Our view: If you like games, Yestercades is the place for you. They have classic arcade games like Pac Man, Donkey Kong and Frogger. They have pinball machines. They have both newer gaming systems like, X Box, Playstation and Wii; and older gaming stations like, Atari and Genesis. They have tons of games available for each system for you to choose from and play. Even gamers who do not like video games will enjoy Yestercades. There is a whole section of board games including classic games like Clue, Monopoly and Trivial Pursuit as well as lesser know games like Lets Go Shopping, and The Babysitters Club Game. You can even trade in your old games and/or gaming systems for cash, credit, or free gaming time on the arcade floor. Otherwise, gaming time is available for $8.75 an hour plus tax or $25.00 a day plus tax. Birthday parties and other event packages are also available. Just be aware, the party room is quite a tight squeeze, Food is a party add on and there is not a lot of it served. 3 pizzas are served for 15 guests or 4 pizzas for 20 guests and that does not take into account any adults accompanying the children if you are having a kids party. Yestercades is open on Monday - Thursday 11:30 AM to 12:00 AM, Saturday 10:00 AM to 2:00 AM, Sunday 11:00 AM to 2:00 AM.
And that's our view. For more information go to yestercades.com or see Monday's Talking Topics.
