That an arcade facility actually exists ...at least now a days in the U.S.A. (unlike Japan).
The prevalence of arcades is 10% today compared to its heyday in the 80s to early 90s.

Most arcades never had a game that featured Sonic the Hedgehog or Bowser either... unless you count the semi-obscure Nintendo Play-Choice and SegaSonic the Hedgehog.

I wanna say I've seen Mario Kart cabinets, but then again if that's the case we wouldn't have Sugar Rush.

Ah, I forgot about that! Yes, I think Namco and Nintendo co-op'd to put some of those in arcades. I saw one in my local Wal-Mart a few years back.

I played a Mario Kart arcade machine once! It was at Disney World, in the Toy Story themed Pizza Planet restaurant. It was set up like any racer - you sit in it, with steering wheel and pedals. It was really old, but it had a coin collection element like Mario Kart 7 does now. That was only this past Christmas, so it might still be there.

Looks like it doesn't have the red part thats says Teenage Mutant Ninja. But the quality is too fuzzy to tell.

I was surprised too when i saw that arcade cabinet doing a brief cameo and it was neat to see one of the best arcade games do an appearance.

What's the point of having the arcade there when their just gonna slad certain essential parts of it. Isn't that kind of visual unpleasantries just bad business? Moreover, they could might as well avoid using the tmnt arcade machine if they aren't going to show it as a whole.
