Atari Expo Arcade Tokens

[Gregory DG]

Hey all,

 

Has anyone but me ever seen an Atari arcade? I mean an arcade actually owned by either Atari or Atari Games?

 

Years ago there was an arcade (of all places) in Winter Haven, FL called Atari Expo. I saved a token, a "fun point" token and several prize tickets from this arcade all with the Atari logo on them. I noticed that Good Deal Games has a token museum and sent them some scans.

So, anyone else ever seen an Atari arcade before?

I didn't even know Atari had their own Arcade tokens. I hope to God I kept the old Aladdins Castle and other tokens from the Arcades in Reno. There was this Arcade there that changed owners at least three times (before going out of business) and had at least a dozen different tokens that the machines would accept. There might be an Atari toekn in there somewhere.

I remember an Atari Expo arcade near me.

 

It's been a long time, and I can't remember much, but I remember it really wasn't anything special. It was just like any another arcade. I believe Atari Games was owned by Namco at the time, so I guess they used the Atari name instead.

 

I know I have a token somwhere too...

I have one of the Family Center tokens, got it off of Ebay though. Never saw any Atari arcades my self.
