Hey everyone

Today i went to Amusement 222 in laval  I was shocked how this place have changed they have pulled all the games & just kept the driving simulators & a few fighting games.

Most of the games need attention : buttons not working , monitors fading , coin door busted , speakers busted , ect

I played a couple of games of Galaga /pac man  ''the monitor needed adjustments....''
played some tekken 5 (blown speakers/1button not working everytime....)
played some tekken tag tournament (cap kit needed)
and sega outrun 2006 (monitor fading)


then i decided to go see  if they still have pinball machines,  then i noticed maybe 10  games lined up/unplugged facing the doorway
with their power cords up top

I don't know if they are willing to sale them.... but if they are un-used why have them! ^^

bottom line...
i give this place a good 1 year or 2 , and it's long gone.

Probably already sold to somebody, they won't keep machine line up like that unless they can't put something else... you can ask them, maybe with luck you can get one machine at good price... after few repairs and a good cleaning job

There was a thread here last year saying that they were selling the business.  I am pretty sure that no-one offered much and that they are moving remaining stuff to operators and such.  Kids today play with iPods and internet and don't play Pool and Arcades too much at all.

I hate to see this place go as it brings memories of me as a young teenager in the 80s playing there 1-2 times a week for a couple of years....
