One of the largest and most popular arcades along the Wildwood boardwalk, the Mariner's Arcade is so named for its central location at the entrance to Mariner's Pier. While the arcade has been around for years, they recently completed a major renovation, completely replacing the carpet for one, but also entirely switching over from cash and paper tickets to a 100% game card system. (Well, maybe 95%... there are still a handful of actual quarter-dropping coin pushers that don't have cards, and spit out paper tickets, but that's a rarity.) While most of the machines from last year's season are still there, there are a few new arrivals, almost all of which are located along the glass wall of the arcade bordering Mariner's Pier. They've added Dinosaur Era, the popular water-shooting game, as well as a trio of new coin pushers in Cosmic Tower, Dragon's Bane, and Spider-Man. Last year's Avengers themed games appear to have been kicked to the wayside, as have the racing games Super Bikes and Asphalt. In fact, the only pure video game that's left in this location any more is Ms. Pac-Man, which is still thankfully just one quarter (or one credit, I guess) to play. Other than that, this location is almost entirely redemption games, claw machines, coin pushers, and converted video poker and slot machines. They have one of the best varieties of prizes available for ticket redemption, especially when it comes to rare sports collectibles. But it definitely feels more like a casino than an actual arcade these days. This isn't unique to Mariner's, not by a long shot, but it's definitely one of the biggest offenders... if not THE biggest. One video game. ONE.
