★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great arcade with decent rhythm games (especially Nostalgia). They are generally in a good condition, but buttons sometimes stuck as other reviewers and players mentioned. It’s not a critical issue yet, but it prevents me getting a full combo or perfect several times, so I have to rate down a bit.
Still this is great arcade, which is highly recommend to everyone! (As well as Nostalgia)

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I have fond memories of the arcades from the 90s to early 2000s, those days are long gone unfortunately, unless you go to Japan, but this is about as close as it gets and thats why I give 5 stars even though it is not my dream arcade or anything
I was pleasantly surprised to see some Tekken machines and a bunch of Midnight Club 6 machines which reminded me of the days when there were loads of Initial D cabinets. I had a great time and also really liked to see the rhythm games, especially Taiko no Tatsujin. The skill games like ball and hoop throwing stuff arent usually my thing, but were actually a lot of fun.
Great gun games like Time Crisis 6 and Walking Dead are also on offer along with other racers like Mario Kart Arcade Ed. and Cruis'n Blast.
From my experience, everything seemed to be in decent working order and the card system worked well.
There isnt too much old stuff apart from a bartop type thing, I would love to see a more retro area or even a bar area for the older folks like me, especially with some old candy cabinets with the likes of Street Fighter, King of Fighters, Metal Slug, and 2d shooters..... stuff like that, maybe a Crazy Taxi, but im not sure how easy that stuff is to come by these days anyways..... or how popular it would be.
My only real complaint is the bathroom situation, its not too convenient.
Overall this is 5 stars, i was surprised to see it and how good it was and it was one of the highlights of my trip to NZ/Auckland and I will definitely be back next time. I hope it is successful.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place is an ok arcade because there is a variety of claw machines (most of them are not rigged) and the games there are great! Its full of people, but sometimes, there is barely anyone in there. However, because I am giving three stars, there are some complains from me about GameOn (I will try my best not to be too harsh). There is blaring copyright music playing in the background while I am filming for my YouTube channel. I know this is for entertainment, but please, if you can, remove the music? Or play it a little bit quieter? And another thing is, outside the arcade is terrible. Drunk drivers, cigarette takers, loud motorbike idiots and robbers. Just a few weeks ago, I parked my electric scooter and locked it perfectly and it got stolen. Please figure these situations out so that GameOn can be a better place!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Thought this might be just another arcade, but it was better than expected. Our family group was looking for some activities one evening after dinner. Ages from 5 to 55, we all had a lot of fun! Great variety of games to suit everyone.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I contacted Kathy and the friendly party team to organise a party for an adult (ages 18-50+) netball team. We were able to book the party room free of charge for the evening and order in pizza which was a great way to keep costs down for the event, and break up the games with some food! The team were also able to provide a great deal for our group of 10 people. We all had an awesome time, we loved the variety of games and that there were options for multi-player (especially the horse racing, hoops, 4 player ice hockey, and the multiple car racing games around). Highly recommended for a fun party spot, thank you very much to the team.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Pretty large place with bunch of games available (more than 60prize/ticket game cabinets, and more than 50 video games). Probably this place has the best selection of rhythm games in Auckland (or perhaps, in NZ). This place is also beginner friendly. I’m at the beginning level in rhythm games and a cool asian guy taught me how to play games, which made my experience awesome and he was really good at games!!
I had great time, and there are something gameon can improve. Sometimes cabinets are not clean, and buttons sometimes stuck, possibly because someone spill juice or coke. Secondly, some cabinets are working, but not in the best condition, especially rhythm games. I know some rhythm game players go to other place because they have better condition of cabinets, so probably better to keep this in mind. Finally, although I know at least one great player, some players (or community) are not reasonable unfortunately (I see similar review, like players who are not great at sharing fairly, or person who handles the cabinets roughly, or even spill liquid to the cabinets for fun…).
Still this is good place to visit, and I believe it has full potential to become the best arcade in NZ. recommend to check it out!
Here are some details of games they have:
BeatmaniaIIDX29 castHour
DDR A20plus
Dancerush stardom
GITADORA High-voltage (drum only)
PIU 20th anniversary (2cabs)
Nostalgia op.3
Jubeat copious
Mario cart DX (4cabs)

Tekken tag tournament2 (2cabs)

And more!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Went there with the plans to try win my partner some things while we were there. Staff were friendly and congratulated me on my wins, plenty of machines which all appeared to be in good condition.
Wide variety of machines to play on such as crane games, kid friendly ones, point earning ones as they use a card system not the old paper tickets, shooting ones, racing ones and dancing ones. There are other ones but this list is long enough. You get the point, great staff and fun machines = fun
