Can you describe what a "real" or "proper" arcade does feel like, if not a place with lots of arcade games?
Maybe one of these would fit your description: galloping ghost in IL, Asheville pinball museum in NC, Game Galaxy in TN.
A chain option I assume you can find lots of places depending on whether OP considers it a real arcade or a bar: Dave & Buster's

This place is awesome, beers, games, bar food.
Wait, you guys have arcades where you live?? There used to be a proper arcade in my city years ago but it shut down.
These days the closest we get are a couple of bars that have lots of arcade games. But it’s not the same. Because it feels like a bar, not an arcade, even though arcade machines are there.
Where can I move to that there are real arcades?
