Poor condition, no noise at all. 1 p is the only side that works, the 2 playerside is broken. very bad condition.
If you don't find the topic interesting...don't post in it. Who knows there may be some people who play the games everytime they go to Six Flags. I personally don't, but since its at Six Flags ill give them a fair chance to talk about them.
DDR is the spawn of satan. Not really, its not evil, just stupid. I don't need to dance on a pad of squares by myself or next so someone. I can find other more original ways to make a fool of myself, and if I want to dance, I'll find myself a girl, not a machine.Sorry, DDR was mentioned, I had to rip on it just a little.
Like Dave said, the arcades are part of SFGAm. Last time I checked, this site was based on SFGAm. If we want to talk about the restrooms at the park (actually I did a poll on it awhile back ) , we will talk about it.Being one of the elders on this site, I can say that I am not impressed with today's arcades. Everything is around $1 to play. I loved the 80's where arcade machines were simplistic and cost 25 cents.Those DDR machines I never understood. Anyone who thinks that is dancing needs to get a reality check.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.
Boy if Jeff saw this topic on Coasterbuzz.... I've never go to the arcade but when you get off Ricochet, you exit through an arcade. Theres a lot of stuff in there! I was surprised. But I wouldnt waste my time unless it was raining or something.

I love 25 cent pinball. If SFGAm had that, I'd play a dollar or two every time I was there. But now it seems you get 5 minutes of play for a dollar, and the tables are so complex you have no idea what to do other than hit the ball away from the bottom. Oh, and SFGAm really needs Centipede, Dig Dug, Defender, and Donkey Kong.

it isnt, unless you do FS.. the only game that could possibly teach you SOME form of dancing is konamis para para, wich is extreamly, uhh i wont say just caus i wont offend.
th airhockey machines dont work!!! i think i found 1 out of 4(?) that partially keep the score.....but the other machines dont ave the little things you hit the puck with... but i love the game and i'll play it once in a while when its the crowedest part of the day(depending on if theres somthing better to do)

T_Biggs if you go to Cedar Point you should hit the big arcade they have there. Tons of old school pinball and video games. They had some old pinball called Hercules that used what look to be billard pool balls on a huge board. Great America should get an old school arcade. Kinda like the top floor of Disney Quest if you ever went there.
