surely not,is it really closing,you can't get to play the retro arcade games anymore in cabinets,this was great fun,Gorf,defender etc,I hear NBA attraction going there,
You are not missing much. The old machines were very poorly maintained and I could not find a single one without a major issue (dead, stick, buttons, screens with a dropped colors, etc) on my last trip. The rest of the place was left almost as is since the day it opened which is a very bad thing for a place based largely around video games.surely not,is it really closing,you can't get to play the retro arcade games anymore in cabinets,this was great fun,Gorf,defender etc,I hear NBA attraction going there,
Fair comment,shame though as it really was the last place I played gorf,remember eating the pizza with my young son of 10yrs,he loved it,but I do agree that the 3d style games looked pretty crappy esp the raft ride if you remember it.ta for replyYou are not missing much.

I love video games but with much rather see the place burn to the grown than continue like it is.

Now you sound like my son who is now 17, thanks for replyGet an emulator and do it at home for free. You can even buy a cabinet if you really want to. Spend your time at Disney doing something else.
They were all fun, but I had a special fondness for the Pirates ride. Sure, you kids with your VR and your Oculus can play all kinds of snazzy games, but can you stand on the deck of a pirate ship and shoot cannons at ghost pirate ships coming at you from all sides?? Only at DisneyQuest.Only real loss of Disney Quest's closure is the virtual rides.

My last visit in October was a bit sad. The virtual games were all there, and there was a line for them (!) but so many classic arcade games were down for maintenance, the food stand was closed, and even the Genie wasn't in the elevators anymore.
The pinball machines especially....You are not missing much.

The ever so popular NBA experience will replace it. Something else for me to avoid.

No doubt that it was once a great place. For all the things the Mouse is good at, maintaining attractions that need regular updates is not one of them.Fair comment,shame though as it really was the last place I played gorf,remember eating the pizza with my young son of 10yrs,he loved it,but I do agree that the 3d style games looked pretty crappy esp the raft ride if you remember it.ta for reply
Got to Dave and Buster's on I drive. The food and the games are much better.We have never been; however, we were thinking of going with our kids this June. Is it even worth it or should we just spend the time enjoying Disney Springs instead? Is two hours enough time to see it?
I didn't know there was one down there. We love D&B but the closest one to us is 1.5 hours away.Got to Dave and Buster's on I drive. The food and the games are much better.
