Classic, bar-arcade, retro: the three flavours

Classic arcades are all-ages and game-first. Bar-arcades mix drinks with cabinets and skew adult in the evenings. Retro venues curate the old cabinets lovingly and often run the best-maintained floors. All three count here, and the best arcade towns have all three.

Salaberry-de-Valleyfield sits about 45° north of the equator, so it gets proper seasons. Arcades are gloriously weatherproof, and winter is peak season: when it's dark at five, the neon looks its best and the floors are busiest.

Arcade smarts for Salaberry-de-Valleyfield

No mapped arcades yet, but the arcade skills work anywhere. Four worth knowing:

• Comfortable shoes. You'll stand for hours. This is not the outing for new boots.
• Ask staff for recommendations. Staff know which machines are new, which are broken, and which have the loosest tilt sensors. Ask.
• Pinball rewards regulars. Pinball tables have personalities and moods. Play the same table a few times and you'll start reading it.
• Check the retro corner. The old cabinets in the back are often the best-maintained — they're somebody's pride and joy.
