The MLB All-Star game returned to Seattle for only the second time (first time in 2001). I took the family to the fan fest, and while on our way to the stadium, we passed through Pioneer Square area which is adjacent to the stadium. In the middle of the square, there was an arcade set up, and it was free to play. We stopped and spent a bit of time playing the various games.
Check out my score on Missile Command. Is that a decent score? The shooting reticle (x) was slow to move so it got difficult in later stages. That Asteroids was hard! I couldn't even crack 10k. The joystick on Burger Time was horrible. My wife and kids had fun with Galaga.

That looks like a ton of fun!
PS - that joystick on Burgertime wasn't broken. That's how the game is! I noticed it during the Burgertime challenge here on atari.io...the controls suck on emulation too.
That mini Missile Command cabinet is one of my favorite things. I have never owned an arcade machine. But if that mini-cab MC ever game up for sale to me, I'd buy it. The mini Asteroids too. I remember those mini-cabs from back in the 80's and they felt much more comfortable to me...probably because I was smaller and they "fit" better.
