Whether you were a pinball wizard or your town's own King of Donkey Kong — or you're just of an age in which coin-operated machines seem like fascinating relics of a pre-home-entertainment system era — you'll want to make the trek down to Santa Clara for a piece of classic arcade-gaming heaven. For a flat fee, you can play hundreds of vintage video games, pinball machines, and other coin-op novelties without dipping into your laundry money. Culled from the private collections of arcade enthusiasts, California Extreme offers a kid-in-a-candy-store opportunity to see how high you can score on anything from Space Invaders to K.I.S.S.: The Game.
