How To Choose Your Billiards Cue

If you’re an experienced player, choosing a pool cue means more than just grabbing what is available on the stand. Each cue is different and will provide you with different benefits during your game.

Choosing the best pool cue for yourself does not have to be expensive. If you are just beginning to play pool, don’t worry about getting the best cue on the market. At Games For Fun, we have a wide variety of styles that can accommodate every level of player. You can check out our entire selection online and at our showroom in San Bernardino.  We have cues as low as $12.99.


There are a few things to consider when choosing the pool cue that is right for you:


Length:  

The length of cues varies slightly, depending on the needs of the player. On average, most cues will be in between 57 to 59 inches. A standard one-piece cue will be at 57 inches, while a two-piece cue will be 58 inches. One-piece cues are great for keeping in the game room. If you travel with your cue, having a two-piece is much more convenient for storage. If you are below average height or need a cue that is suitable for children, the best option is either 36 inches or 48 inches.


Weight:

The weight of your cue corresponds with the length of your cue. If you are smaller or a junior player, a lighter cue will be much easier to maneuver. Pool cues normally weigh in between 17 ounces to 21 ounces. If you are unfamiliar with the correct weight for you, it is important to try out your cue before purchasing. If the cue is too heavy, you can risk lifting the tip of the cue, which will skew your aim.  Nobody wants to scratch like that!


Cue Tip:

Having the proper tip on your cue can transform your pool game dramatically. We carry different sizes and materials to fit every type of cue. Be sure to get the correct tip for your cue, as there are a variety of installment types. Most of our cue tips come in four separate hardness levels: super soft, soft, medium, and hard. Hard cue tips will last longer than softer styles, but they create a more difficult ball spin. Deciding which type of cue tip to get will depend on how often you replace your tip. When the tip begins to wear, it will affect your game play.


Whether you just picked up billiards as a hobby or you are an experienced veteran, we have hundreds of cues for every level of player.


Did you know? Games For Fun is one of the West Coast’s top distributor for McDermott pool cues. McDermott cues are proudly made in the U.S.A. and are covered by a lifetime warranty. Our staff is happy to take you around our showroom in San Bernardino and show you all of the models we have available.

Air Hockey

How To Keep Your Air Hockey Table In The Best Shape

air hockey table game at home, play

Since the 1970s, air hockey has been a game of friendly competition and excitement inside arcades, bars, and at-home game rooms.

Having an air hockey table in the home is the perfect way to bond with family and friends. From a quick game for 2 or a tournament night for your friends with beers, this game is always the center of attention in any game room.

Air hockey is favorite subject to Games For Fun. We love being able to provide families and businesses with one of the unique and dynamic games in the industry. Whether you envision a fashionable, modern style like our 7 Foot Monarch Table, or something more relaxed and fit for the kids like our Dynamo Arctic Wind Table, we will help you find the table best suited for your home.

Having an air hockey table requires regular, yet simple maintenance to keep it looking and running its best for years.

Consider these tips to get the most out of your air hockey table:

Clean Your Table Regularly

The key to a smooth surface that provides the best gameplay is keeping your table clean. If you are a regular player, we suggest cleaning your table once a week. Regardless of where your table is placed, a simple wipe down with a cloth will ensure that no dust is building up inside the air holes. The best way to avoid clogging the holes during cleaning is to turn on the blowers beforehand. The holes on the table should be cleaned about once a year.

Keep A Cover On After Game Play

The best (and easiest) way to keep your table clean when it’s not in use is by keeping a table cover over it. Especially if you are not going to be playing for a long period of time, a cover is necessary to avoid any dust from collecting on the surface and pipes. Not only can dust clog the air holes, but it can eventually find its way into the motor. A cover is a vital piece in keeping your table running at the best quality.

Check On The Screws And Bolts

Nothing is more frustrating than playing air hockey on an uneven surface. After many intense rounds of play, your table can begin to show warping effects that are caused by leaning and moving the table around. Every few months, check on the stability of your table and ensure everything is tightly in place. The best way to avoid any unevenness is by keeping rough play at a minimum.

Protect The Smoothness Of The Game

The surface of an air hockey table is slick and smooth. In order to keep up with the fast-paced excitement of the game, having a surface that allows the puck to glide seamlessly on the surface is crucial. After you have cleaned the surface from any dust and debris, smooth out your mallets and pucks with sandpaper. A smooth bottom surface quickens the pace of your pucks for a much more exciting game.

With these tips and tricks, you can keep your table in its best shape for everyone to enjoy.

With so many different styles to choose from, finding the perfect air hockey table for your home can be a difficult task. Our staff is happy to take you around our showroom in San Bernardino and show you all of the models we have available.

We want to ensure you get the table of your dreams that can stay in your family for years to come. Right now, we are offering 0% same-as-cash financing on orders $500 and up for 12-months!

