Nickel City Xtreme
Couldn’t be happier with the new renovations, our 4 year old has the absolute best time here. A lot of the complaints stem from the fact that there aren’t as many “nickel games”. But there are quite a few still left along with the newer games, which are far more cost effective compared to other arcades we’ve visited. The space is small enough where you can keep a close eye on the kids and the manager Brad has been kind and helpful every time we’ve visited.

We always have such an amazing time! Is it different after the renovations? Of course, but to have a local arcade just around the corner is something not every community has. The staff is always helpful, it's always very clean and with a little bit of discipline you can still have a inexpensive day out with the kiddos.
Energetic gaming area. Had a nice mix of games for the mostly younger set. The staff was fairly engaging. Although trying them breaking them off with their little gaggle to help at the snack counter was a bit difficult but other than that a great experience
Boy has this place changed. I used to come here when it was Super Just Games and twice the size. Maybe that's why it feels lacking now. No free play. No pinball. Good amount of games with damages joy sticks or buttons. My kids enjoyed it and for the price you can play a decent amount but it's all mostly ticket getters and full sized mobile games. Nice to see some machines are still here 20 years later. Even had a Blitz '99 machine with N64 memory card hook up. That was nostalgic.
