Arcade Museum

The International Arcade Museum (IAM), home to the Museum of the Game, is dedicated to preserving and promoting the rich history of video games, amusement machines, and coin-operated devices. Located in Pasadena, California, the IAM houses an extensive collection, including video games, pinball machines, vending machines, and historical artifacts spanning from the 1880s to the present. With over 120,000 pages of educational content online, including the acclaimed Killer List of Videogames (KLOV), the museum offers a comprehensive encyclopedia of arcade games featuring in-depth descriptions, technical specifications, and collectible details.

In addition, the IAM supports the Video Arcade Preservation Society (VAPS), a thriving community of over 5,000 collectors worldwide. The museum organizes exhibitions and educational events, including the Penny Arcadia series, to engage audiences with the nostalgia of classic gaming. As a non-profit organization, the IAM warmly invites donations of rare machines and reference materials to enhance its collection and preserve the legacy of coin-operated entertainment for future generations.
