| - I reviewed this place when it first opened and I've been going as often as i can. Whenever i havent went to Game Nest for more than 2 days it feels like weeks. A lot has changed ever since their initial opening. Things have changed from deals to the arcade cans they have now.
Prices have remained the same, but new deals have been added.
$8 for one hour
$14 for two hours
$18 for an all day pass
Tuesdays: Buy one all day pass, get one free ($9 ea.)
Keep in mind that once the passes are bought, you are able to leave and come back as long as the time has not expired.

I might be missing some, but thats a majority of it. The arcade has a heavy focus on rhythm games and fighting games. Most of the rhythm games were from an arcade that was open two years ago called So Good Arcade. I used to have to hop back and forth to each arcade, but they merged in 2015 in early February. I was super fuckin hyped when I saw Maimai in that building. There are a few games that went away over the year and the only ones I remember was Initial D3, two large pc cabs, DDR Extreme, House of the Dead 1 and 2, Virtua Cop 2, a few multicades, and CarnEvil. Even though cabs have been in and out of the arcade, the place makes up for it by replenishing it with newer and more interesting games.
Game Nest also has game stations. There are 6 stations plus 4 single stations. Each of the 6 game stations includes a couch, an Xbox One, a PS4, a WiiU, and a large TV. Their selection of games has a good variety of choices. They have recent shooters, RPGs, sports, fighting games, and party brawler. Also they have the Price is Right: Decades for the Wii. Each of the 4 single stations include a computer chair and a conputer monitor. 3/4 of the stations have a ps4 and the last game station has an Xbone. Also every station has a charging station and youre able to get android or iphone chargers for checkout.
They also have snacks. Chips, candy, and a large selection of drinks. Be sure to stay hydrated when playing DDR.
The place is a lot of fun and the staff are fun to talk to and have made their way into the arcade community. Try to socialize here when you can. Then, you cam be part of the rad ass arcade community Vegas has.
