LAKE GENEVA WI, ARCADE
chrisst...@yahoo.com
So a recent thread started over on the pill user group so I am also
including you guys because it is an arcade that has a lot of Classic
Vids. Here is my post after going down and checking out the place.
It is called GameLand.

Ok I finally made it down to the Arcade. With it being Winter the
hours are limited. 11am to 12am on weekends. Hours expand in the
summer. The sign on the door still said stop at the counter to pay
the $2.00 entrance fee. I walked in and acted like I knew where I was
going and no one asked me about the fee. Now many of you may say by
paying the fee helps fund the arcade but there is honestly no way they
putting that money into the place. Also if you spend more than 20
minutes in the place you will give them $2 in tokens that you can not
get back from the broken machines. There was another post from August
that I ran into and like that post I was surprised at the amount of
clasic 80's Vids in the place. It is realy a Vid Nuts Place. Like
others have said all the machines have signs right above the coin
slots that state something along the lines of "Use this machine at own
risk. Not responsible for lost tokens or broken machines." It was
shorter but that is the low down of it. The Pins were very sad. The
Mousin Around was a lot of fun. It was in good condition and overall
was the hit to me of the place. I have listed all the machines they
currently have in the place. I have denoted sit down games and games
not working. Many of them had signs on them that said "I'm Broken."
Here is a link to just a few pictures i took while in there.

Hey right. It is strange because growing up here the DnD
manufacturing facility and business was never taken seriously but the
employed a far amount of people and did some pretty good business.
