A new arcade has just opened in Ballarat
Lake Gardens Family Entertainment Center

$8.50 entry, and all game free play for 3 hours

Billiard table, darts board, foosball, one or two video machines, and pinball

I was surprised that they had 4 pinball machines, all old EMs
Playfield were in good order (some cupped inserts) , backglasses had been touched up
Badly hacked to rackup credits

But pinball is pinball, and they were working
Williams , Big Deal
Gotlieb, King Pin, Crescendo , Road Race (the squooshy flipper buttons took some getting used to)


honestly, the place is a bit of a dive, but at least somebody is trying

Retropin:
Sounds like someones collection...good luck to them, hope it grows.

ddstoys:
Hopefully it works out and they do well

I can honestly say every arcade I went to back in the day was the same!

Crashramp:
Good to hear someone's having a crack.  ^^^  I hope they can do well from it.
