Rick, I downloaded then reuploaded the images properly (four were sideways) rotated because I am fussy like that . ;)

I love that these are becoming a thing now.   When we do Retropalooza in Arlington, I'll be visiting their new Free Play location.

Looks to be a killer retrocade, lots of beers, and tasty pub foods. :)

Thanks! Much better

 

On my PC, they were right side up, but posted sideways. Did you have to do something other than a rotate?

 

You are quite welcome! I wondered if there was a way I could rotate them in place but if there is I have no idea, so I downloaded the sideways ones to my desktop, they appeared sideways even in the thumbnail, I just opened MSoffice Picture Manager, rotated to upright position and saved over original. After that the thumbnails also appeared upright. 

 

I know images can be weird, I have a program that allows me to right click on the thumbnail of an image and choose to rotate left or right, they always look fine according to the thumbnail after that but when actually opening to view they are not always corrected lol. Honestly, I get nervous editing the structure of anyone's post so I was totally prepared to hit CANCEL if I could not correct them lol.

Quarterworld looks like the place to go in Portland. How does it compare to other arcades in the area?

The king of arcades here is called Ground Kontrol, which just expanded in size.  Ground Kontrol has a lot more games, but it's downtown and harder to get to and find parking.  In any case, you can't go wrong with either.  These are both REAL arcades without the kids gambling/ticket games.
