Our story
Junior Game Retro Arcade was born from a simple but powerful idea: to create a space where the magic of classic gaming brings generations together. Founded by passionate retro gaming enthusiasts, our arcade aims to preserve the golden age of video games while introducing these timeless experiences to new players.
Located in the heart of Wollongong, we've carefully created an authentic arcade environment that captures the sights, sounds, and excitement of gaming's most influential era. Our collection of 9 arcade cabinets and our retro console lounge features the games that defined childhoods and continue to inspire gamers today.
Our Mission
At Junior Game Retro Arcade, our mission is to:
- Preserve gaming history by maintaining authentic arcade experiences
- Bridge generations through shared gaming adventures
- Create an inclusive community where everyone feels welcome regardless of age, gender, or gaming experience
- Celebrate Japanese gaming culture through both games and authentic snacks
- Support local families with a safe, engaging entertainment option
What Makes Us Unique
Authentic Gaming Experience
Our arcade features 9 carefully selected arcade machines, Try to feel like the original specifications. From the tactile feel of the joysticks to the distinctive sounds of each game, we've preserved the authentic arcade experience.
Retro Console Lounge
Beyond our arcade cabinets, our comfortable console lounge lets friends and families enjoy multiplayer classics from the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, N64, and PlayStation 1 eras in a relaxed environment.
Japanese Snack Culture
We believe gaming and snacking go hand in hand! Our vending machines offer treats and drinks direct from Japan, many of which aren't available elsewhere in Australia. We also offer Japanese snack subscription boxes so you can enjoy the arcade experience at home.
Family-Friendly Environment
We've created a welcoming space where parents can share their gaming memories with their children, and where new gamers can learn alongside veterans. Our birthday party packages and family events are designed to create memorable experiences for all ages.
