What a beautiful arcade!! It makes me so happy to see that places like these are providing communities with some of the best games, both old and new, for everyone to experience for the first time or 1000th time! Not just that, but also crazy affordable! $10 for all day access to all of the games shown today is an insane value. The last time I saw a $10 all day play was back in the early 2000's. I'd love to check this place out one day :)
@@vectoralphaAI and worth every penny! 🤑 haha such a buzz kill 😂. come tf on... I’d love to have a retro arcade in my area. Every town should have one 👾🕹️😊 (thanks for doing the math anyhow lol)
Oh man Gauntlet Legends. Being 6 or 7 whenever I first saw that and being able to save your characters while also being 4 player was love at first sight!
Yo, this is very rad ^^ Terminator 2 would be the favourite pick. For me it's the most nostalgic arcade game of all those. Fiancées fam is over there in y'alls area so we travel there often, so pretty glad I found out about this place and the game shop ^^
Thank you, Sam for keeping the retro arcade gaming scene alive. Looks like an amazing arcade. Better than any modern arcade that are just ticket game gambling halls for kids.
I like that they don’t just have random vintage machines in there that they were able to get their hands on. These are legit fun, co-op friendly games.
I agree! I like that they have some all-time arcade classics mixed in with different experiences like rhythm games and consoles. That place looks awesome!
@@travisnorman Yep. Would’ve been easier and probably a lot cheaper to just stock the building with vintage machines with name recognition, but you can tell they put a lot of thought into the entire vibe of the space.
Wow that place looks like a ton of fun. Way better and more nostalgic than a dave and busters. I would go and support this place in a heartbeat. Some other of my favorites i didn't see here are SF 2, Mk 2, mk3 ultimate, Contra or Super C, super punch out, WWF WrestleMania, 1943, after burner, space harrier, TMNT arcade game, operation wolf, double dragon and DD 2 the revenge, golden axe, dragons lair, space ace, galaga, star wars to name a few. But you guys got more than enough there for a damn good night. Awesome concept and business model. Wish you much success 🙏👍
I had never heard of a place like this until last week when I went to the same thing in London, Ontario. Having a flat fee for all you can play and beer? Brilliant. Best idea ever. Probably.
That place looks so awesome. Dating myself, but I grew up in the 80's, when arcade's were the 'thing'(I was obsessed with Punch-Out and wasted so much of my mom's money playing that). Sad that they are gone now, except for the select few places around like you have here, which let's folks like myself relive the AWESOME times we used to have back in the day, and introduce the younger generations of how awesome these places are. Wish I lived closer, but next time I take a trip down to your way, I'm gonna make it a point to drop by. Thank you for keeping places like this alive for all to enjoy!
I'd be there all the time if i lived there. Last time i went to the arcades was in 1998. Where i live they disappeared entirely once internet cafes became a thing
Wow this is a rad bar for sure! Love all the arcades and pinball machines! I was looking for Killer Instinct that was my favorite arcade growing up. I also love the mural on the walls that what makes the place pop!
Wonderful retro video game bar and arcade. I love many arcade games but Pac-Man , Donkey Kong 3 , Street Fighter 3rd Strike and Super Mario Bros. Mushroom World Pinball are always wonderful to play. Cool video. ^_^
Wow this looks like a blast. You really know how to setup a good shop! From the retro game store to this bar, i'm very impressed. If only y'all opened up in California..
I lived in Fort Walton Beach with my girlfriend for a year in 2021, I loved hanging out there on Killer Queen night! My only question is, WHERE IS THE GUNSLINGER GAME THAT WAS IN THE FRONT??? That was legitimately my favorite arcade game I have ever played and my girlfriend and I still talk about how much we want to go back to visit and play again! I hope it is alive and well somewhere, I miss it so much. Either way, it's so cool that you all popped up in my recommended, the bar and the game shop are such gems in the panhandle. Keep it up guys!
You guys did a great job with thos place. The set-up and atmosphere looks great, the price is affordable, and you have some great games. We have an arcade/bar in Sacramento, CA, but I love everything about this arcade. I've only been to my local one (Coin Op) once so they may have some different games now.
Die Hard arcade is so memorable for some reason. I played it once as a kid and never forgot it. Also really like the wide selection of fighting games, that's pretty cool.
Im from London but I went to Austin for my honeymoon and I reckon we spent like half the days we were there in Pinballz haha. Awesome place, there just isnt the space in London for anything on that scale
I’d love to see turtles and Afterburner in there …… you’d never get me out! Or maybe Cadillacs and dinosaurs. X-men? Looks amazing though love the duck hunt painting
You guys made the most Heaven on earth thing I have ever seen! This looks so cool!!! I have tried to make my room into an arcade I got a sega Saturn and Dreamcast I got their arcade sticks fishing rod (used for sega bass fishing) The virtual on arcade stick a racing wheel for most of the racing games (sega rally championship Daytona USA!) BTW the Dreamcast is Japanese! I also tried to decorate my room with plush toys one of them is Cartman from South Park! Sesame Street characters Cookie Monster and Grover! And a few characters from this French cartoon called “Oggy and the cockroaches!” I really like the character design and I’m not sure if all of these plush toys fits the aesthetic of the arcades? Such an amazing video!

