[QUOTE="Zombie Aladdin, post: 144637, member: 4242"] Oh, I certainly know about Pins & Needles. I've been there a few times. I've been to 82 as well. I prefer it there as there's more open space and because I like playing pinball during the day more than the night. (Well, it's only open during daylight hours on Sundays, but curbside parking is free on Sundays in Little Tokyo, and it's a block away from there.) I've never heard of Nickel Nickel...which is odd, as I'm sure I've been to many of the same locations as you. Also, I can't step into a Chuck E. Cheese's because the ones around here have bouncers. It's like...the reverse of a nightclub or something, as they will block any adults from coming in unless children are present. As for arcade lighting, most of the remaining arcades here, even the social hangout ones, tend to be pretty brightly lit. I think the only two arcades I'v been in recently that were dim were Japan Arcade (in Little Tokyo; now closed down) and Family Amusement Corporation. Japan Arcade made me not like dim lighting as it had a Data East [i]Time Machine[/i], and as the playfield is black, I could hardly see anything going on. I hope I'm not strange for saying that I prefer brightly lit places (and daylight) for pinball. I just need some time to listen more until I can recognize everybody's voices, though it may take some time. [/QUOTE]
