| - The concept is 5-star worthy, the execution, however, needs some work. Although it definitely has that "cool" factor for those who've never been before....at least it did for me.
Old-school arcade games are scattered on one side of the place while VIP booths complete w/ flat screens and new game consoles line the other side. There's a bar in the middle where you can play the latest, greatest video games (Think Mortal Kombat and Halo) for free...if you don't mind the wait. In the back is a dance floor and a colorful DJ booth for those who want to get their dancing on after a night of playing arcade games.
Sounds cool, right? Well, apparently, a lot of people think Insert Coins is cool judging from the amount of people who were there. All the cool arcade games and the video games at the bar were being played, leaving the just okay ones available. Also, it was hard to walk around the arcade due to the people and the squished layout of the game machines. If you need a place to breath, I'd suggest taking a seat on the couch by the dance floor.
Insert Coins is a unique paradise for those who love arcade games and alcohol. Quite a brilliant concept...the more you drink, the more you play, which equals more quarters for Insert Coins to collect. I think I'll stick to playing video games at home.
