I was just at the Pinball Hall of Fame, I probably spent 2 and a half hours there! Great place! That and Gold and Silver Pawn Shop were my two day trips, both were worth visiting.

I live close to the Playdium in Mississauga which must be the only one still left in Canada
http://www.playdium.com
It's not a bad way to kill a couple of hours and is actually surprisingly busy most days. It's funny since there is also one of the last remaining stand alone Krispy Kreme donuts here as well. I guess people around here find it hard to let go of certain things.

I remember playing Missile Command (yikes) at Esso Plaza before seeing Lord of the Rings. It was a rerelease of the Ralph Bakshi cartoon and not the Peter Jackson one of course. Those theatres were the smallest ones ever (5 rows of seats maybe?)

The airport is pretty damn good, Flippers before security has about 8 video games and 3 pinball. Then there are 2 rooms after security with around 10 video games and 6 pinball in total. Not really an option unless you are flying or want to pay $30 in parking though.
I don't really consider the theaters real arcades, guess I'm old school but all I see are Dance Revoltion and the huge shooting or driving games.

Can't you still just go to the ticket dispenser and get a new one? That way you can just park for free.

First 30 mins are free in short-term, correct? So you're saying just drive around and park again before that time is up? Lot of work to play a few games, all the best stuff is past security anyways.

Used to go there all the time. Lots of good SFII competition there.
