Wow, I've completely forgotten about ArcadeUFO. Completely fell off my radar which is strange since you guys have more legacy than institutions like WNF and, in some sense, Next Level. I even still see mentions of 8otB here and there. You had a F-Zero AX machine at one point, correct? I definitely agree arcades make a fantastic third place. Planning trips to e.g., Arcade Infinity (RIP) or a Round 1 is one thing, but having a place outside of school and home I can routinely drop in and feel welcome even when I have no particular business to do there was why I kept going to local mall Tilt arcades (and Borders bookstores while I'm at it). Even as more machines go online in Japan[0] or scenes establish other events for their game[1], I still think they're a worthwhile addition to a community.
