Starfighters #Aracde in Mesa, AZ is one of the best I've ever been to. It has a focus on 80s cabinets and there are over 200 machines.
I can't recommend the arcade enough.More pics in replies this post!

The arcade from my childhood had turned almost entirely into a slot machine parlour.
Now, they've gotten rid of the slots and started bringing back some 80s and 90s coin-ops. Brilliant.
If they were to bring back Daytona USA, I'd already know exactly what to do. One phone call and just a single phrase: "Fancy a quick afternoon race?". And I’m sure that, even after 31 years, we'd find ourselves right out front at 16:30, our bikes chained to the nearest pole, getting hyped at the words "Gentlemen, start your engines!"
DAYTONAAAAA!

Credit boards - the bridge between old games and new coin rejectors
-
As electronic coin rejectors got more and more popular, plenty of old games, vending machines and other coin operated things could've benefited from the fact that instead of exact change, the user could have paid with whatever coins they had on them provided they had enough to pay for the game/service.
The old machines generally had just a switch to add a credit once a coin passed a mechanical rejector. So how could those things be updated to understand a multi-channel rejector that tried to communicate the coin values to the host machine?
Enter the credit boards. They ran microcontrollers and had removable ROM chips on the board. The board listened to the rejector and once it calculated enough money had been paid, it triggered one pulse to the switch that used to be connected to the old mechanical coin rejector, thus making it possible to pay for example with 5x 20cnt for 1€ product. The pricing was on the ROM chip and changes just needed a new ROM.

Man, I wish
I could go back in time and tell my younger self it is possible to play the exact roms as in the arcades on my #Amiga500. Not inferior ports and downsized games due to diskspace, but pixel perfect original #Neogeo games like #DoubleDragon....it would have blown my mind and I would not have believed me. #Retro #emulation #arcade #coinop Next buy: a 9 pin joystick with at least 2 separate action buttons, more also okay. -
