    Wolfy Beat's TOTAN

    That is impressive B_R!
    Thanks for the pics. From the looks of it, it seems like the old set from 'Office Space'...
    It even has the same wall color from the film! Don't believe me?

    BAM!

    Big Thanks to B_R, wolfy, technobarn, and trident for coming out and showing us their support. And thanks B_R for shooting some footage so people can check out the space!

    Yep, wolfy whooped me on ToTAN but I'm not giving up without a fight. lol
    And for those who are considering coming out, I promise it is cooler than the office from office space!

    Awesome video, IMO your best video yet! Places like this remind me of pinball's best days in 1992. Everyone seems to be playing some kind of pinball or video game, and they even have console games for play and sale! We have a local arcade in Nashville, Tennessee called Game Galaxy that is a lot like this place, only bigger since it's in a mall. I would really like to see it grow and become as successful as this! The owner unfortunately has been battling low foot traffic in one of the most endangered malls in the country. Actually, it once was very successful before they were kicked out of another popular mall in favor of an Incredible Dave's, a family "arcade" (and Dave and Buster's rip-off) with redemption machines and only two video games. It was one of the worst examples of a turn-and-burn tactic for the owner who managed to successfuly argue that Game Galaxy "had the same stuff" as them to the owners of the mall. Here's a video of what it once was just a year ago:
