16 Bit Bar + Arcade is finally opening today (Friday Aug 29th) at 4:00. I will be stopping in to check it out... although I imagine it will be mobbed tonight.

On facebook they do mention 21 and over only, but that they will announce special days where underage players will be allowed.

That is cool, didn't know they would have a pinball... And although I have seen a Joust at a show, I have never played it. I'm intrigued to see what kind of crowd they will pull in there for sure.

Went up on labor day around 6:30 and it wasn't too full. Crowd was about what I expected for my 'hood, a mix of hipsters and gaming fans. They definitely put some money into the remodel. Place looked great with lots of cool retro themed art. I would agree that the pins were awkwardly placed, definite choke point on the way to the bathrooms.
Overall I was a fan and will be going back for sure.
I'll see how busy it is on a weekend night this Saturday. Lakewood is having a big, outdoor beer and wine fest that ends at 10:00, so I'm sure we will be heading down to 16 bit for a few cocktails and games afterward.

Just drinks, but like a couple of other Lakewood bars, you are welcome to bring in your own food from any of the (many) surrounding restaurants.
