If you grew up in the era of pinball machines and video games like Donkey Kong, you probably remember blowing your entire allowance at the arcade. There’s an arcade right here in Utah that will bring out your inner child when you visit. It’s full of vintage games (and some newer games, too), so you’re going to want to check it out.

Nickel Mania has three arcades in Utah: Murray, West Jordan, and Springville. They're all open seven days a week. There's a small admission fee of $2.25 per person.

This arcade specializes in vintage pinball machines, and there are plenty to choose from. While every Nickel Mania location has more than a dozen, the West Jordan arcade has several rows of these beauties.

Do you remember playing pinball as a kid? These machines will bring to mind those childhood memories. If anyone gives you grief about spending an hour playing pinball, remind them that you're increasing your hand/eye coordination.
