In Nederland is de Arcade scene zo goed als dood, maar dat is ook het geval in Amerika. Maar daar zijn nog enkel arcade hallen open en daar kan je nog altijd binnen lopen en een spelletje spelen. Daarom heeft de website Topless Robot deze lijst gemaakt en daar van is de onderstaande mijn favoriet.

8. Barcade - Brooklyn, NY

Walter Day and Billy Mitchell have different opinions about Barcade, but here at Topless Robot, the idea of combining video games and alcohol sounds like one hell of a combination. Opened in 2004 by a group of four friends, Barcade currently features 43 video game classics, as well as an enormous selection of craft beers.

It would be easy to write off Barcade as just an ale house with a few video games to play, but it has attracted hardcore gamers from all walks. Notable world record holders like Hank Chien (Donkey Kong) and George Leutz (Q*Bert) are often seen practicing at their choice machines. As further proof of concept, Barcade has since opened three more locations in New York, New Jersey and Philadelphia, and dozens more pretenders have popped up across the country. If that wasn't enough to prove it's worth, Barcade Brooklyn was named the best bar in NYC by Foursquare. It's a great place to button mash while getting smashed.
