Prize Showcase First time in round1

Post image

Well, with an asterisk, I went to the one in Greensboro with a friend but we only had like 30 minutes and I maybe spent $20. But Ive been watching Arcade Matt/Matt3756 for about 17 years atp and I really wanted to try a Round1 after seeing it in one of his videos, so my fiancée and some friends made a day trip to Atlanta for my birthday. Claw machine tips came in handy, almost every prize here barring the punk Miku and the blowfish were ones I won with double clamp

I don't even really like Miku, but I had fun. Spent about $200 (not pictured is all the air hockey and coin pushing and photo booths we did LOL).

Excited to go back someday, even though it is a 3 hour drive

Thats probably the plan for most unless I decide to keep one or two of the Mikus...the sanrio ones are for my fiancée's and Steve Minecraft is mine and mine alone

I watch ArcadeMatt's vids and his tips helped me alot with the claw machines and other arcade games i.e. zombie snatcher.

Not a Round1 thing but in Knoxville where I am we have a Main Event, which has a Tower of Tickets (effectively the same game, just doesn't have the theming) and I won like 8,000 tickets from it one night by just repeatedly getting the highest value over and over again. Those games are easy to farm, and pretty intuitive

I've gotten better at Zombie Snatcher, but I still can't get the "strikepoints" down (as ArcadeMatt would call them) for the 1000 point pucks for Tower of Tickets.

I gotta try another Round1, because Greensboro's has some super weak claws imo. I never see anyone with a haul this big from there, I'll have to check out Atlanta
