I have a few questions.

I am currently moving to california. Around the 20th of May.

I was curious how far is Arcade Infinity from Chino Hills in Pomona? or Pomona in general?


What is the arcades hours of operation?
Is the place clean or is it ghetto?
Does this Arcade-Infinity location also still sell cabinets? Perferably Candy Cabinets ?
How about boards like NAOMI CVS2 and MVC2?

Thank You for the help. I greatly appreciate it.

It really isn't too far from Pomona, maybe 30 - 45 mins drive on the freeway. They are in Industry which is actually close to Pomona... Maybe even closer then 30 mins, as I have never really gone from one to the other.

As for them... hmmm, Ghetto is a good word for it. There is no arcade, just a warehouse with tons of machines stacked... most in dire condition. They don't sell game boards, so... You won't be buying any MVS/CPS/Naomi stuff there, but they do still have tons of Candy cabs. I am sure they could get a Neo Geo in for you if you want, but you will end up paying a lot more for it... I would just use MDGameSales for that.

Locally, there are places, but they charge way to much. I would get a cab local, that is the most expensive thing to ship... then get the boards from either a US seller or a HK seller such as Cosmic Company. Seriously, Eldorado charges at the Neo Geo MVS price guide, which is way to high... CA Robinson is really only into new stuff and has way high prices. As for other places within an hour, not many I know off the top of my head.

I think people have this idea that Arcade stuff is just laying in the gutters here in LA... it is easier to find here, sure, but it is really still better to get it through the mail... much better deals to be had.
