Out of This World Arcade and Game 415 Howard Street, Petoskey, MI 49770

"Oh my gosh. So I’m well aware there is a retro game store in my town (TC) but let me tell you, the drive is worth it to this place. I have terrible anxiety and I always feel welcomed, never belittled and my questions and concerns are always welcomed. I have bought so many games from here and will continue to do so. This is my go to spot. Heck, it’s a cool place to just check out!"

"I recently went in to buy some wii games used. I understand that the games come used and could potentially not work. One of the games I purchased I asked if he fully tested the game since I saw some scratches and he assured me that the game was fully tested. I left pleased and was excited to play the $15 Wii game but when I popped the disc in it’s so damaged it won’t even load. I would have rated this store higher if I wasn’t reassured many times that the game would work since he “tested” the game."

"Very very cool place. Read some of these 1 star reviews and kinda laughed to myself because that’s not at all what our experience was like. Owner was very kind and also incredibly knowledgeable. Now that we know this is here we will most definitely be back. The arcade itself is one thing but the layout of the entire vintage video game collection is well thought out and hits all the right nostalgic feelings."

"Fairly small selection of vintage arcade games and as to be expected some were down with monitor issues but al worth the visit. You pay $5 for entry fee and games do require quarters so it's a bit different model than the "bar cade" scene with unlimited play for an entree fee but he isn't selling drinks or food. Awesome collection of vintage home console games as well. You pay in the coin shop store front upstairs and the arcade owner will open up the basement arcade. Grant (owner) is super nice and knowledgeable if you and your kids respect his equipment and don't act like an animal. Would totally recommend."

"My 7-year-old and I (a 80s kid) had an absolute BLAST at the Out of This World Arcade and Games. The owner has been collecting arcade cabinets and games since he was 15. He's passionate about retro gaming and has even bought and refurbished non-functional cabinets. In addition to playing games you can also browse the owner's massive collection of Atari 2600, Commodore 64, NES, SNES, N64, and Sega game cartridges and consoles (most in original packaging!!!) - all for purchase. The best part is that each game is set at 25¢ per play! My son and I spent $20 and 2.5 hours there, it was the best $20 I've spent in a long time - the memories and fun we had on the 30+ games was worth every quarter. Bonus Round: It's in the basement of the coin shop. It's like walking into a arcade speakeasy."
