank you for the adventures. I would love to play Plinko arcade, have not seen yet. I like Willie Crash game. Be well
Great video Matt!
Great video Matt! Can you do more gravity hill videos?
That’s a amazing card scanners for the arcade games.
We just wish the company would allow the same player to swipe in again if tickets are being counted - currently they said it's not possible which is a bummer.
@@arcade_matt oh I know what you mean. Some arcades I have been to have a snail speed card reader that seems to take forever to count all your tickets.

I worked at a hotel arcade for a few years and when we didn't have guests I could play games while on the clock and I cleaned out the grand prizes from Gravity Hill every week. They ended up swapping it out with Whistle Stop and cranking the difficulty up so no one could win.
Love your videos so Much
Bro I love your videos keep up the good work
years ago I played gravity hill frequently as I had one at my job at shoprite. I was a cart attendant and at times after work I played the game. It offered some nice piiczes.

What's sleep when there is a new Matt 3756 video?
It’s so cool seeing the process of a place becoming an arcade
Awesome Video!!😎👍
Really love the behind the scenes! 👍
04:38 - Single parents like me...You're a parent? Ive never seen your kid!!! 🤣
Wow matt fire videos
I have very fond memories of playing Gravity Hill in the game room of an old restaurant from my youth. NEVER won at it
Love your videos
The tilt is the foul line at the front that you're not to cross (roughly the crease of the plexi covering the belt), it's saying you reached into the machine past the line
Matt is living the life 😅✌️
We're excited!
You were actually good at bean bag toss!! Haha. Great videos as usual.

This was where you filmed the video of them bringing all the games in and out of the box right? It looks really sick
Yea he's got many more games since, will have updates in the future!
Damnit!! Top 1000 at least! Working to be in the 1st hundred to watch! Great vid!
arcade matt what mic do you use cuz it sound so crisp and clear i have one where it is muffled and not very good. loving the videos i am a big fan
Love the behind-the-scenes vids because goobers like me, love to see the insides of games, how the work, ect. Even when they open up vending machines to fill, clean, or service them, I'm always checking to see whats inside
Wow, what you get to do seems like a dream job i'd love to have.!
This looks like it is going to be such a fun place
hey matt i love your vids keep it up
My 6 month old stops crying as soon as i put your videos on keep making videos great content 👍👍👍👍
You’re the one who got me into getting an arcade job
I really like the behind the scenes. I’ve been wondering though, with that being on a second floor, is there an elevator for accessibility issues?
Matt it is possible to get a card reader working with prize locker, you might need a relay for this card reader however
Tell him to get a DDR machine so we can see old-school matt do DDR videos again!
Like the arcade!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
That’s Lucky!
Jurassic Park most likely needs a new potentiometer. Happens from time to time on the Raw Thrills games.
Yea they replaced the gun and it's all good now.
Boy I wish it is near my house. I would be there everyday. It looks so much fun
He's gonna have some unique games!
loved the video
we have an issue with the big bean toss game, where those bags doesnt Slide back towards the blue track below.. ive used all kinds of cleaning sprays.. and the bags also tends to stick under those 3 holes, its annoying
Need to see a Gravity Hill full video with a grand prize win!
The cameras on the motorcycle game may still have the plastic film that needs to be peeled off the cameras
Seems like a chill place
