barcades are a great option if there's one nearby. "Hey, want to play?" is so much easier than trying to start a conversation unprompted

Wow, is this a thing? Never heard about it. I would like love to see play some old arcades in a bar

It's definitely a thing in the US and I imagine a lot of other places. Even smaller cities will usually have at least one. Some aren't going to have actual arcade cabinets (or not many of them), but will have consoles/emulators set up
