Arcade Collecting Indianapolis Page
A short note, I created a new Arcade Game Collecting in Indianapolis page for individuals and collectors looking to sell, buy, or collect arcade games. I want this classic video game collecting page to be as useful as possible, so please contact me with any suggestions about history of gaming in Indianapolis or other arcade game resources. Add a comment or email me if you have any that you think should be added to this list.
Filed under “About”, you can find the link permanently mentioned in the first couple of paragraphs.
