pinheadnoobboy808 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Hi, I'm located around the Buford area, never been to Reply Arcade but heard it's a pretty good time. Those you listed are the only places I know of. However, try checking Stern website for table locations close to where you will be staying. My immediate area has Ghostbusters and an Indiana Jones, both at different bars. In case you happen to be back in the area in August, there is a game expo with a couple hundred tables mixed with both pinball and arcade cabinets. Southern Fried Gaming Expo, it's a lot of fun. https://gameatl.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WED21 Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) Make the trip to Portal Pinball in Kennesaw. Very much worth the ride. Replay is inside the Mall of Georgia and it is honestly not very good. Extremely bright lights and only a handful of pins. I also think he was closing down last weekend. I LOVE My Parents Basement!!! It was a lot cooler before the Covid mess and they had really good weekly pin tournaments but still a great place to go. ***Also, that No Fear at Replay had EOS problems when I played it 2 weeks ago......

goodtwist Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 This is too late, but if you ever come back there is a cool Bed and Breakfast just outside of Atlanta called the "Oasis Arcade." The owner has quite a few pinball machines and arcade games on free play. He is super nice. It seems like he's always rotating tables. You might find a list on his site. https://www.hostzaver.com/tiny_house_huge_arcade_just_miles_t_e331 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'm years late, but in case you are ever back in the Atlanta area: Portal Pinball. I'm not sure if it was here the last time you visited. It's in Acworth, which is "metro Atlanta", so it might be a 30-40 minute drive depending on where you tend to stay, but it's a great joint. They rotate their machines on a regular basis and have EMs up to current. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
