good afternoon welcome to exit thru the gift shop
today we are at ground control in downtown Portland Oregon this arcade offers vintage
video games and pinball machines as well as serving beer and light meals
but was exceedingly difficult the only way you could get through it was an incredible
amount of memorization and trial and error got a bunch of pop-culture pinball machine
Star Wars Star Trek Lord of the Rings Game of Thrones The Hobbit although I'm
not exactly sure why Indiana Jones kind of looks like Val Kilmer in this picture
all this pinball has been making me kind of thirsty so I'm going to have a Portland beverage
and I'm always a sucker for Deadpool pinball
I've heard of a lot of pac-man's before but I've never heard of
baby pac-man this seems to be a pacman and pinball hybrid
it's on
some ground control merch t-shirts hoodies
compressed rebel ships
we are going see like castle arcade this arcade is situated and a former movie theater and
features nickel games so you pay a small price for admission about 350 per adult and then you
get nickel games for about 1 to 8 nickels per game depending on how cool it is the rules of
the avalon theatres there is admission there's no in and out privileges all games use nickels don't
be rude so the electric castle has actually converted a theater space into a gaming room
you really can't beat Shrek pinball for four nickels
in the Simpsons cookie carnival you get to roll for tickets
we're don't there we go what is it was it Oh what's going on
nothing
I haven't seen this one before it's pop it for gold you actually get to pop a balloon
no pop
and so that's it from the electric castle at the Avalon theater we played for about an hour
on about $15 worth of nickels and had a great time there are a few larger adult
video games but this is mainly kid-friendly and the type of games where you can collect
tickets for prizes we came away with a handful of fun junk and had a good time
