      Makes me want to visit Budapest! I live in Ottawa, Canada and we have The House of Targ, which has about 20 pinball machines:

      House of TARG is a perogi restaurant in Ottawa Canada.


      I went to the Pinball Hall of Fame in Las Vagas once but it would be great to check out the Budapest location. What other attractions are in Budapest?

        Wow. One day if i go to Ottawa i need to see that. The only decent place in Montreal we got is North Star Pinball.

        Finally, Pinball, Beer and Cocktails, together again on Boulevard St. Laurent in Montréal. Lovingly maintained pinball games from the 1960's to today. Montréal's first barcade, Pinball Arcade, and bar.

          I live very close to The Arcade Club in Bury, Manchester UK http://www.arcadeclub.co.uk. It is Europes largest collection of free to play arcade games and pinball tables. I have yet to visit but my daughter went there last week and said I would love it.

              The city has a lot of beautiful architecture to look at, an abundance of thermal baths, the center is very lively with hundreds of bars and restaurants. Also, the Zen Office lol

                    Very cool! Coincidentally, after watching your museum video, I started getting Budapest travels vids in my YT feed. This food vid was one of them:



                    I watch a lot of the Rick Steves European travel series, will have to give this one a viewing again. What do you think of his recommendations?

                      He does all the 'musts', the market is really cool indeed, and all the landmarks he mentions are pretty sweet. Although towards the end, the statue park is really incredible. Basically all the soviet statues (and there was a lot) were hauled in to this one lot so they wouldn't be displayed after their influence was no more in the country.

                        If you're ever in Rochester, NY, check out The Strong National Museum of Play.

                        2 of the exhibit halls that seem to be permanent at this point, are the video game area, and the pinball area. 4 dozen classic arcade machines, and several dozen Stern pinball machines are currently out. I know at one time, the Pinball area also included Pinball FX2 running in a cabinet.

                        Other areas of interest for gamers include the World Video Game Hall of Fame.

                        This is family friendly place, so expect a lot of kids. But it's nice to be able to go in and play arcade Joust or the sit down Star Wars once in a while. :-)

                          Yes, they are permanent exhibits.

                          Fun Fact: The Strong National Museum of Play is the only museum in the world that is achieving video game concept blueprints. Most of them have been lost over time, but they have received a few directly from Sega and Nintendo.
