Zap Video Arcade was a prominent entertainment venue located in Ames, Iowa, active from the early to mid-1980s. It served as a popular destination for arcade enthusiasts, existing alongside other local arcades such as Dark Star and Aladdin’s Castle. Like many arcades of its time, Zap Video Arcade ceased operations as the industry evolved and home gaming consoles became more prevalent. The venue likely closed its doors sometime in the 1990s, marking its place in Ames’s recreational history during the golden age of video arcades.
