| - Pinball Hall of Fame was definitely cool!
Picked up a friend in town that totally digs classic pinball games. Didn't have much time (2 hours) before she had to be back to her work group. Decided to take her to the pinball hall of fame and play a few games.
Now if your into CLASSIC video games and pinball machines this is your place! The place is very easy to miss if your not looking at the marquee on Tropicana. Parked, walked in and immediately flooded with old school, retro games of all sorts. There is no cover or anything so that's cool.
I'm not gonna lie, some of the game were not in playable condition and a few of the joysticks of some of the games we played stuck or didnt go in the direction that we wanted.....
BUT....All in all a great experience and place to check out if you have some time to kill! Old School claw machines, TRON, Galaga, Karate Fighter, Star Trek Pinball, lots and lots of games. The dollar changer is kind of janky, and I think I saw the guy that does repair running around at a couple points, and would be awesome if they took that left area and just put some wall dividers to tie the place together. But the parts and pieces of long dead machines are here and there and this workbench of a million parts, pieces and doodads is in the back which would probably be a tinkerer's wet dream of spare parts.
They look like they bust ass to keep the place going, and I'm sure they are severely understaffed, they do a great job of keeping the games ALIVE!
I will definitely come back, not really a date place, well maybe it is if you play the pinball machines. ;)
