    Hi Guys:

    My wife and I are planning a visit to Australia and we will be visiting Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

    Anyone know of some good arcades or barcades that have a good selection of pins to play?

    We won’t have a car so something within easy reach of public transport would be ideal.

    Thanks so much.

    Head straight to brisbane/gold coast. I was amazed at how many great pins are scattered around the area. I was finding them in all sorts of random places. Plus plenty of arcades with pins. Enjoy

    In Brisbane look up Netherworld in Fortitude Valley,.. and Pinball Haus is also close,.. short walk from a train station,.. my favourite is Pincadia at Woolloongabba which you’d best get a taxi but only 10 mins from central Brisbane,.. good selections of pins new and old

    Thanks for all the info so far guys.... Really appreciate it.

    We're very excited for this trip. We have already been to Sydney twice in the past and absolutely love it there. You can't beat the McDonalds soft-serve ice cream, with a Cadbury's flake in it for 99¢ (around 70¢ US)!!!!

    Just wish Australia was not so far. The jetlag coming back was off the charts, not to mention our 16 hours nonstop flight from Sydney to Houston and that was before we took a connecting onward flight back to Florida!

    Pity you are not driving, my place is just off the freeway between Sydney and Brisbane.

    Business class on Qantas A380 - Sydney to DFW and you can sleep full length horizontal in your own recliner bed/seat pod the whole way.

    Tried it out a few years ago thinking it wouldn't make much difference with jet lag/time zone body clock compared to Premium Economy recliner seats and it was such a step up I wouldn't take a flight of that duration any other way now.

    I WAS in business class and it sure made no difference to my jetlag!!!
