Gotcha Gachapon

Only $ 10 to play! All the games I love to play at the animé conventions in one place. Can play the drums all day :)

This place is awesome unlimited games for $ 10 all day. Including Japanese arcade games they have all systems new and old, card games and board games. I loved it.

I don’t live in Ohio but I will be soon I have to say the only thing I enjoy about this place is the animé figures and such.
The game room is a waste of money 5 $ for an hour?
But 10 $ all day? I did it for the hour but honestly the games barley work or don’t start and they don’t tell you a few need coins. So I’m wasting my time hitting buttons. The claw game is rigged I’m sorry but if you want people to attempt to play it maybe take off the slippery covers on the claw people would enjoy playing the game. Also it doesn’t go all the way down it stops half way or closes in mid air.
As someone from outside this state I only see this place as a simple stop in with friends to buy animé goods and leave.
I feel the people who run this place need to learn how to run a business better. And be more enthusiastic about their job.

Gotcha is a fantastic place to spend $ 10. They have mêlée, Tr4sh, various Nippon delights, and prize-​distributing arcade games that are super duper easy to beat. 10/​10, would bang.

This place may not be everyone’s cup of tea. In fact, it might be bizarre to anyone who is unfamiliar with gaming but if you are a true gamer, you would appreciate this place. No, it’s not aesthetically pleasing… No, there’s no uniform type of organization — but what does it matter when you’re gonna be fixated on a screen anyway?
Can you say hole-​in-​the-​wall? It’s def hard to find this place. especially in the night. I’m not gonna lie, this joint was a little sketchy to me at first, but once you step inside. it was like walking into that one neighbor’s garage who had his dad’s old tv set up to his game console times ten. Upon entering, it’s like I walked into Ohayocon’s gift shop. You can either chose a $ 10 all day pass which gives you unlimited playing time. Or you can buy a $ 5 one hour pass. Smart move by the owners. Btw, if you do plan on staying all day, outside food and drinks are allowed.
There’s like a secret room on the side, that’s brightly lit where they had different game consoles playing on like 10 different TVs… many different-​sized old school TV’s. From what I remember they had like 4 gamecubes and 3 Wii consoles and some other stuff. Smash Bros was a popular number. people were literally standing around watching cause there was not enough room to sit.
The majority of place was dimly lit. The main room had a variety of American and Japanese games. Of course there was like another 10 TV’s with individual games going but there were also many typical arcade games. There were multiple racing games such as motorbike racing to race car racing. There was a lot of percussion/​drumming games. Definitely not your typical «American» Dave and Buster-​esque arcade and that’s not what they’re going for. Whatever it is… Getcha friends and go to Gotchapon.

Awesome place for gaming! Lots to choose from and great with the $ 10 for all you want gaming. Check it out too if you like tournaments!

As a game fan unfamiliar with the world of arcade games, I had a great time here with friends for a birthday party. Unlimited play on the machines Was pretty neat. There wasn’t anywhere to sit, but that was because they had an ongoing Super Smash Bros tournament. They also turned off more than half the games in the arcade area to accommodate the tournament (the smash brothers players needed to concentrate). This would be fine, but they charged us full price. Maybe they should have half price admission on tournament days if they’re going to do this? Regardless, it’s a neat place to kill a few hours, it feels nostalgic, and I had a good time!

Where to begin? First of all, there isn’t much in the way of signage here, so if you’re like me, you’ll think your Über dropped you at the wrong spot. It’s a small brick building, maybe an old church?
Anyhow, there is a $ 10 cover– at least there was the nights when I went for a birthday party. But it’s BYOB and all-​you-​can-​play, so you’ll still spend far less than you would at the other, more well-​known arcades that have popped up. For the birthday party, we had the side room where we were able to keep all of our belongings, brews, and lots of pizza. Best adult birthday party I’ve been to!
The games are also much different than what you’ll find elsewhere. There was a lot of DDR competition happening; I was not involved. Quite a few rhythm games (think guitar hero-​esque), which I enjoy. However, most of the games directions and tutorials happen in Japanese, so it’s tough to know what you’re supposed to do. Which also makes for great comedy.
I like that this place feels totally secret. Go and check it out!

This place is a great find! They have a wide variety of arcade games, so there’s something for everyone! Lots of rhythm games like ddr, popn, iidx, and jubeat. Most of them are in great condition, and staff is attentive if you need anything. It’s 10 dollars for a day pass, and you can leave and come back if you wish. You also have a choice for 5 dollars for an hour. You can bring in your own food and alcohol, too which is nice.
The store side also has a wide variety of animé and Japanese gifts that you can browse through for free. They have some interesting stuff that’s definitely worth looking at. My only gripe is that for a place named Gotcha Gachapon, there weren’t many Asian people. I was the only one there– I was hoping to run into some of my own kind :(needs more noodles