Thank you soooo much!❤️
Shes cute.
simp much? jk, i'm in love....with the arcade. Maybe one day I can visit when i'm in Florida.
maybe for you. not feeling it here. but hey. simping is bad.
Yeah right lol
$10 all you can play is such an amazing deal!
I would assume that that is somewhat subsidized by the alcohol, but still, that is a really good deal.
Yeah, bc a beer is $10....lol
yeah, let the kids play!
Fantastic "BarCade". Nostalgia and quality united at the same place at the same time. Greetings from Brazil.

I would be in there every day if I lived nearby.. what great selection of arcades and a bar to!! 😍
That would be $3,650 a year.

Growing up with arcades, I've never been to one this well set up! The locals there are super lucky to have you guys!
Love your BarCade! It’s one of the greatest hidden gems in Fortwalton Beach!
Thank you, Sam for keeping the retro arcade gaming scene alive. Looks like an amazing arcade. Better than any modern arcade that are just ticket game gambling halls for kids.
Great Arcade, Setup, Wall Artwork, Price and Blue Hair! P. S. Dragon's Lair would be a great addition! 🐲

All those nice Pinballs are worth the cheap $10 price. Best of luck to your amazing business.
Sam knows her stuff and I love the $10 all-u-can play
Damn, this barcade looks awesome! I wanna visit one day. 😍
Maybe you can make it to my convention one year, it’s called Really Rad Weekend!
@@RadJunkI’d love to. Maybe next year? 🤔
What an incredible selection of games!!! Rastan and Two crude dudes would fit perfectly amoungst them.
Best of luck with the business
You guys and girls give me hope, your places rock

We actually have some of those games in our warehouse!
This might be the best barcade I’ve ever seen! Best cabinets!
That glass mural reminded me of the arcade styles in GTA, great looking arcade and what a deal, hope your business grow further
Awesome Spot! I might be a little biased but that 4 Play is ❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥😁
It’s definitely rad!
gd those are some of the cleanest cabs i've ever seen, nice vid 👍🏽👍🏽
I had never heard of a place like this until last week when I went to the same thing in London, Ontario. Having a flat fee for all you can play and beer? Brilliant. Best idea ever. Probably.
Awesome arcade. Great selection of games and beer. Plus the interior design is great. 10 bucks and play as much as you want is fantastic 😊
The best comparison to Sound Voltex would actually be DJ Hero because the two knobs are similar to the turntable if I'm not mistaken.
That’s a great comparison!
You are awesome. Your bar is awesome. I wish I could give your business my money.

Thanks for the kind words! Stay rad!
That's looks Awesome, Best Retro Arcade games, AWESOME SAUCE!!! Thanks for the tour.😊😊😊😊😊
QUARTET IS MY JAM!!! Especially playing with 4 players! I’m definitely going to have to stop by! 😊
I'd be there all the time if i lived there. Last time i went to the arcades was in 1998. Where i live they disappeared entirely once internet cafes became a thing
The paintings are excellent. Good business idea with the beer and games complimenting each other
So glad I found this channel!! So Rad! If I ever go to Florida, I'm stopping into the barcade for sure!!!
THIS is a true love of the medium. Absolutely amazing place!
Hell yeah dual linked ID3! I still have my racer cards from back in the day, even have the racer aura on one! Great collection you have!
Seeing Gauntlet brought back halcyon memories from childhood!
Wow this is a rad bar for sure! Love all the arcades and pinball machines! I was looking for Killer Instinct that was my favorite arcade growing up. I also love the mural on the walls that what makes the place pop!
Awesome place, wish it was closer to me.... Great selection of games!
She doesn't need my validation but I love the person doing the intros. Such a great positive and encouraging energy. (Not an American here)
Awesome! Love the mood/vibe in there
Awesome bar, such a great selection of games, plenty of classics.

Beautiful Place. I will check this out if I'm ever in Florida.
Great tour, took me back to 1983 going down to the local arcade
I have added this location to the Aurcade database. Thank you so much for the walkthrough.
So. Damn. Cool.
If I am ever in Florida, within like 150 miles, i would for sure come and spend all night.

Quick n crash! We pull it out every year for our convention.
Checked out the bar and store when I was visiting from Atlanta and loved them both. Hoping to come back soon again!
Heck yea!!! Now you need to come down for Really Rad Weekend. 😬
That's a sweet DK mural--sets the tone right at the start!

