Sunnyvale Town Center (opened 1979) briefly hosted an Aladdin’s Castle on Town Center Lane. By 1984, the arcade sat opposite the food court, touted in *San Jose Mercury News* ads as the peninsula’s “newest video kingdom.” Players flocked to Galaga and Spy Hunter under Bally’s glittering marquee.
The arcade closed in 1992 as the center slid into decline; redevelopment has since erased the unit, but South Bay nostalgia blogs keep its memory alive.
