>> FROM THE BECKONING SCREENS TO THE BLEEPING CHIP TUNES.

THE SOUNDS AND SIGHTS OF A VIDEO GAME ARCADE ARE UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE.

AND WHILE THESE DAYS GAMERS CAN GET THERE, SUPER MARIO FIX FROM HOME.

THOSE WHO CRAVE THAT IN-PERSON EXPERIENCE NEED LOOK NO FURTHER THAN BROOKFIELD.

GALLOPING GHOST ARCADE WHERE ARCADE CULTURE IS GETTING A POWER UP.

>> THE THE MOMENT THEY WALK THROUGH THE IT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT RESONATES WITH THEM INSTANTANEOUSLY.

IT TAKES THEM BACK.

>> TO GO IN KIDS BACK IN THE DAY.

MEMORIES COMING BACK.

>> GO >> WHAT'S GREAT ABOUT THIS PLACE IS THAT.

EVERYTHING OUTSIDE OF THE ARCADE GAMING BROWN IS KIND OF LEFT OUTSIDE.

WHATEVER KIND OF DIFFERENCE THAT PEOPLE MIGHT HAVE.

IT'S KIND SQUASHING GUYS COME HERE TO TALK SHOP ABOUT VIDEO GAMES.

WE HAD A COUPLE GENTLEMEN UP FRONT, JUST KIND OF STRATEGIZING HOW TO GET A HIGHER SCORE.

ALSO, >> IT'S PRETTY COOL LIKE >> THE GAMING HERE IS MY LIFE.

SO THAT'S WHAT MAKES IT FUN.

I THINK THAT'S WHAT MOTIVATES PEOPLE TO COME HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE.

>> I LIKE TO DRESS FANCY.

LOOK COOL AND BASICALLY BRING THE COMMUNITY TOGETHER BY, YOU KNOW, LOOKING REALLY NICE AND SHARP.

IT IS LITERALLY A LIVING MUSEUM.

AND, YOU KNOW, IT'S IT'S NOT LIKE A MUSEUM WHERE YOU CAN TOUCH THE EXHIBIT.

IT'S LITERALLY A MUSEUM WHERE YOU CAN JUST PLAY ANYTHING.

>> YOUR HEART DESIRES.

LITERALLY.

EVERY MACHINE HERE IS PLAYABLE.

PERSONALLY PLAN ARCADE GAME SINCE I WAS 4 OR 5 YEARS FIRST DECADE GAME EVER PLAYED WAS ASTEROIDS.

>> IT SUCH TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF FUN FOR ME.

GROWING UP GOING TO ARCADES LIKE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO ABLE TO ENJOY THAT.

IF THERE AREN'T ANY ARCADES, ANYTHING I DIDN'T WANT THIS GO AWAY.

OUR BRUCE COMPANIES DON'T THINK PRODUCTIONS WHICH OPENED UP BACK IN 1994 MAKING VIDEO GAMES AND AS WE WATCH THE ARCADE SCENE, IT WAS ALWAYS ON THE RADAR TO OPEN IN OUR CASE UNTIL 2010, WHEN EVERYTHING JUST HAPPENED TO LINE BROOKFIELD HAD THE FORESIGHT TO LET US TRY AND NOBODY KNEW WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN.

EVEN INDUSTRY PEOPLE ARE SAYING THEY DIDN'T THINK WE HAD LAST MORE THAN 6 MONTHS.

NOBODY HEARD OF REPLAY BUSINESS MODEL WHERE YOU PAID OR FEE AND ALL THE SCENES ARE SET ON FREE PLAY.

BEEN ABLE BRING AND GAME DESIGNERS 30 YEARS AFTER THEY'VE MADE FAMILIES STILL LOVE AND APPRECIATE THE GAME THAT THEY MADE ALL THOSE YEARS AGO.

AND THAT SO SATISFIED OTHER GUYS INSPIRED ME TO GET IN THE GAME DESIGN.

AND NOW WE'RE ABLE TO SHOW THAT PEOPLE ARE STILL ENJOYING THEIR ARTWORK AND THAT >> I KNEW FROM VERY YOUNG AGE THAT I WANTED TO WORK IN VIDEO GAME INDUSTRY.

THERE'S THE GAMING SIDE OF IT SITE OF ARTWORK AND MUSIC AGAIN, JUST GET DO EVERYTHING THAT'S FUN EVERY DAY.

SO IT'S NEVER HEAR A COMPLAINT FROM >> EVERYBODY RECOGNIZES THAT SOUND.

DOC MAX, AS THEIR
