retro arcade
Old-school game hall
A retro arcade is a venue featuring classic coin-operated video games from the 1970s through 1990s—machines like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Street Fighter II.
Some operate as bars or entertainment centers; others are private collections.
The term also describes the aesthetic or experience of playing these older games: We spent the evening at a retro arcade downtown.
