Good question!

I've never noticed anything other than the touch-screen machines in coffeeshops or bars!. Except fhr the Bulldog Hotel used to have a Pac-Man machine at 1 point.
But I've a feeling that video arcades possably dont interest the Dutch like a lot of other countries?.
EDIT:
Just done a google search on the issue and this thread came up second in the results listings lol. Apart from that nothing!.

Only place I've seen any machines in Amsterdam was the Spirit coffeeshop down Westerstraat, the coffeeshop itself sucks imo as it felt more like a youth club.

Best game ever!!If I was able to open a business I believe it would be an arcade seeing as alot of people look for games to play.I don't know how many locals it would attract but I would get the stoned tourists for sure

I think there probably is the odd bar\coffeeshop or 2 that has the odd retro arcade cab.

Not just the time youd spend there for the love of it. But those 80's retro arcade sounds would really make you buzz like crazy after a couple of joints!.
