Welcome back Xennials! Today on The Happy Xen Podcast, we hit the arcade and count down our top 5 favourite arcade games. Joining us on this trip into gaming past is the founder of Deadly Grounds Coffee Canada, and 8-Bit Beans Coffee, friend of the show Brad Mavin! We not only count down our favourite arcade cabinets, but also talk about what makes a great arcade experience, the rise of Arcade 1Up and emulators, gaming documentaries, and much more.
