The Big Apple Arcade
📍 Las Vegas, NV
The Big Apple Arcade at New York-New York Las Vegas features Skee-Ball, Air Hockey, NBA Fever, and the latest video games alongside classic titles. Connects directly to the Big Apple Coaster entrance for combined coaster-and-arcade packages.
Best place to take kids in Vegas. It’s like a casino for children/teens/almost adults. If we’d had more time we’d have gone to King Arthur’s Tournament whose entrance is right in the middle of the arcade. Could be more generous with tickets and rewards, but that is common with ALL arcades. Great vibe and very well attended games, staff, and machines.
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families already staying at or visiting New York-New York who want to bundle a coaster ride with arcade time. Redemption prizes are standard arcade fare. Older kids and teens will get more mileage out of the game selection than toddlers. Budget-conscious families should load fewer credits per session and reload as needed.

“A much smaller arcade than the ones in neighboring resorts. Just as empty though, which is nice. Not slammed with people or crowded. The prizes are normal for most arcades. Definitely has a wide selection of games. Connects to the roller coaster experience which go hand in hand with bundles to buy. Nathan’s hot dogs located there as well.”

“Ahhhhh.... Wave bye bye to your cash in the form or credits lol. Great fun, but your credits don't go far. Budget for about $2 a minute”

Overview
The Big Apple Arcade sits on the second level of New York-New York Hotel, accessible from the casino floor or hotel registration area. The game floor covers classic redemption games — Skee-Ball, Air Hockey — alongside newer video and arcade titles. The arcade connects directly to the Big Apple Coaster entrance, and combo packages bundle coaster tickets with arcade credits and redemption points. Reviewers note credits move quickly through machines, so budgeting for extended play is important.
