Back when they existed, did you ever go to a gaming business of some type?  I'm talking about pool halls and/or rooms full of pinball, air hockey, foosball, video games?

I used to go to these to flirt and meet boys.

Did you visit gaming arcades?  Do you think people would go to them, today, if they existed?

Yup! There was a place around here called Good Times. Air hockey was our thing and it could get heated! 
It would be nice to see an age of innocence come back to the younger generations.

I remember my city friends visiting these with their guys. It was a great hang out for many teens back then.

Maybe one day when everyone’s over the internet, it will make a comeback. It would be a fun novelty for sure 👍.

These still exist, at least in Europe. Often the bowling alleys have game areas with video games, ping pong, air hockey, pinball, pool, etc and they also have bars, disco area, and if lucky, a karaoke room/rooms.

I'd 100% be down for this. There was a pinball machine at the bike shop my parents used to go to and I would fixate on the pinball machine every time we went there. I'm also a big fan of third places.
