Arcades birthed gaming culture, laid the groundwork for a multi-billion dollar industry, and continue to bring joy to millions of people. Unfortunately, our memory of many neighborhood arcades is fractured and fading. Atlas Arcadia was established to preserve arcade history before it’s too late. 

An archive of arcades’ past, Atlas Arcadia’s mission is to preserve and document the historical record of arcade venues and artifacts, establishing a credible resource for enthusiasts, collectors, and historians. By building a community empowered with online tools, we catalog arcade locations, tokens, and collective memory before it’s too late. Join us in our quest to create the world’s most comprehensive collection of arcade history. For as long as we remember, the legacy of the arcade lives on!
