Missed this one, Janny. Guess you've got a problem with the discussion of adolescent sexuality - on 4chan. Incredible.

Anyway, the reason my perception of "80s arcades" vs "90s arcades" may be especially delineated is because in the 80s my mall arcade was a "Gold Mine" like pic related. It was simply lit by yellow faux gaslamps with false beams, piles of gold and a freaking mine cart combining with various cockpit cabs to creating all kinds of dark nooks and corners evidencing foul activities.

Maybe it just coincidentally crossed the filth threshold but in 1990 it closed and the same machines immediately materialized in a "Tilt" that was 3x the size, brightly lit plus neon and a wide open facade. Totally family friendly.

So yeah, to me there's a very big clear difference between an 80s arcade and a 90s one.

I pretty much grew up going to arcades. There was the same arcade in the mall from the 80s to the early 00s although way back in the day it had this awesome Gold Mine decor with fake gas lamps, timber beams, gold ore, pickaxes, miners hats etc.
