There are dozens of games to choose from, even the oldies "Centipede" and "Galaga." Game prices range from 50 cents to $4 each.

Hours are from 10 a.m. to midnight Sundays through Thursdays and 10 a.m. to 1 a.m. Fridays and Saturdays at 3769 Las Vegas Blvd. South. For more information, call 432-4263.
