Ready Player One! Our corner arcade returns for Retro Con 2025!

This year our arcade will be sponsored by The Very Best restaurant in Pottstown PA, who will also be bringing in their own arcade cabinets and setting them to FREE PLAY! All their machines use real boards/hardware, but many also include a highscore feature that will keep a saved score even after power-off. So if you set a high score at the show, it will remain on the machine even after it’s been returned to their restaurant! Retro Con staffer Tony will be sad if you beat his Pac-Man score though…

If you live in the area, make a trip to Pottstown and stop by The Very Best for lunch! Established in 1921 and recently featured on Channel 6 Action News, Josh and his staff are super-friendly, the place has an awesome retro atmosphere, the food is delicious, and it’s affordably priced. Menu highlights include burgers, steaks, hoagies, sandwiches, fries, shakes, and of course their signature hot dogs (plain, chili, kraut, Texas Tommys, and more). And to top it all off… the place has a full pay-to-play arcade right in the back!

A huge THANK YOU to them for sponsoring the arcade this year! Check out their website and full menu here:
