When I was a kid my family always went to Shakey's Pizza in San Jose, California. I loved going there but not for the pizza. For the video games they had in the back. They didn't have many, but I always headed back there to play Asteroids or Missile Command. Besides Chuck E. Cheese, there weren't too many pizza parlors that had arcades, and today they're practically non-existent. Unless you happen to live in Omaha, NE. Check out this cool Arcade Spotlight!