We would be happy to walk you through the different styles of air hockey tables in our showroom in San Bernardino. Visit us right off of the 215 freeway on exit 43 for West 2nd Street.

Why Bumper Pool Could Be Your Ideal Game

For as long as most can remember, billiards has been a game favored by just about everyone. As fun as it is, it can be a hard game to master. With so many different angles and shots, winning a few rounds isn’t always as simple as it sounds. If you’re the type who enjoys the game of pool but only picks up a cue stick a few times a year, then bumper pool could be the ideal game for you.

But, what is bumper pool exactly? This game is not one you could find at your local bar, but this hidden gem has the potential to be the perfect addition to your game room.

Our showroom displays a few different types of bumper pool tables. Although the most popular shape is a rectangle, you can find octagon-shaped tables at Games For Fun as well.

While a traditional billiards table isn’t practical for all homes and players, bumper pool gives everyone an opportunity to enjoy the classic game in unique style.

Here is why bumper pool shouldn’t be a game to miss out on:

Objective

Unlike regular billiards, learning how to play bumper pool is fairly easy to achieve. There are only two pockets on the table- one for each player. In order to win, you must sink all 5 balls into the opponent’s pocket with 12 obstacles, called “bumpers,” in between. With only a few strategies to win, this is a billiards game for the masses. Having a bumper pool table in your home will create lasting entertainment the whole household.

Size

One of the most beneficial aspects to bumper pool games is the table’s compact size. Unfortunately, not every home is equipped to hold a full-sized pool table. This leaves a lot of billiard enthusiasts having to result to other places to play the game they love. Bumper pool is the perfect alternative, as the table is only a fraction of what a conventional table is. Also, the cues are about half the size of a regular cue. The smaller size allows you to hold the bumper pool game in your living room or game room, without sacrificing space.

Simplicity

After a long day at work, most of us just want to immediately sit on the couch and relax for the rest of the night. While playing a few rounds of pool after a hectic day sounds fun, sometimes it takes more physical and brain power than we have the energy for. Especially if you don’t have your own billiards table at home, going out is not always ideal for weekdays. The rules and size of bumper pool create a game that allows the players to de-stress in a much more simple manner, while still enjoying the classic roots of pool.

Interested in shipping one of our bumper pool tables to your home? Check out our Renegade Slate Bumper Pool Table. This model is sleek in design, yet sturdy enough to withstand years of play. This table includes two 48-inch cues, 10 bumper pool balls, a table brush, chalk, and free shipping.

We want to ensure you get the table of your dreams that can stay in your family for years to come. Right now, we are offering 0% same-as-cash financing on orders $500 and up for 12-months!

We would be happy to walk you through our different bumper pool models in our showroom in San Bernardino. We are right off of the 215 freeway on exit 43 for West 2nd Street.

Foosball

Which Foosball Table is Right For You?

From parlor halls to living rooms, foosball has grown into a game that everyone can enjoy. As simple as this game may seem, it never fails to create excitement for players of all ages and levels.

Picking a foosball table will depend on not only the needs of your players but the environment the table will be in as well.

At Games For Fun, we take pride in the variety of foosball tables we have available online and in-store. The different designs and models of our tables can cater to not only families but arcades and bars too! Come visit our showroom in San Bernardino where you can see our beautiful selection of tables for yourself.

 

Discover which foosball table to get for your space:  

 

Home

As the weather gets colder and schools break for the holiday, kids start to stay indoors more often.  Foosball is the perfect way to keep them entertained and out of trouble. Foosball tables that were made to stay in a family room have long-lasting quality, so you can pass it on for generations.

Getting a foosball table for the home gives you more choices on styles and designs that will fit into your decor. Our Marksman Foosball Table is one of our favorite tables for the home.  It possesses a sleek black design and beautiful characteristics. The features on this beautiful piece include heavy duty material, so your young ones won’t break any pieces as the competition heats up. This table also includes cup holders and separate ball returns on each side to make your game experience even more satisfying.

 

Commercial

The most common place you will see foosball tables is in public places, such as pubs and arcades. These tables tend to take quite a beating from the fierce competition, as they often can see hours of action straight.  If you are considering getting a foosball table for your business, you’ll want to have a sturdy piece that can withstand intense games.

Our commercial Tornado Elite Foosball Table provides the quality you need to keep the game going for years. With simple cleaning and maintenance, keeping this table in its best shape is easy. The natural wood handles give players better accuracy and control of the game.

 

Indoor

Most of the time, you will keep your machine indoors but not in a game room.  These tables which you may keep in a garage or office don’t need to be as stylish as a table placed in a living room setting.

