If you are in the Athens, GA area and are looking for some retro gaming goodness then there is a new business that opened its doors there a few weeks ago to cater to your tastes called Flashback Games.
The official opening was on January 12th so we have not missed this news by too much. Among the games you can expect to find therein: TRON, Asteroids, Centipede, Joust, Tempest, Turbo, Wizard of Wor, Star Wars, Ms. Pac-Man, Pole Position, OutRun, PacMania, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, NBA Jam, MERCS, Street Fighter II, and more. They also have some pinball games like Scorpion and Lost World. To play the games, Flashback went the Galloping Ghost route of charging a flat admission fee with all of the games on free play. It’s interesting in the setup being spread over several different rooms, that’s unusual since most of the time arcades are done in more open space venues. Either way we wish them the best of luck in the new business! You can also check out their Facebook page here.
