The veil between spirit, matter and man has always thinned in arcade parlors. Intelligent machines we have made to tickle our fancy, then interact with again and again, gradually possess some of our essence. Here, for the price of a Quarter, the ghosts come out to play with us humans.

    I lived in SF when the Musee Mecanique was located underneath the Cliff House. I used to take my son there every weekend. We came with pockets full of nickles and dimes....and we loved it This video brought back all those memories. I can't wait to see it all again. Watching the technicians work on the games is just so fascinating. It's all so charming.

    Thanks for doing a video about this place. Real charm, and the kind of place that deserves being cared for and kept up and running for folks!
