Pure, unadulterated gaming nostalgia – Chinatown Fair documentary releases today on iTunes, Google Play, Amazon, Steam, Vimeo and more.
The Lost Arcade is the story of Chinatown Fair, the last arcade in New York City, and the community that made it legendary. Following a highly praised theatrical release, the retro gamer-fueled documentary film was released today on iTunes, Google Play, Amazon, Steam, Vimeo, VHX, Vudu, Microsoft Xbox, Sony PSN, Comcast Infinity and Direct TV.
The Lost Arcade sheds a behind-the-scenes light into the demise of arcade culture, as it coincided with the rise of home console and online gaming, and showcases the dichotomy of how gamers connected then vs. now. But more importantly, it highlights the diversity and camaraderie among the competitive gamer community that arcades like Chinatown Fair were so uniquely able to foster.
An intimate portrait of the diverse community at Chinatown Fair, the beloved downtown New York City hangout, THE LOST ARCADE chronicles the evolution of video arcades, while celebrating the camaraderie and history of a pop culture phenomenon. Masterfully portraying the sights and sounds of a changing scene, wistful yet hopeful, THE LOST ARCADE is a surprisingly emotional portrait of the last holdout of old-school arcade culture in New York.
Featuring an original analog synth pop soundtrack by composer Gil Talmi and lush digital cinematography that evocatively captures chinatown nights, THE LOST ARCADE, the debut film from Kurt Vincent and Irene Chin, is a poetic tribute to video arcade’s past and future.
