DISCLOSURE: This film as made in association with IGN.
At the outset of Kurt Vincent's documentary (written/produced by Irene Chin), The Lost Arcade, we are told that this is the story of the last arcade in New York City. The statement is then instantly tweaked to explain that it is the story of the last one that survived by having people putting quarters into a machine to play a game.
It is a small, but important, refinement because by the time the documentary ends there are not one, but two open arcades (at least two that the film discusses) which is a little like saying Westeros doesn't have a king and then only adding in later that there are two kings and three queens. Not only that, but one of the two open arcades sports the same name, Chinatown Fair, and is in the same location as the one the documentary is eulogizing, the "lost arcade." While there may be a technical accuracy to the statement, it is still rather disingenuous.
