Since no one neither made a thread like that, I've decided to make one myself.

DDR Extreme arcade is still in Gamers N Geeks, and it would be great if they had more DDR and Pump it Up arcades.

Mobile doesn't have any arcade amusements with a sports bar. The closest Dave and Buster's locations are in New Orleans, Panama City, and Birmingham. Round 1 is in the southeastern Atlanta suburb which is only 5 hours away and the closest.

If you really want a true arcade with some rhythm game arcades, then join this Facebook group and share. https://www.facebook.com/BringArcadetoMobileAL/

There is also a petition to bring Dave and Buster's to Mobile. https://www.thepetitionsite.com/758/928/454/bring-dave-and-busters-to-mobile/

There is also another petition to convince Round 1 to bring a location to Bel Air Mall and renovate the old Parisian/Belk space or the
larger vacant spaces in Spingdale. https://www.thepetitionsite.com/299/163/145/bring-round-1-entertainment-to-mobile-al/

I've recently added Mobile places and Eastern Shore Lanes on this site.

What are your thoughts? Will you like to have a Groove Coaster, DDR, and Pump it Up arcades to Mobile, Alabama?

I'm not from there but I live in Biloxi, MS. Not too far away. There used to be a DDR X cab in the mall here back in 2009 that got moved somewhere to a mall in Mobile supposedly once our mall arcade shut down. It's definitely a shame there isn't much in the way of rhythm gaming on the coast and in the South. I've been to the D&B in New Orleans a few times but it isn't worth it honestly. Half the time, the volume on PIU Prime 2 is insanely low. Margaritaville Resort in Biloxi is the place I go to the most, we have PIU Infinity. Have yet to visit Round 1 in ATL because for one thing, it's ATL. Lol. Plus the drive isn't something I wanna do spur of the moment. If Mobile ever got more rhythm games, I'd definitely visit because I've yet to actually step foot in Mobile and I've lived in Biloxi for a decade now. Maybe Kyle Ward wouldn't mind dropping a StepManiaX cab in Mobile if you contact him and tell him some locations in your area that have arcades. I have tried getting him in contact with Margaritaville Resort but so far, nothing's come out of it because the arcade there prefers to buy stupid ticket redemption games every chance they get.
If it ain't no natural law, then you can keep your regulations. 'Cause if I like it, I do it.

Since Gamers N Geeks moved to its new location on the same highway, sharing the space with the new console gaming arcade, I was told by the owner on Facebook that the DDR Extreme isn't re-installed. I am suspecting that there are no rythmn game arcades in Mobile at this moment.

Update: I've decided to changed the thread title to reflect the recently opened arcade inside Gamers N Geeks/Engage Gaming called "The Gred Retrocade", containing classic arcade games, racing games, and music.

Damn. That's a shame. I'm always looking for more rhythm games down here and pretty much all I have is PIU Infinity in Biloxi. I don't drive to New Orleans anymore for PIU XX and the two friends I used to have that both owned a SuperNOVA & ITG 2 cab no loner own them Sad I keep trying to convince Margaritaville Resort to snag a StepManiaX machine and even got Kyle Ward to contact them but so far...no dice. I just want to buy my own machine at this point but I have no idea where to look and wouldn't even have the money for one unless I could pay in installments. This blows.

Edit: I'd love to visit Round 1 but a 6 hour drive to Atlanta just isn't something I'm up for these days lol.

Seriously?! Gonna have to make a trip over there then! I've been occupying all my time with StepManiaX at home, it would be nice to finally be able to play SDVX and Jubeat! Thanks for the heads up, kokoroanime!

Before you play any game, you have to go to the check to pay 10 dollars for for all you can play wristband. It lasts until it closed at midnight.
