I consider myself a gamer and the Pinball Hall of Fall is mecca. This was one of our stops during my birthday trip to Vegas. We were only here for a few hours but I could have stayed here all night even forgoing the planned trip to a strip club. That's right I would have skipped boobies to game. I was amazed by the range of pinball games they offered here. According to their online game list, the earliest machines are from 1940's-1960's clear up until the late 2000's.I never had the chance to play the classic machines from my (grand) parent's era until coming here but I loved the ting-ting noise it made every time you hit the ball against the flippers. All of these machines are lovingly cared for by Tim Arnold and the Las Vegas Pinball Collectors Club. They use the funds gathered from the games to pay the bills while the rest is donated to the Salvation Army. What a group of classy people. I have no problem dropping money here than at a soulless casino.
If pinball isn't your thing don't be deterred. The PHoF also has classic arcade games like Ms.Pac Man, Tron, Paperboy to name a few, classic games of skill like your average claw machine or Novelty Merchantman crane (1938) and something I can only describe as a Howdy Doody dance off (you make a Howdy Doody marionette dance with keys while a tune is played). Come one, come all and make your fingers dance for that multi ball!
