text: At one point in my life I was known for my Nintendo abilities, particularly anything involving the name \"Mario\" (even Dr. Mario, thanks).  And don't get me started on how bomb diggity I was at The Lion King.  You could only wish you had my skillz.\n\nWell the video game days are behind me now but I live vicariously through my husband.  I watch him play a few times a week and he graciously plays Lego games with me so I can feel like I'm still in the gamer loop.  If gamers played Lego games, that is.\n\nWhen I first heard about Insert Coin(s) I knew that I had to get my husband down there.  Beer AND video games?  He would love me forever.  So I was stoked when I had the chance to be at a Yelp event there this past summer.  The place was pretty amazing and we just finally got the opportunity to come back this past week.\n\nOk, so I'm confused on how to rate the place.  It's catering to the nerdy crowd and the owner is a Pac Man master.... But there are tables with bottle service like you'd find at a club on the Strip.  There are tons of screens to play video games at the bar for free (Mortal Combat and Vodka Cranberry, anyone?).... But the drink prices nearly rival the bars on the Strip.  Seven bucks for a Budweiser on a Thursday?\n\nCons: Drink prices and appears to cater to a hipper, cooler (read: not into video games) clientele on the weekends.\n\nPros: Friendly bartenders, free video games, lots of arcade games, cool atmosphere, and a mellow crowd during the week.\n\nIn the end I'm going with 4-stars.  Insert Coin(s) has done a lot for downtown and I really appreciate that.  Plus they gave me a few free drinks at a Rugby Sevens event last week.  I think that helped make up for the $7 Budweiser fiasco.\n\nIf you're a nerd like me, hit the place up during the week.  If you're a cool kid, then get there on the weekend.
