  1. such a shame arcades are closed now – a major part of our generation’s development. and it wasn’t just the games, it was the atmosphere and it was interesting to see nerdy gamer types getting respected by cool kids – flipping the social strata. although in my area some of the beat-em-up’s didn’t just take place on a screen!