Looks like a really rad place! Nice work guys
Holy shit what an awesome arcade. 😮
Looks awesome and the beer selection looks amazing
The arcade looks fantastic ‼️ it's a couple of games in there and I haven't played before, I would love to spend the whole day playing everything
Always a good time at Rad Bar and Rad Junk, coming into town later this week.
Man, your shop is so damn cool.
Sick, beer and retro games sounds like heaven 😀
Very fun looking Arcade!
This is awesome! I want to visit this on vacation soon 💛
Ninja Gaiden and POW were some of my favorites growing up in the 80's
Camera man doesnt really want to look at everything she points at. Great tour, though. I really enjoy arcade bars
Yeah definitely a bit rough on the camera work but still an awesome tour nonetheless, looks like a great place to have some fun!
First time shooting with the new gimbal and the face tracking was fighting me the whole time!
Sorry about that, next time will be better!
Die Hard arcade is so memorable for some reason. I played it once as a kid and never forgot it. Also really like the wide selection of fighting games, that's pretty cool.
Black Tiger!!! Best 1.99 I ever spent on switch. Best arcade game imo. And Addams Family Pinball. The Mamuska!!! Great video!
oh no. "We opened in dec 2019" and I knew what was coming.. Glad you made it!
This is actually crazy and for 10 bucks? I wish we had something similiar here
really cool set up. Nice work.
Sweet bar, will have to check it out if I ever make it that way.
Threw down on some gauntlet last time we were in there with my daughter. We have so much fun every time we go. Can't wait to see yall again soon!
❤️
Where is that arcade bar located I can’t find any info on the location or maybe I missed it somewhere in the CZcams post
@andrewramirez5417 fort walton beach florida
Good to know Matt on Wii Sports reign of terror is still alive and thriving
our arcade place is called Pinballz in Austin, Texas. visiting these places always bring back happy childhood memories.
Pinballz was so nice they had to make it twice 😂
Im from London but I went to Austin for my honeymoon and I reckon we spent like half the days we were there in Pinballz haha. Awesome place, there just isnt the space in London for anything on that scale
@@draculaman Pinballz forsure is a cool place! Glad you enjoyed it!
Totally awesome! 😎
Holy smokes that place is awesome!
I wish I lived closer this place is awesome ❤
Very nice, it's a good selection of games.
That looks amazing! 👏
I’d love to see turtles and Afterburner in there …… you’d never get me out!
Or maybe Cadillacs and dinosaurs. X-men?
Looks amazing though love the duck hunt painting
That’s a great idea, this place is amazing.
Thanks for fixing the steering wheels on ID3, Joe. Even faster than I was before 😎 Now I just need to find someone who can beat me 😮💨
looks great id def make a visit if I lived closer
This place looks amazing!!!
🎮😯
So many memories from my days in arcades...
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 was my jam as a teenager. Awesome place!
The Rad Bar looks very RAD. Also T2 Arcade game 😍😍😍 childhood classic
Glad to see MvC2 is still there. Looking forward to the next Really Rad Weekend.
This is awesome id love to check this place out but live across the country xD
My favorite arcade game is Daytona USA. We had one in our local video library in the 90's!
Freeplay entry fees need to be the gold standard for successful arcade experiences in my opinion. This place looks absolutely amazing!
We agree!
I'm a viewer from Germany. I miss arcades like yours in my country!
Pretty awsome I'm in florida near the tampa area I need to come vist u all great ideal with game store arcade and bar.
Sam, you're as rad as the Rad Bar, and the Rad Bar is pretty damn rad!
I feel like a place like this would be huge in Destin. I'm def going to stop by next time I'm in FWB.
You guys made the most Heaven on earth thing I have ever seen!
This looks so cool!!!
I have tried to make my room into an arcade I got a sega Saturn and Dreamcast I got their arcade sticks fishing rod (used for sega bass fishing)
The virtual on arcade stick a racing wheel for most of the racing games (sega rally championship Daytona USA!)
BTW the Dreamcast is Japanese!
I also tried to decorate my room with plush toys one of them is Cartman from South Park!
Sesame Street characters Cookie Monster and Grover!
And a few characters from this French cartoon called “Oggy and the cockroaches!” I really like the character design and I’m not sure if all of these plush toys fits the aesthetic of the arcades?
Such an amazing video!
This place looks amazing.
Best bar in Florida! Also, what a lovely wig!
My favorite place in the world!!!
Might have to make the uh...11ish hour drive down just to get some time on the T2 arcade machine. Definitely a favorite
Why is this better than the arcade bar we have in Tallahassee? Looks awesome!
Awesome spot!
crazy im seeing this before i go to fort walton for the 4th
omg really, really like your arcade. GJ
