Top Comments of this video!! :3
was a kid/early teen in the '80's and i miss it so much, and more every year. I cannot describe the pure joy of living then. Maybe it is because i was a kid, but the excitement of taking the bus to the mall, eating soft pretzels in the food court, playing arcade boxes until we were out of money and waiting for the bus home with friends every weekend was like a magical time. My fondest desire is to fly back and have that experience one last time. Just to breathe the air of my childhood home, see my friends who are long gone, and feel like everything i dreamed the future would be could still come true.

Born in 1970. This is a major time warp. When I watched Stranger Things it was like they took my life experience. I'm from Indiana, lived near a spooky army facility, explored it illegally with friends on bikes and mopeds, played D&D, and the mall and arcades came in and put the small store owners in a panic. This music is part of that time stream. Moved and turned 16 living in Ft. Lauderdale. Ahhhh, memories. Thanks.

The arcade is called "SuperFun." It is in the Foothills Fashion Mall in Fort Collins, Colorado, in the part of the mall near Orange Julius and Zeezo's Magic Castle. SuperFun is well airconditioned, dimly lit, carpeted, clean, and well-maintained. It is the fall of 1981 and I am 14 years old. My best friend Jeff and I rode our bikes to the mall on Friday night. No helmets. No lights on our bikes even though we ride at night. We are there to play Battle Zone, Tron, Pac Man, Centipede, Tempest, Space Invaders, Defender, Galaga, Missile Command, and Asteroids.

I don't know about the rest of the world but here in France, 1980's fashion kinda started to grow back a bit since 1 or 2 years. People are wearing more colorful outfits, men are wearing more shorter shorts and some of them even tube socks. In a mall close by I even saw lots of flashy clothes in some stores and young people are coming out more often to play bowling and stuff. This makes me really happy since I'm a tennager and I never experienced the 1980's myself, so it kinds of give me a taste of what it was like.
ALSO THAT GIF IMAGE IS INCREDIBLE, I WANT IT

Kind of a shame that arcades are dying out these days. Nothing can replicate the immense joy that you get when seeing a ton of arcade cabinets all lined up next to each other. And the variety of games too. Driving games like "Outrun," Shooters like "T2: The Arcade Game," just any genre really. It makes me sad because kids of today don't have the chance to experience it.
