The other night I found myself at Mediamatic Bank, the very cool exhibition space were the famous multimedia artists are always doing something out of the ordinary.

Their current feature consists of classic arcade games from the 70's, 80's, and 90's.. and whether you're old enough or not to remember arcade games, you will have a great time playing to your heart's content. Centipede from 1980, Mortal Combat from 1991, or NBA Jam from 1993, those were the three I was pleased to play once again. As a kid growing up in New Jersey, those were some loved games at the local arcades. Who new all these years later, in Amsterdam, I'd be overjoyed at the chance to play them again.

But don't just judge my favorites, go to Mediamatic and check out not only the classic games but some really obscure designed games that in the end, are as much art as they are fun.

Here's a video sample:

(during they week they're open from 1pm until 7pm, on weekends opened til 6pm.)
