Carolina Arcade Museum 145 East Main Street, Forest City, NC 28043

"We were in town and decided to do a little shopping and what teenager likes to go shopping so we found this cool little arcade close by that we can pay either $7 for one hour or $12 for the entire day and that’s a no-brainer. The entire day is the deal to choose. This time around we got to meet the two owners and they were an absolute pleasure to speak with. Funny enough this is not just for kids. Grown adults will be transported back in time with some of the old arcade games as well as pinball that they have in this cool location. It seems like they had hundreds of games there and all the arcades are in great working condition. Everyone in the arcade younger old was having a great time and this is exactly what we would expect from a small town. What a genius idea for either kids to have fun with their parents or shopping or for the whole family to get together and enjoy a day of gaming and laughs. If you’re in the area, we highly recommend you check this place out and if possible, speak with the owners, they’re great people."

"Our grandchildren LOVE visiting the Carolina Arcade Museum! They were given gift cards for Christmas and we spent almost all day there today. A VERY clean and well-maintained business. They offer a wide variety of retro games. There is also a party room upstairs for birthdays and many other occasions. We have had several birthdays there. There is an area for drinks and snacks also, and other merchandise for purchase. We highly recommend!!"

"Great collection of classic video games from the 80s and early 90s. Good selection of pins too. Playing Out Run really brought me back in time."

"Took my two 12 year old boys here today! We had a blast. These games are all meticulously maintained and in great condition. The pinball section is out favorite and spans everything from early electro-mechanical machines to the newest releases from Stern. We love the one price, play all day pricing model that lets us try everything without spending a fortune. They continually get new games and every time we go, there is something new to try. It was well worth the 75 minute drive to spend the afternoon here!"

"What a place! A must see, no really just go you won't be disappointed. It's crazy cool the games work and you can play them by the hour or for an awesome all day price."
