FYI, if you are taking a pilgrimage there from the Northeast you should stop in Rochester, NY along the way, the children's museum there has a permanent Pinball exhibit
It is very much a children's museum, so there will be a lot of kids there. They have actual museum displays also with a lot of gaming history and old toys.
If you are a group of adults you might be able to do all the interesting stuff in a few hours. But if there are any kids at all in your group you should spend the whole day. As fun as playing the old video games was, I got a bigger kick out of watching my kids play them

What the hell do the Dune characters have to do with "HORROR"? I love it.

4 1/2 hours were lost and didn't wanna leave. They have beer holders on some of the games too.
