Do you remember when you were a kid and day dreamed about blowing your entire allowance on Pac-Man, pinball machines, and Street Fighter? Those were the days, weren’t they? If you think these simpler times are gone forever, you are mistaken, as there is an arcade in Colorado that houses 400 of these classics and is guaranteed to bring out your inner child:
Located in Manitou Springs is Arcade Amusements; an "old-fashioned arcade with a large collection ranging from vintage pinball to modern video games."
More commonly known as the Manitou Springs Penny Arcade, this retro gem is sure to transport you back in time, with games dating as far back at the 1930s.
As the name suggests, some games only cost a penny to play, while others max out at $1.50, so be sure to bring lots of pennies AND quarters when you visit.
Arcade Amusements is located at 930 Manitou Ave. in Manitou Springs and is open Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
