Gerard and I were thinking about checking out Tokyo Game Action, it's in Winchendon, Mass so it might not be in Conneticut but I don't think it's that far of a drive from what he told me.
The place is pretty much a Japanese arcade but in America. They focus on music and fighting games and have a classic game or two. I like it that they have their games in "Candy" cabs, so you can sit down and have a whole screen to yourslef instead of being scrunched next to somebody else.
Their site is www.tokyogameaction.com
If we do go up there, it might be in mid August, so if anybody would like to make this into a trip, let us know.
