Arcade Monsters - San Diego San Diego, California, United States 4/5 Interesting Vibe. The decor is edgy, psychedelic, comic con. The whole place is painted in glow in the dark graffiti art. Very well done. It is down close to the Padres stadium. It looks like they have a little bit to appeal to most age groups. There is an ok selection of older games '75-83, no vector games though. They have quite a few fighting games from the mid '80s-90's. There are a lot of newer racing games, dance games, and many other games from Japan that I hadn't seen before. They also have areas with console games, as well as standard air hockey, ski ball, basketball. Probably the highlight was they have most of the new release pinball machines. We went there after touring the USS Midway, and our older teenagers/20 somethings had a ton of fun. $25 gets you in to play, or you can do $35 and be able to re-enter. They have standard arcade fried foods, nothing special about that though.
