Arcade Games

I went to Dave and Buster's in the mall the other day with my friends. It just opened a month or two ago. It's a very large arcade/sports bar. It's just like any other arcade. You buy coins or credits to play arcade games, you play the games and collect tickets, then you redeem your tickets for lame toys. I'm not a fan of wasting money to play games to try to win some toy that will break in five minutes. I know, I know people think going to the casino as much as I do is a waste of money and at least I could get something by playing arcade games. Going to the casino is normally a waste of money. However, I could also walk home with more money than I started with. With arcade games, you are losing money and paying more for a toy you can get for much cheaper somewhere else. Everyone has their own opinions about arcade games and casinos though. One prize they had was the PS4. You had to get 105,000 tickets to get that. I bet it will take well over the $500 or so it would cost you for a PS4 to earn 105,000 tickets at the arcade. Kids don't think about that when they play. Parents just give them money so they can have fun. I understand that. It's the price of entertainment. It's just not my idea of a good way to spend money. I know, it's ironic that I'd rather blow it in a casino. I get it. That's just one man's opinion.
