I have been working with Area Amusements for four years now and have nothing but 'perfect' things to say about all the interactions I have experience with them! When I was able to start a home gameroom, I was lucky to have found them as they began my collection with two machines: 1. an upright "Multicade" video game that has over 50 of my favorite 1980's games; 2. a late 1970's pinball machine.

Not only did Mark fix the game, but also showed me how to change settings and lighting. Great,...
Read moreMark, Scott and Anita are the real deal! From the start Anita was so very helpful and knowledgeable being the first point of contact. From there Mark listened to all my concerns and took them into consideration upon delivery of both a 35 year Pin and a 25 year old arcade which they fixed them both. Upon delivery Mark was there to greet both my son and I with exceptional service. I thought Mark was the tech at the time but come to find put he was the owner also working on customers machines. A++ service all the way around. I'll be back with a new machine for...
