I was going over the local arcade list updating it with the demise of Japan Arcade.
Sadly, Video West Arcade near the Americana is also dead. It died a while ago, possibly as early as 2010 to make room for the Museum of Neon Art, which is still not open. There's a great story about how the arcade machines are in the hands of the City of Glendale as they can't be sold due to California state law and huge problems our government has had. Vintage Arcade Superstore, located in the same city wants to buy the arcade units, but can't until our state government comes to a conclusion over certain laws and whats owed.

I've updated the local arcade list, which can be found on the right of the site at any time.
