All the good games are in the garages of collectors throughout Wisconsin. :)

There's one arcade on the main tourist strip. Nothing exciting, a couple of pinballs in there though. Mostly redemption games.

You missed wisconsin dells by about 15 years, for sure. I remember there being a Mortal Kombat projected on the wall, friggin awesome. Now all of the good arcades are gone. Noah's Ark waterpark used to have some good games, a couple Donkey Kong and some other old stuff still in good shape. Once upon a time I remember Tommy Bartlett's Robot World having a decent gaming room section, but that has probably gone away. At one time there was a decent arcade on the ridge-road above Pirates Cove minigolf, the place was branded as pirate's cove as well, so you may try some of the golf/go kart places. Or some of the major resorts. Happy Hunting!

Tommy Bartlett still has some interesting motion-capture games.

Right on..I was there when they called that 'virtual reality'..boy was I disappointed! The only decent arcade I know of is at JJ's Laundromat in Appleton, which just happens to be down the street from me. Go figure..
