Arcadeon’s owners described the celebrations as lots of fun and controlled chaos.
Over 100 people attended the games shop’s celebrations, with lots of new faces at the shop over the weekend, Arcadeon’s co-owner Jordan Main said.
“It was a good opportunity for people to come and see what our shop is all about,” he said.
Arcadeon runs after school programs for kids and holiday programs.
“We’ve been trying to see what we can do for the town,” he said.
“The shop is a bit of a reward system from parents for kids.”
Attendees dressed up in lots of costumes including Catgirl, Captain America, characters from Pokemon and Darth Vader.
Mr Main said “everyone had lots of fun”.
