Resurection Of A Fallen Empire ! Rebirth Of The Woodbine Centre Arcade!

3 tokens yay!
orbit only gives 2
clearly woodbine > orbit

1 play = 2 tokens. GGPO woodbine.

Who was that scrub I was beating last night.

Do they have 3rd Strike yet? Apathy and constant disappointment won’t let me check for myself.:shake:

I learned my lesson after the guy told me to wait 1 week for 3rd Strike. I walked into the arcade and saw SF:EX2:wtf:, they even removed CvS2 but kept CvS1:bluu:. On top of that, they’re closed Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

Alex, Steve and/or yourself need to step in and try to do something about it. The owner’s obviously aren’t managing this properly. I’m actually surprised it’s currently still open.

This place just gets better and better.

Great job Dice!! Your negotiation skills are top notch.

i actually laughed out loud at this.
thanks.

Honestly, it’s not his fault. The management there has always been ass, even in the arcade’s prime. If he knew from the beginning he would’ve said so.

“Hey guys, Woodbine’s opening again. Now you can beast on Wrestlefest, SF:EX2 and Space Harrier for $0.66 per game on Thursdays, Fridays (until 9PM) and Weekends (until 5PM). Enjoy.:tup:”

The effort was made, that gets my respect but in the end, it won’t last long. Let’s look at the pros and cons of this so called “arcade”:

Cons (:bluu:)

  • Token machine, 3 tokens for $1. Basically, it’s $0.33 per token, which isn’t bad BUT each game costs 2 tokens.:wtf:

  • CvS1 but no CvS2.

  • No 3S (instant fail IMO).

  • No regular hours of operation, they’re currently open Thursdays and Fridays until 9PM and weekends until 5PM.

  • All the remaining “good games” need maintenance.

Pros (:tup:)

  • Has many popular games ranging from 1987 to 1998 which can be thoroughly enjoyed at this arcade (such as Space Harrier, NFL Blitz and that head to head basketball game).
  • 2i still there?</interest>

…that went well.

Sorry buddy.:tdown:

Unfortunately, it really didn’t.:sad:

…meh, there was an effort. Props, Alex. Props indeed. EX 2 is good… if you like EX 3. People still have this cabinet? I remember Woodbine’s arcade scene being open til later. Those guys are better off giving these titles a better home(Humber). Humber’s got Three, but their arcade doesn’t stay opened past 6 or so. And the whole school shuts down those types of places on Fridays.

…that went well.

This is an example of a low-tier aracade. For shame. GG, Woodbine. You couldn’t get past being a scrub, I would’ve went too. =(

I just hope things get a bit better though. I used to love that arcade. Playing 3S 7 days a week with a non-stop steady flow of scrubs FTW.

…Memories.:sad:
