Chinatown Fair, Gaming arcade in Chinatown, Manhattan, US
Chinatown Fair occupies the first floor of a building at 8 Mott Street, featuring numerous arcade games and entertainment machines for all ages.
The establishment started as a penny arcade and small museum in 1944 before evolving into a video game center during the 1970s gaming revolution.
The arcade became a central hub for competitive fighting game players, hosting tournaments and attracting professional gamers from across the region.
Visitors can enjoy gaming daily from 11 AM to 11 PM on weekdays, with extended hours until 2 AM on Fridays and Saturdays.
