Japan Arcade is located on the second story of the Little Tokyo mall at 3rd and Alameda and is open until 10pm during the week and 11pm on weekends. The only problem is that the mall is locked from the bottom at approximately 8pm, so it took us a couple of minutes to realize that we could walk through the parking structure to the upstairs area and get in up there.

Anyway, the arcade is not big, but they have a great selection of fun games and "what in the world?" games. Most of them are imports from Japan, and some cannot be found anywhere else in the Los Angeles area. On top of that, prices are fairly cheap (50 cents to a dollar). Plus the games all last for a long time. I'm glad we found this place!

• Pros: Inexpensive, Fun!
• Cons: Hard to find
