I hope this counts, if not I can remove it. This is a game token from an arcade that used to exist at my local mall when I was a kid! It was my favorite place in the mall!

God I miss that feeling of going into an arcade when I was like 15 years old. Just that feeling of wonderment and escape. No cares, no responsibilities, nothing hurt ๐, the excitement of getting to level you hadnโt seen, all of it.
Granted this was like 40 years ago and the games are a lot better now and Iโm playing on a giant TV in my own bonus room but I truly miss those times. Especially the not hurting part ๐
The first thing I thought when I found that token was "everything used to be so much easier" lol
I'm afraid it's just another unfortunate consequence of becoming middle aged ๐ฐ
