CRYSTAL CASTLES. If I could find a working console, SO MANY QUARTERS.

Also Centipede.

CENTIPEDE FTW!

Oh MAN, a friend of mine in undergrad had a Crystal Castles arcade console IN HIS APARTMENT. COOLEST THING EVER.

I never played arcade games as a kid. As a college drop-out I was amused by Xenon, a pinball machine game. A recorded voice of some hot chick oooed and ahhhhed and moaned every time the ball hit something and racked up a higher score.

I figured out all the hot and cold spots and ended up winning a lot of free games.

We just went to the MGC last month and it was AWESOME. My husband will be giving a talk there next year, so we get to go again!

I LOVE LOVE LOVED Crystal Castles.

I'm in San Francisco. Which is usually :) but in this case is :(

Sounds awesome though!
