I mean...they try to open at the mall a bit south of here, but they always close within a month it seems (There are still just a few arcade machines along an indentation in the wall; HARDLY can be considered a real arcade).

Here in town, there are a few arcade machines scattered around (2 in Als; a local eatery FOR SURE), but that's it. Even downstate in Portland Maine, Dream Machine closed at the mall down there (the space it occupied is now "The Ginger Pad"; an asian bistro, and an empty area that is used as a seasonal halloween store. I don't know of any arcades that still exist in Maine...Which is pretty sad.

They were a part of my childhood too, and it's sad to see them dying...do any of you still have 'em around where you live?
