Arcade Prices?

[srobinet63]

I was wondering what the average price was for the arcade games. We will be on the Mardi Gras.

I'd say $1-2 on average. Sometimes more or less depending on the game. Watch your Fun Times for "power hours," games will be half off.

Thank you and I forgot I posted the same question last week. I’m sorry getting older and had a senior moment I guess .

they're expensive and take about 30 seconds to play most of them...people burn through tons of cash swiping the card

In that regard, make sure your kid's sign and sail card is set up so they can't use it to buy anything - or limits their spending to the limit you can live with  I have heard of kids blowing hundreds by swiping their S&S cards in the arcade.

I wanna say the majority of the games in the Warehouse Arcade on the Magic were $1.25 per play, or you could get 4 plays for $4.  (Sailed her a few weeks ago)

Hi @srobinet63🙂

 

Most of the games in the arcade on Mardi Gras are E-ticket Redemption Games (see below). 

 

I'll also put a (video walk-through tour) below of the arcade on Mardi Gras as well.

Power hours don't exist anymore.  They got rid of them, likely as a pandemic precaution with a hidden motive of cost cutting.  There were no power hours on the Valor 11/29/21, Valor 12/23/21, Freedom 1/15/22, Radiance 8/29/22, Valor 11/28/22, and Glory 2/5/23.

 

 

 

Skee-Ball is $1.50 per game or $4.50 for four games.

Well that stinks. We haven't been able to cruise since the shutdown, so I knew I'd discover some changes, but that wasn't one I would've expected. So more than likely cost cutting, especially given that crowds aren't a concern in other areas. I've never seen the arcades too terribly busy, even during power hours. Maybe on the last night or two when kids are burning through some remaining S&S funds. OK, who am I kidding, I do that too.

Thank you for all of the great info. I'm not sure he will be spending much time in there after reading through these.
