I grew up being left alone in malls and family funplexes with an arcade always close at hand so it's a part of gaming culture that is near and dear to me but I'm curious to know if anyone else had similar experiences of losing weekly allowances to to get to the next stage of Capcom's 1942, or play through six-man X-Men the Arcade Game or hell even doing a little ski ball and turning in tickets for cheap prizes you could have bought at half the price it took to earn the proper amount of tickets?
