It's the sort of thing every small business owner has nightmares about. Walking in one morning, only to find that your store is flooded with water damage. That's exactly what happened to Marcade at the Rockaway Townsquare mall last week. They shut down immediately to clean up and repair, and things were looking incredibly dicey. But by some sort of miracle, they managed to reopen just four days later, and honestly? You'd never know from looking at the arcade. We've got a lot of love for Marcade around here; they were one of the first few places we visited when starting to film arcade tours, and they're still one of our favorite spots to play classic retro games and pinball in northern New Jersey. Come take a walkthrough the newly reopened Marcade with us, and if you're in the Northeast US, make sure you stay tuned all the way to the end of the video for a chance to win an all-day pass!
