This 10,000 square-foot facility features pinball, classic arcade games and novelty machines that are fun for the whole family. Cost to play the games ranges from 25 cents to 50 cents per play. You won't mind being parted with your money as the old familiar clings, clangs beeps and flipper sounds transport you back in time.
Games at the Pinball Hall of Fame have all been restored to like-new playing condition.

All the games belong to Las Vegas Pinball Collectors Club member Tim Arnold. A veteran arcade operator, Arnold moved to Las Vegas from Michigan, where he ran Pinball Pete's in Lansing (and later in Ann Arbor). Now he runs the non-profit Pinball Hall of Fame retro arcade.
The games range from 1950s through 1990s pinball machines.

Q*bert circa 1983! Super Mario Bros. circa 1985! This place is a gamer's paradise.
No retro arcade is complete without a crazy clown.

By the way, since the Pinball Hall of Fame is a non-profit, excess revenues go to non-denominational charities.
