Oh yes. Yes, and when I was in college, our commons areas still had three of them. Centipede, Donkey Kong, and Pac Man.

I almost never go into arcades any more, because I can rarely find anything worth playing that appeals to me. The fighting games were fun for a while, but that genre has grown stale IMHO. The first time I saw Mortal Kombat, I thought, "whoa, cool!" Now, I say, "Not another sequel. Bah." Don't get me started.