A great table for any indoor setting is our Challenger Single Goalie Foosball Table. What makes this table unique is the single goalie feature. Unlike most modern foosball tables, this one requires its players to have more skill blocking the ball by using just a one-man back line. This makes the game much more intense and interactive for the players.

 

Outdoor

While having a foosball table outdoors is not as common, it can surely enhance your backyard into the ultimate entertainment space. If you plan on keeping your table completely outdoors, make sure your table has all of the necessary amenities to withstand changing weather.

The sturdiness of our Kettler Monte Cristo Outdoor Table allows you to keep it on the patio without worrying about outdoor damage. It’s coated legs and body prevents any rust or warping from occurring. To ensure your foosball table is kept in the best condition, keep a cover on it and avoid direct sunlight.

 

Whether you’re just beginning to pick up this hobby or you have been a professional for years, this game will always spark adrenaline and entertainment. Finish off the new year by adding the missing piece to your entertainment space with a foosball table.

 

We want to ensure you get the table of your dreams that can stay in your family for years to come. Right now, we are offering 0% same-as-cash financing on orders $500 and up for 12-months!

 

We would be happy to walk you through our different models in our showroom in San Bernardino. We are right off of the 215 freeway on exit 43 for West 2nd Street.

The Best Game Table For Your Home

If you look back at your favorite memories as a kid, they might include game nights.  These nights were most likely filled with family and friends playing board games, video games, and table games.  

Over time, we see board games being stashed away in the closet and video games becoming replaced by the next best thing.  Game tables stand the test of time.

Having a game table in the home provides a place for your favorite people have a good time. Depending on the amount of space you have available, it can be difficult fitting all of the games you love in one place.

At Games For Fun, we offer a wide variety of games that are suitable for every entertainment space. In our showroom, you’ll be able to find your favorite games in different sizes and designs.

While there are plenty of games to start that game room with, it is important to determine which game tables are right for your home.

Here are a few things to consider for each game before bringing it home:

 

Billiards

The game of billiards has been entertaining people inside homes for many generations.  A pool table is a beautiful piece of furniture that can be played by 1, 2, or 4 people at a moment’s notice. A pool table is one of the biggest game tables you can own indoors; it is important to consider the amount of space you have available. The design of our Huck Pool Table features distressed oak and elm wood, giving it a rustic look. In most homes, the billiards table is the staple piece in the room. Not only because of the entertainment it provides for everyone, but because of its quality design that can turn the table into a beautiful decor item.

 

Foosball

One of the most popular games you’ll see in homes is foosball. This thrilling game allows for two to four people to play at a time, heating up the competition in your home. The table’s smaller size allows you to hold this game in tighter spaces, such as apartments. Your foosball table can reflect your style, like the design of our Victory Foosball Table. The cherry wood vinyl finish brings a modern look that you won’t find inside an arcade. A great option for the kids’ playroom is our Marksman Multi-Game Table. This 4-in-1 table includes foosball, table tennis, pool, and air hockey.

 

Air Hockey

If you are looking for a game table that brings energy and excitement into your home, an air hockey table is the right game for you. Similar to billiards, it is important to consider the size of an air hockey table. Having a large room to hold the space for this game is essential to get the best use out of your table. This gives you a chance to explore different styles that will complete your home. Our Challenger Air Hockey Table is the perfect blend of arcade features with a home-like design.   

 

Shuffleboard

If your game room is located in a big space, like your garage or living room, then you can consider a higher-end game table that will harmonize with the decor of your home. Shuffleboard tables are a high-quality, stylish type of game piece that lasts much longer than a smaller game table, due to the way they are crafted. For a modern style table that will compliment your home, check out our Fundamental Shuffleboard Table. This Generations original contains solid wood cabinets and legs with an espresso stain finish.  

 

Regardless of the design and size of your home, there are many games available that can be incorporated into your space seamlessly. Your game table can become not only your favorite source of entertainment but also a furniture piece that resembles your style.

 

Aside from our wide selection online, we have many styles for each game displayed in our showroom. Come visit us off of the 215 freeway in San Bernardino.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday: Ping Pong | Table Tennis Specials

Do you get excited every November for the great deals that retailers offer?   The Black Friday and Cyber Monday craze continues to grow with extended specials that last much more than 24-hours.

At Games For Fun, in San Bernardino, gamers can take advantage of discount pricing throughout the holiday weekend – that is of course, if they aren’t weary from their busy shopping extravaganza at nearby Ontario Mills.

The holiday season is a perfect time to buy pool tables, air hockey tables, pinball machines, shuffleboard, jukeboxes, and of course ping pong tables for the home.  From November 23rd through November 26th, Games For Fun is offering 10% off everything in store and online, and for in-store purchases, buyers can enjoy 6 months same as cash financing for orders $500 and up with approved credit.

 

Let’s break down some of the table tennis or ping pong brands you should know, and answer these important questions for buyers:

 

How mobile is it?  

