I am fortunate to live a short 20 min car ride from the Ghost so I go at least once every couple of months, it's my personal HEAVEN on Earth. I lived in the arcades in the 80's and 90's. Shoutout to the legends, Aladdin's Castle Arcade at the HIP, Dennis' Place for Games off Cumberland, I think that's Norridge but not sure and every 7-Eleven that had arcade games where I spent money on Slurpees, chips, candy and a ton of Street Figher Champion Edition and Mortal Kombat...I am but one of MANY who lived this way as a kid, salute to us.

Well said! If you live within close proximity, you can be considered spoiled because there is no other place like it. If you have easy access to the Ghost, it makes all other arcades look like that 7-11 that had one or two cabinets in the corner.

You are correct. The aisles are tight... but they have to be. There is no other way to cram near 1,000 cabinets in one building without putting them side-by-side. Yes, Fri and Sat nights are the busiest but it isn't as bad as you might think. Still, highly recommend visiting. A really cool place. That back corner where the Silent Hill and Castlevania whip cabinets are have poor ventilation so it is super hot back in that area (especially in the summer time). I also recommend leaving your jacket in the car in the winter time as it is warm in there.

@@skte2die Yes, as long as you keep your daily receipt, you can leave and come back. I recommend eating a big lunch, then going to the arcade, hang out for 4 hours (4 hours is like the blink of an eye when you are there), then you can walk out, drive to any restaurant nearby, grab some food, and come back before they close (which is late, like 1 or 2am or whatever). They also sell Weekly/Monthly/Lifetime passes if you wanted to spend a ton of time there. And there is no food or drinks allowed inside... gotta keep those machines clean.

@@tttarms1970 Heck yeah! Let me know when you go and maybe we can meet up and play some co-op brawlers, Joust, or Smash TV. I try to go at least 1-2 per year. If you have not been there, let me give you some advice. Eat a big meal just before you go because four 4 hours will disappear in the blink of an eye. You can leave and re-enter (just keep your receipt) so either pack a meal and eat in your car or grab fast food down the street, sit down for a few minutes to rest, then go back. At one point, you'll get tired just from standing at the cabinets all day. Wear the most comfortable shoes you own and don't wear a heavy jacket even during the winter as it gets pretty hot in there, especially in the back shooter-section corner (where the Castlevania and Silent Hill lightgun games are). If you bring a wife/gf, have them leave the purses at home because you don't want to hold that stuff and will want free hands. And make a day out of it. There is no point in just going for an hour. You can easily spend an entire day there, literally.
