Default good arcade places in SoCal?

Sup guys.

I'm sure most people know Arcade Infinity in Rowland Heights. I play Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 2 and Battle Gear 2/3 there. Just wondering if anyone knows any other good arcades?

Boomers and sometimes Nickel/Nickel have nice racing games like Initial D and Battle Gear, but the machines are usually beat up. I

'm just trying to find another place where I can find Wangan Midnight MT2, or other JDM Arcade games, not the usual ones in theme parks. Thanks!

I haven't been to Little Tokyo in a long time, but the arcades over there probably have what you are looking for. It is a drive though :P

Boomers has ID

good info everyone

Haven't been to SpeedZone in forever. But SpeedZone is like 2 min drive, from Arcade Infinity, makes me want to drop by AI

Little Tokyo is far!

DB is nice. Mostly USDM games but lots of them. Costs arm+leg to play.

Super Arcade by Mt.SAC, I think I've been there once like 4 years ago. I was playing Tekken, then someone started to fight for reals inside, I left.

AI still has Battle Gear. It's BG-3 there now. I used to play 2 alot with my friend. I think they sold their BG-2 machine to Nickel/Nickel in Cypress. I saw it there, all beat up.

Family Fun in Granada Hills. Probably too far for alot of you, but its probably the favorite place on the Westcoast for fighting games (especially Street Fighter/Capcom games)
