    Should have a $20 voucher via the app which gives $20 off similar to last time. Making it $80 for $200 credit.

    • Bugishere on 24/07/2023 - 10:42

      If you could use the $20 voucher on double days…can get min 3x value $60-$20=$120 only $34 with a 15% off GC….

      • Bugishere on 24/07/2023 - 10:42

        also…no need for a phone number for that voucher.

      • Slinky0111 on 26/07/2023 - 09:34

        I presume you can't use the $20 voucher at kingpin locations ? The voucher states timezone qld locations only

        • Bugishere on 26/07/2023 - 09:43

          correct. No good at kingpin, there is another $20 voucher for all non nsw and qld locations too

      Literally anything in the world can be considered an 'utter waste' if your mindset is that way. I think groceries and petrol are an 'utter waste' because I don't like driving to work or having to spend money to survive.

      Are holidays and other recreational activites an 'utter waste' too?

      Go for the rhythm games, you get a lot of time on them for the small cost. Taiko no Tatsujin (the drum game), chunithm, MaiMai, etc. all excellent.

  • PinzVidz on 23/07/2023 - 22:26

    Sorry dealbot.

    Support your local and proper arcades, people. Where 99% of games are a $1/pop. And none of that card shit.

    In Brissie; Netherworld, Pinball Haus, Pincadia, 1UP Arcade (the last being a pay reasonably low entry fee and play all day).

    • truetypezk on 23/07/2023 - 22:42
      +7

      When it comes to small arcades, you usually really have to pay the "tag" price. However with Timezone, you get all these double/triple value loads, mid tier bonuses, coupons all stackable with discounted gift cards. The real cost of playing a timezone game is probably somewhere between 50-70c if you are stingy enough.

      • rekke on 23/07/2023 - 23:02

        Exactly , although do they ever do Triple Dollar loads?

        • truetypezk on 23/07/2023 - 23:17

          Not formally but with the current PLAY20 coupon you basically get $45 for $15. Just create as many accounts as you need, no issues topping up multiple times when the place is not busy.

          Better get in quick as it is ending on 30 July.

        • Thaos on 23/07/2023 - 23:17
          +3

          Kind of… Kingpin (you can load your Timezone card there) had a $500 for $200 deal. I had one of those 10% off ultimate gift cards and at the time kingpin, was also doing a free $20 coupon. So for $160, I got $500 of Timezone credit. So that was 3.125 times credit, not even counting the progression towards mid-tier bonuses.

          The stars really aligned so I can’t imagine it happening very often. Also Timezone staff have a 30% discount, so if you have any friends working at Timezone, you could easily get $200 for $70 during double dollars. ;)

          Definitely beats out local arcades on value.

          • truetypezk on 23/07/2023 - 23:24
            +2

            @Thaos: Nice, didn't know about the Kingpin trick. Although I won't load up $500 at once as the kids won't be able to stop until they have use up all the balances on the card. The current $15->$45 promo seems perfect for those with young kids. For adults playing themselves, the Kingpin one is definitely the better way to go.

            Also if you have a Costco nearby I believe they have 20% off timezone/kingpin gift cards all year round subject to stock availability. I usually stock up some when I have prepaid cards to burn.

              @truetypezk: Don't forget to ask to spin the prize wheel at Kingpin after loading $100+. If you don't like your prize you can ask for points instead.

              • truetypezk on 24/07/2023 - 09:42

                @Clear: Nice, this Timezone - independent arcade comparison seems pretty similar to the Coles/Woolies - Aldi one. If you are stingy enough to exploit all their promos and loyalty programmes it turns out to be a lot cheaper than the supposedly "cheaper" alternative.

    • capslock janitor on 23/07/2023 - 22:57

      Any in VIC?

    • ThighHighDemise on 24/07/2023 - 07:46

      As much as I love a pint and some House of the Dead or pinball at Netherworld, Timezone is really the only place you can play rhythm games and games like maxitune due to online connectivity and venue whitelisting by Konami/Sega/Bandai Namco.

      Probably the minority, but if you get decent at the rhythm games it's about $2.6/15min (before double dollar discount and not counting the 5 minutes between songs in maimai). Plus all those cabs tend to have a community around them that you can get to know if you want to.

      I agree though that if you're mainly playing redemption games you're just wasting your money though.

    Meh, mostly just a bunch of rigged cashgrab prize machines. Miss the olden day real arcades with mostly games/cabinets where you'd vs randos for hours or make new friends as a kid. Also $100-$200 burns out fast, especially for a small family. Better off saving your money and going to pax or similar events with no limit all day arcades/games.

      265,000. I recently "broke" the claw machine with the giant tickets that you drop onto a pusher. Broke in the sense that you could grab from the area it normally drops the ticket.

          I still have a significant amount to spend on prizes. Last time I was in Japan I ended up shipping back 6 boxes of plushies and other prizes from claw machines there. Cheaper, easier to win and JP exclusive Pokemon plushies.

      Considering you can get games for about $1.20 each in this deal, you would need to be playing more than 23 games per hour to even break even with that, and then you dont get any tickets. For a good player that could be over 10k tickets
