2006-07-15 | P Bee | Pete's is one of the best arcades in Michigan. They have all sorts of classics and pinball machines. They have tournaments for those games as well. They have a huge selection of music games like Dance Dance Revolution, Guitar Freaks, Drummania and Para Para Paradise. They have air hockey tables, skill intensive games that spit out tickets and lots of driving games. The assortment of fighting games will make any fan happy, with Marvel vs. SNK, Street Fighter 3rd Strike, Soul Caliber 2 and Tekken 5. There are 4 or 5 pool tables to shoot at and this is all in the heart of downtown Ann Arbor, where many other attractions reside. One of the best places to hang out at night in Michigan. Just bring money. |

2003-08-22 | Pico The Revolver | Billy, what is your problem? Look at the big picture: Arcades are a business. Business' are there to make money. Classic games, although fun, at one-quarter for a long play turn, don't make a lot of money. Besides, if you don't like those "non-english games", you should at least say why instead of the reason of "it's not in English". Pinball petes has plenty of classic games, lots of imports, and is pretty up-to-date on the new games. Great place, and the fans on the Dance Dance Revolution machines are very much appreciated. |
2003-01-12 | Graboid | This used to be one of the most crowded arcades I have been to, but recently it has slowed down a bit. It has Tron, and that is all I care about! The non-smoking move is a plus since I have allergic reactions to nicotine (or one of the other thousands of substances in cigarettes). They also have some classic pinball machines such as Creature from the Black Lagoon. |
2002-08-05 | Nick DeMeo | Iwas wondering if I could recieve any information or a map on how to get to pinball petes in ann arbor michigan thank you |
2002-07-19 | moob2001 | some of the change machines do not always accept the new style dollar bills |
2002-06-12 | dcden | I went to the arcade in early April and loved it. I went on a Friday afternoon and it was not crowded at all. I spent about $5 on the classic games. The other games mentioned did not bother me. Sure, it may not be a "true" classic arcade, but given that the classic arcade games are so hard to find these days, I didn't really care! |
2002-05-27 | Richard M. | [Edited...] Billy, it's too bad the 1980's couldn't last forever. But welcome to the new reality known as "2002". As long as Dance Dance Revolution (or as I like to call the game, "Loudmouth") makes money for the arcades, we'll just have to grin and bear it. I -would- patronize the arcade and -let- the owner know that the classics are very much appreciated! If he thinks the classics are profitable to keep, he'll keep them. Oh and one last thing ... many of us, myself included, do not smoke and would prefer not having to deal with second-hand smoke. |
2002-05-26 | MELLIE` | [edited] ...all the old games are located towards the back where the Air Hockey Tables and Mr. and Ms. Pac man machines are.

2002-05-17 | Billy | Pete's is crappy arcade. It's now aimed at little kids and families even though this has NEVER been the owners intentions. A "new guy" who will remain nameless has ruined the Pete's name. Do NOT patronize this arcade, it's not worth the money. There are a small handful of old games left, they got rid of most of them to make room for fluffy animals, picnic tables, big stupid neon signs, and LOTS of those lovely non-english games like Dance Dance revolution. This is NOT a classic arcade anymore. There is hardly anyone there anymore (it used to be THE place on a friday night), and the owners are loosing BIG time bucks due to other problems (building owners told them to make the arcade non-smoking or they would evict them, this a problem all over the city too). |
2002-01-29 | the real erik | PIn ball petes is my favorite, I would live there is I could. |
2002-01-29 | Mike Vincent | This is the best arcade in USA if you like Japanese imports or music game or like the newest and best this is the place to be! |
2001-11-09 | smblion | If you can deal with the terribly rude employees, it's a blast |
2001-03-20 | Erik | Gaplus/Galaga 3 is available, though it hasn't worked for the past couple of weeks. Ms. Pac-Man has alternate mazes. |
2001-02-14 | ROCCO MARRAS | PINBALL PETE'S HAS A 2nd LOCAL IN EAST LANSING RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM MSU IT ALSO HAS ALOT OF CLASSICS |
2000-11-12 | Keith K Smith (Flat Rock, MI) | Pac-Man Plus not working as of 11-05-00. Ms. Pac-Man machine actually a disguise for "Ms. Pac-Man Plus" board configuration, and board shape changes every 2 screens on this particular machine. |
