Arcades with working TMNT machines
 
Thought it'd be useful to keep track of what few arcades (or laundromats, bowling alleys, skating rinks, etc.) have working TMNT games 'round the world. I know they're dwindling, especially in the US, but it would be neat to have a list. Just let me know and I'll add it. I'll start the list off:

United States
Arcade UFO TMNT. Austin, TX
Dorky's Bar Arcade - TMNT. Tacoma, WA, 9th & Pacific

Wow I honestly didnt think there was any!

Ninjinister 12-30-2010 08:17 PM

There is indeed, and I completed it with a co-worker after the office this evening. Pumped all the quarters I had into it ($3 or so).

Been awhile but this rollerskating rink in Milpitas, Cali where I used to live had one. I doubt it's changed it's been there forever. It was the first game. The Nickle City in San Jose used to have the Pizza Drop game but I haven't been there in forever it might be gone or hell they might have one of the other games by now.

Good idea. I've been scooping out places for TMNT machines recently and no dice. Though I managed to find a spider-man game which is fun as hell, I'll still keep my eyes peeled. They gotta be out there somewhere! I also find it funny that some old pizza place up the street from me has 3 cabinets and the carry-out right next to it have 3 cabinets but no TMNT : (

I know the closest Chucky Cheese had one (biggest reason I loved to go as a kid 4 played TMNT). Haven't been in years, may be gone now.
EDIT Whoops....

If it's closed, doesn't that stand to mean that it's no longer there? :ohwell:

Arcade UFO in Austin, TX has a setup, I believe it's 2 player only. 25 cents! ;)

Here's a link that might help some people, a listing of TMNT machine sightings: http://www.aurcade.com/games/view.aspx?id=241

This is a good site for finding arcades in your area, although it can quickly become dated seeing as how arcades are such a volatile business nowadays. For instance, I've been to Tornado Terry's recently and they do not have a TMNT setup at the moment. But they do have Moo Mesa and Battletoads. :lol:

MOO MESA?! I loooove that game! Very similar to sunset riders though. And thanks for the link, that's awesome I was at Hershey Park last year and missed it : ( D'aaaaw shellshock!

Ninjinister 01-01-2011 05:21 PM

Grand.

Keep in mind folks, this is for confirmed, recent sightings. If you saw it a dozen years ago, it doesn't count.

Went to a roller skating place that had Moo Mesa AND TMNT right next to each other.

The Arcade near my house has a 2 player only one that says "Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles" on the Cabinet, I think he must have gotten the machine from the UK.

A snow tubing place just a couple miles down the road from me (I live about a half-hour drive north of Saint Paul, Minnesota) had an arcade machine of the first game as recent as—well, the last time I remember seeing it was probably about ten years ago. That's quite a long time ago, but at the time arcades were dwindling, so I was really surprised even then to find an arcade machine—and better yet, of one of my favorite Konami beat 'em ups!

Went back to the place a few years later, and have gone plenty of times since, and while they still have a lot of arcade games there, I haven't seen the Turtles game—though maybe they moved it upstairs to the "party suite" or whatever. I should ask 'em about it. Maybe, if they haven't already gotten rid of it, I can get it from them. :D Gotta also try to snag the X-Men arcade game from a local movie theater, as well as their cabinets for Rampage and Super Off Road. But, where would I put this stuff? :p

Pinballz Arcade in Austin, TX has a 4 player TMNT machine now. :)
