Where to Play: Arcades in the PNW

Acme Bowl in Tukwila has NGBC, I didn’t play it though, so I’m not sure of it’s condition.
Acme also has IIDX, DDR, and ITG2 if you’re into that.

Is that the guy who had that arcade in redmond, and a big tourney a few years ago? I thought he had a bunch of his cabinets setup in an apartment somewhere in Bellevue. His collection is amazing.

Also, Gameworks is the sheeeeiznit.

Gameworks Thurs night is the shiiiiiiiit. Most a the time people pull together for the 10 dollar card an share the wealth. Yea scrubs are there but there are also drunken Sean, Elena, Ken, Ibuki, Ryu, Q, an Remy players so that makes up for it. Also there are bitches so what the fuck else do you want. Pink Sean. Also two dollar shots.

I’m the Ibuki player. Not as good as the Lanwerx meets, but it’s something. It’d be a lot more convenient if it were Fridays nights though. Not sure how often I’ll be going because of my work schedule.

If yer lookin ta play 3s, most of the time there is at least one or two people at Gameworks on any given day but Thurs night is when most people show up. Its wishful thinking but maybe we all can combine our powers, captain planet an the planeteers style, an get a healthy crowd of people there consistently. Thanks for the arcade locals btw.

Not anymore…unless they brought it back? i was there i think within the last 10 days or so…no NGBC there, although i heard they had it there…

what about Gametown? we need to set up some tournies there…before and/or after EVO

im gonna start goint o Gametown on Friday/Saturday nights just to play some Mexicans on KOF98…fuck the bullshit, i feel like im in heaven playing that game

So Olympia has CvS2 now…but the question is, does anyone really play it?

I haven’t played fighting games in so long…I really miss it.

Ha, nobody plays SC2, CVS2, or MVC2 at oly, its a waste. there are tekken DR players tho

Who are you?

This is Mandel, under whose name I’m not sure. But I didn’t know Olympia played DR. Whoever plays there should come to Seatac Mall on the 22nd for our DR tourney.

P.S. I’ll whoop anyone’s ass in SC2. I’m back for a couple of weeks, in Sept… This is Ric.

…Does the woodinville lanwerx no longer have those 3s/MvC2/CvS2 cabs?

So besides Gameworks, there’s no 3s in Washington?

…Woodinville doesn’t have a Lanwerx. =P

The waterfront arcade on the pier has Tekken 5, but got rid of their Marvel. And Chuck E Cheese in Bellevue randomly has King of Fighters… ?

Well, there’s not 3S competition, but there is a random 3S machine sitting in the back of the South Hill Mall in Puyallup.

Do you live around Puyallup? If so, we should have a match sometime there. We’ll create competition. It’ll be ghetto, but it’s better than no comp.

Actually, I live in Olympia, and even that’s only for the next 8 days, because I’m moving to New Mexico.

Get ahold of my friend Stu, Oryian Blue on AIM. He lives in Puyallup and enjoys playing 3S. He’s the guy to know there.

Hiya guys, just moved here from Austin, TX, where even our homeless guys know how to play 3S. That doesn’t mean I’m any good, but at least there’s a 3S machine somewhere here. Gameworks, eh, can’t wait to get down there and see what it’s like.
