I like M-Brew in Ferndale. Great beer and usually a great lineup. I haven't been in a few months so I'm not sure what's on site right now though.

Mbrew has the newest but most neglected games.
Sparks arcade in New Baltimore has about 45 pins now, some really rare stuff too. They just added a lil pro puttputt pin!
Sparks Arcade at Premier Bowl in Chesterfield is a bit of a drive, but hey they have 43 pins, mostly Williams/Bally. Just added MB and CFTBL this week. Some classic arcades too. Great place.

Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum is a one of a kind place definitely worth checking out, nice lineup of pins but so much else to see everywhere you look, Dr. Bingenpurge is the best quarter you will spend.
Quoted from swillie:Me too.
Nice meeting up with you yesterday. Had a good time playing some games with you.
Thinking I might check out the Marvelous Mechanical location today.
Same to you, was fun! Marvin's is for kids of all ages, and with Marvin having recently passed i'm glad you are going to go see his collection. Look for the switch near front door that triggers the model planes above...i never seen it and didn't know they moved but read about it...
Nice, probably too late to go there tonight then, will check out M-Brew instead. Are the burger's at One-Eyed Betty's any good?

Yep they're good, cool place.

You'll have big regrets going home without going to Marvin's. You can play pins in many places. You will NEVER see another Marvelous Marvin's.

Don't worry, I plan on going tomorrow, just ran out of time today, and wanted to be able to say longer than a couple of hours.
Quoted from TheLaw:Nice I didn't know he had a name...but yes by far my fave thing in there!
I really like that one, but I've always been partial to Chopandoff and The Disgusting Spectacle.
