The Consoles
Play all of your favorite console games from every generation through the 64 bits era.
Pong. Atari 2600. Magnavox Odyssey 2. Intellivision. ColecoVision. Atari 7800. Sega Master System. Nintendo Entertainment System. Sega Genesis. Super Nintendo. TurboGrafx-16. Nintendo N64. Sega Saturn. PlayStation.
All consoles are on original hardware with vintage CRT TVs, and we’ve curated a great selection of games for each system.
The Shooting Gallery
Our handmade, post-apocalyptic shooting gallery is equipped some of the most iconic light guns: the Zapper for the NES; the Light Phaser for the Master System; the Konami Justifier for the Genesis and Playstation; and the Nuby Sniper for the Playstation.
The Computer Lab
For many of us, our first gaming experience was the edutainment titles in our school computer lab like Oregon Trail and Carmen Sandiego.
Our computer lab recreates that experience with some classic home computers from the 70s, 80s, and 90s.
Apple //e. Atari 800. TRS-80 Color Computer. Commodore VIC-20. Commodore 64, TI 99/4A. IBM PS/1 Advisor running Windows 3.11. IBM Aptiva running Windows 98.
The Big Screen
The 64 bit generation was the heyday of local multiplayer gaming. The Nintendo 64 was a standout of the era with four controller ports and a system powerful enough to support 4-player split-screen play.
On our big-screen projector, we’ll feature some classic 4-player N64 games: Mario Kart 64. Golden Eye. Smash Bros.
High Score Contest
Test your skills and compete for prizes in our NES High Sore Contest.
We’ll select three of our favorite Nintendo titles and set up each game on a different version of the NES: the Toaster, the Top-Loader, and the Famicom.
The top score at the end of the event will win a prize!
