How disappointing..

Some of you might recall that I mentioned having finally found a local, classic arcade at the mall that had a Super Pac-Man. I was so happy as this was the first Super Pac-Man I had been able to play in roughly 30 years. Unfortunately, it suddenly disappeared soon after that, but I had hoped it was simply in for repairs as I know those units can be touchy. Tonight I visited the mall and that arcade and asked the owner what had happened to the Super Pac-Man. Turns out he sold it! It's not a true arcade, but more of a show room for his online arcade game sales! Argh! There is no indication of that at all in the arcade, no signs or prices on the games at all. I just shook my head and left, very disappointed and (after the rotten evening I had already had) decided I will probably not be going to the mall anymore. This just reinforces the fact that in order to enjoy these games, I have to try and own them myself. I can't rely on there being anyplace in this dump I live in having decent games that I can just go and play.

On a bit of a related note, I think I am going to start doing most of my shopping on Amazon. Was a bad evening and that fake arcade was just the icing on the cake for me. :(

Dover, Ohio. If there is a point that is farthest away from the sun, that's where my town and area is at. Not a good place for hobbies like retro gaming or retro arcade gaming. Sorry, I'm feeling very flustered tonight.

 

Ask him if he has a warehouse with a lot more stock. Which part of Ohio are you in?
