Apparently There Are Still Arcades

So, anyway, i guess this is video game releated - so i will put it here

A few weeks back i went near a place called the Garden of the Gods (for some reason - red rocks).  Well anyway, there is a tourist trap town called Manitou Springs outside of Colorado Springs (CO, US).  They had some of the retro machines playable for $.25.  They had some of the classics too. 

i played Pac-Man, Donkey Kong and Gorf.  These were modified two player units (with only one player currently) with kind of loose joysticks.  However if you compare Pac-Man on XBLA to the arcade game, the arcade game is much better (at least from a control standpoint).  Unfortunately, when it clicked that they actually had Space Invaders- the machine kind of ate my money.  i really, really wish i would have brought more quarters (for some reason, the concept of "arcade" didn't click that day for me).
