Never Trust a Trailer | |
| Arcade Paradise (Video Game) / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: The advertising implies that your father will constantly be a thorn in your side. The only reference to this is that, halfway through the game, no matter what you do, a scripted event sees you lose the arcade. Otherwise, he doesn't interfere at all, and you can take as long as you like. | |

Chekhov's Gun: While upgrading the arcade, one of your friends propositions you to invest in his video game company. Later on the investment pays off when the return saves your arcade from being auctioned off. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Arcade Paradise (Video Game) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: While the game is set in 1993, according to a poster, it is more of a mish-mash of typical 90s culture and technology and includes several things introduced a few years later, such as Windows 95 and the internet, as well as homages of DanceDanceRevolution (1998) and Mr. Driller (1999). | |

Minigame Game: Along with playing arcade games, the earlier parts of the game feature a lot of doing laundry, cleaning the laundromat, and picking up garbage, all of which are also done by playing a minigame. | |

Bland-Name Product | |
| Arcade Paradise (Video Game) / int_2b5ea43c | comment |
Bland-Name Product: The washers and dryers are of fictional brands such as Jackrabbit and Speedwagon. In addition, the computer runs an operating system very reminiscent of Windows 95. The trash items in the game are also based on the early 90s logos of actual food, snack, candy, and beverage products. | |

Later on however, he takes the laundromat away from you after he discovers that you (or rather Lesley, who you decide to take the blame for) paid bribes for business permits, suspects that you are lying to him about other things, and auctions off the entire business. You're then sent to work packing boxes for his meat factory as his way of teaching you about the "real world", while Flashback voices reveal that you're The Un Favourite of the family, with your father disapproving of your college degree and other life choices. | |

Retraux: The game is set in the mid 90s, 1993 specifically accord to a poster. This not only has you using a mid 90s computer and accessing the Internet via dial-up to access primitive and simple websites, but also has you playing arcade games that, at newest-quality, hail from the 32-bit era. | |

Abusive Parents: Your father Gerald isn't very fond of the idea of you dropping out of college, and later abandoning the laundromat business for an arcade. He calls regularly during the game's campaign to berate your changes, but isn't afraid to give advice on how to run the business better. Later on however, he takes the laundromat away from you after he discovers that you (or rather Lesley, who you decide to take the blame for) paid bribes for business permits, suspects that you are lying to him about other things, and auctions off the entire business. You're then sent to work packing boxes for his meat factory as his way of teaching you about the "real world", while Flashback voices reveal that you're The Un Favourite of the family, with your father disapproving of your college degree and other life choices. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Arcade Paradise (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Communists from Mars is one to Communist Mutants from Space, but plays more like Missile Command. The DLC game Empathy is based on the empathy boxes from Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? Fury, one of the player characters in Knuckles & Knees, is pretty much a clone of Terry Bogard, complete with red-and-white baseball cap. | |

An Entrepreneur Is You: As new owner of the laundromat, you must make all of the business's money and pay its bills. In addition, as you shift the business more towards being an arcade, you also need to keep a steady base of customers. With that said, there is no real penalty for neglecting the laundry duties. | |

Cool Big Sis: Your sister Lesley is very supportive of your endeavor and is the one who came up with the idea of converting the laundromat into an arcade. She works for the local council which provides you easy access to business permits, and confesses that despite being the white sheep of the family, she ended up giving up her dreams for a respectable career.. Later on, when she reveals to you that she actually got caught bribing for permits without your knowledge, your character Ashley decides to take the blame rather than risk your father finding out. | |

Riches to Rags: Halfway through the game, you receive an ominous text message from your sister Lesley that she forgot to pay the operating fees, and soon after, your father gives you an angry phone call about it. He decides that you're lying to him behind his back and auctions off the arcade you've spent so much time and energy building, and you are forced to find a job packing boxes at a local factory. It does get better though. | |
