    Playland Arcade at Penn State University, University Park, PA.
    On of the larger arcades on the Eastern United States.
    This is not the same location as Santa Monica Pier, CA.
    Short documentary.
    Closed in 2003.
    The original general manager and my old boss, Gene Steele, has passed on.

    My primary arcade as a senior pinball technician in 1990s.
    Basically, put out NIB games from Funhouse all the way through RoadShow.
    Highlights were the era of TAF, IJ:TBA, STTNG, TZ, FT, WH20, and the other "big hitters" than are known today as staple late model SS icons.
    Others handled arcade, as I was way too busy to maintain the rest.
    Generally, 30+ pinball machines or so at any given time.
    Easily close to 100+ video games as at its heyday.

    Somebody needs to dig up some old photos of the NYC Broadway Arcade with Steve Epstein.
    I can only find some in my pinball books.
    That was good memories, not that the "Modern Pinball NYC" is poor either, the games are very pristine, but a tiny selection, in comparison.
