Very cool, Thomas!

I like the Arkanoid cabaret! I 'need' one of those too!

Wonder how many machines you have to own to get on a news story/radar. :) I have seven, one pinball and a jukebox, so clearly not enough lol

I think I remember reading a post something like this on KLOV once along the lines of "My arcade was featured on a TV show!", but it was just an episode of Hoarders.

A few more games down here and we'll just about be there! When are you coming to the Kawarthas to share your Tempest strategies?

My Tempest strategy is very simple: Caffeine. Lots of it.

Awesome gameroom for sure, and I really like the editing on the news coverage too.
