Very unique old school video arcade located in Alameda's busiest commercial district. Pay for unlimited plays for a certain amount of time.
Decent selection of games range from the oldies like centipede and Pac-Man and Tron up to somewhere more modern racing and fighting games.
Not enough space for the big crowd-pleasing games that you would find at Santa Cruz boardwalk, for example. They have a few cabinets with dozens of games you can select from on ROMs.
It is small and has a couple of seats and a bathroom in the back. Parking is difficult on park street, but you can easily find parking for pay or free a few blocks down.
Wonderful place to take the family and revive my video game glory!
The staff does a fantastic job of keeping up the arcade cabinets. We spend hours here every time we visit Alameda!

in the last weekI love high scores! Games are always changing but it stays $10 an hour. They also just started selling beer!
