About 1984
1984 Arcade in its basic form is a classic 1980s Style Arcade. Here at 1984 we feature games from the 80's as well as a few from the 70's and 90's if they "fit". As you enter 1984 you pay five dollars at the door and then you can play all the video games you want. *We do offer Pinball for 25 cent per play. The games we offer are difficult to find and we are really more then just an arcade - it's a classic gaming museum featuring arcade machines that are just not available to the public anymore. We are especially proud of our collection of Vector games like Asteroids, Deluxe Asteroids, Gravitar, Tempest and BattleZone! You will find almost all the classics here including Space Invaders, Ms. Pac Man, Centipede and many more. We have about 50 games and we rotate new games in almost weekly. Of course we offer private parties and an 80's vibe, complete with music videos from ABC to ZZTop... Its all here at 1984.

World Record Set At 1984! |

On September 9th, 2009 Mark Kiehl stepped into history. Since 1982 at the age of 11 Mark has been playing Donkey Kong Junior. As a teen ager he had plenty of opportunity to play and work on his skills and was able to push his score up around 250,000. But after his local arcade sent the Donkey Kong Junior machine away it was a rare opportunity for him to be able to play the game again after that. Years later Mark began playing again using MAME on his home computer to simulate his favorite game. And, after learning about 1984 Aracade he started to visit us in person to play, practice and begin a string of record setting attempts. Now we are proud to announce that Mark Kiehl is the Official World Record holder of the highest score ever set on on Donkey Kong Junior. His score of 1,147,800 goes into the record books of Twin Galaxies Arcade (the official score keeper for world records). The score he beats was just set earlier this year by Steve Wiebe who became famous for his back and fourth battle for the world record for Donkey Kong in the film "Fist Full Of Quarters". The high score set by Billy Mitchell in 1983 help up through 2008 when it was eclipsed by Ike Hall. The owners at 1984 are very proud to have a world record set at our location, but we are very happy that it was Mark that did it.

 When we opened 1984 it was obvious that we were going to have to make certain choices about which games we included in our roster. That the games were all classic arcade machines and pinballs was an obvious decision, but we had to exclude certain really fun things like skeeball because we just don't have enough space. |
