High Score Gamer’s Loft: second floor of Game Nut Entertainment, 844 Massachusetts St.
If you’re sick of squinting at your tiny television set or bored of beating up on the computer while playing video games at home, try taking your skills to the High Score Gamer’s Loft on the second floor of Game Nut Entertainment, 844 Massachusetts St. The 14 high-definition television sets are large enough to see all the details, and every one is set up for online and system-link play so you can compete worldwide or just with people in the room. Owner Gene Nutt estimates he has about 2,500 games available to play on every video game system since the Atari 2600. All you have to do is pick one out. A $5 competitive tournament is held every Saturday at 2 p.m., and the loft is open during regular store hours, or until 9 p.m. every day except Sunday, when it closes at 7 p.m.