Since these game tables are fairly large, consider how you will be able to move your table around if needed. If you are tight on space, your table should be easy to maneuver. Aside from our JOOLA Professional Table, which is the perfect sturdy and beautiful table to stay ready for action year-round, all of our ping pong tables have the ability to fold upwards for compact storage and contain wheels for smooth transportability.

Looking for something even more portable? Skip the legs, and just get the table top! Our JOOLA Conversion Table Tennis Top is perfect to place on top on tables such as your pool table, so you can play easily without taking up more space in your home.

 

Where is it going to stay?

The most important thing to consider before buying your ping pong table is where you will have it in your home. Since table tennis can be played inside a room or out in the backyard, sizes and styles will vary.

If you are planning on keeping your table inside your garage or game room, you’ll want to have a smaller style that won’t overcrowd your area. The sleek design and size of our JOOLA Tour 1500 Indoor Table Tennis Table are created to integrate into your home seamlessly. This 9×5 foot piece fits perfectly in any space while still allowing room to play.

Keeping your table outdoors is a little different, as outdoor tables require weatherproof material. In order to keep your table in the best shape, your outdoor table will need to have a thick surface that can withstand weather changes. Our Kettler Outdoor Table Tennis Table is made of sealed aluminum with climate control material to last many years of sunshine and rain.

 

How long will it last?

Considering all of the elements within choosing your ping pong table is essential because this piece is meant to last for many years. Like any high-quality item, the better you take care of it, the longer it will last. Take notice of the leveling of the table top and the sturdiness its legs, as this will determine the durability.

After time, you will notice your table has aged when the bounce is not as consistent. Especially if your table is kept outside, the top can get warped and lose its shape. Keeping a cover on your table is essential for daily care.

Every ping pong table that is purchased with us has a 5-year warranty to ensure you are getting the quality deserved.

Ping Pong Tables At Games For Fun

65479586 - ping pong table tennis game practicing sport concept

Table Tennis, also known as Ping Pong, began as a simple “parlor game” to enjoy indoors during cold winter months. The classic game we have grown up to know has evolved to become a popular recreational activity played both inside and outside.

From an Olympic sport to a common piece in many game rooms, table tennis has provided entertainment to all types of groups. Playing table tennis is a great way to spark up competition with family and friends, or to simply unwind after a long day at work.

Man Cave To Fan Cave: A Room For Your Favorite Team

Looking back on the days of our childhood, most of us could agree that our fondest memories include games – more specifically sports. Whether it was going to Saturday afternoon tee-ball games or listening to your dad scream at the television during Monday Night Football; sports bring out the competitive, yet territorial side out in all of us.

We all love being at the games, experiencing the action in person.  But hosting a party at home is a close second. While a majority of us would assume this happens in our living rooms, at Games For Fun, we think differently.

Perhaps you’ve considered the ultimate man cave for your home; but have you ever thought about taking it a step further and building a fan cave instead?  As the most modern way of decorating your extra space, a fan cave allows you to bring out your passion for the team you’ve loved since you were young.

Here’s the type of gear you’ll need to create the fan cave of your dreams:

For Your Pool Table

When transforming your room into a sports sanctuary, you’re going to need decor that seamlessly fits into what you already have. Your pool table is the perfect place to show loyalty to your team! If you can’t get your team’s mascot printed on the felt, don’t stress, we’ve got other ways to represent your team that are much less costly and time-consuming.

Instead of making permanent changes to your pool table, adding accessories with your team’s branding will give your table personality and flair. Switch out your set of balls or cues with school spirit! Are you a die-hard Alabama fan? Consider a maple cue stick covered in classic red and black fiberglass. Once you’re finished playing, cover it up with one of our NCAA Fan Shop pool table covers.

For Your Mini Bar

Save money and bring the sports bar into your room! With a bar in your game room, you’ll be avoiding the big crowds and angry rival fans. When your team is far away, there’s no better way to cheers to your team than at your themed mini bar. Showcasing your team pride is as simple as adding in bar stools and pub tables. Hosting a backyard BBQ during the Oklahoma State game? Bring out a couple stools and tables to complete the look; your guests will be nothing short of impressed (and a bit jealous).  

For Your Wall

If you have a more modest taste and would prefer not to overload your room with team spirit, wall decor is a great alternative. Without changing the items in your room, you can add memorabilia to your walls that will compliment your team’s style. But instead of having signed jerseys and photos, try something unique! Keepsakes like our dart cabinet is a perfect way to incorporate your team without being overly flashy. Next time you’re watching Auburn play, showcase your passion for the team during halftime while playing a round of darts from our dart cabinet.

You love your team, show them off the right way! Looking for decor that matches your school spirit? Check out our collection of NCAA Game Room products.
