    The machine is kinda busted so you can't play with him. Drinking more is an option.

    You're asking what to do at an arcade?

      I'm not like a super enthusiast about pinball, so I had to look that up and came up empty handed. Best I can figure is there is a company that makes tables cslled Stern and I have to assume that they (or at least it is your opinion that they) suck?

      Yeah. Stern is one of the few companies making new tables, and the stuff they produce these days is all about making an account and tracking your games with QR codes. They even have a few where there is a kind of meta-game that you play across multiple rounds. Not really my thing.

      A friend of mine got a summer job working a pinball joint, so I've learned to appreciate the game a lot more recently. Helps to have an inside person giving me free plays.

                Drink more then go play some racing games. They are far more hilarious when drunk.

                I'm a huge fan of the Gran Turismo (others as well, including rally) series. I'm pretty good too. I have my own wheel/pedal setup and take beating my PB's on tracks pretty seriously. The handful of times I've played drunk have been insanely great fun. It also reinforced how important it is to NEVER drive drunk

                    Play one of the other rhythm games. Preferably Wacca or Chunithm.

                      I made up a game called Deep Spy Penetration to play whenever I'm drunk and bored indoors. The goal is to get into as many areas of the building as possible without getting told to leave.

                      Rules:

                      1. Don't be an asshole. Don't steal stuff, break anything or move barricades.
                      2. Don't lie to get access. Asking is allowed.
                      3. Opening doors with easily missed "no entry" signs is allowed, anything the average person might not see. Don't open doors with blatant warnings.
                      4. If you get caught you lose.
                      5. If you set off an alarm you mega-lose.

                          I think they're asking what to do at an arcade if you're drunk and your husband is playing dancing games.

                                Given that our positions should absolutely be reversed here, I would either:

                                A) Continue the 'today is opposite day' trend and go find a booth with a retro side scrolling beat em up in it. Preferably TMNT
                                OR
                                B) Go find a non-dancing rhythm game (I absolutely can crush the piano game), or something with an element of RNG to it (casino lite!)

                                  Drinking and watching since the only way my SO is playing a dance game is at my behest and I’m not looking away from a miracle.

                                    Anything at all! I would have to think so hard how in the world could it happen that I suddenly have a husband.

                                        I'll answer as if I'm on lemmynsfw (and this question would be better than the slop that a particular not-bot account continually posts there): I'd be on the dance tablet with him, and if it's a private arcade (the best type of arcade), I'd be doing versus with him and we'd be seeing who could distract the other the best with some games of touchy-feely in the middle of it. I'd bet I could take a load off of his mind while we're dancing against each other.
