Mikey’s Hookup

Neon-hued blank CDs, webcams, headphones and iPod accessories cram the shelves at the electronics and audio-video accessories chainlet’s northern B-burg outpost. In a nod to the nabe’s indie music scene, Mikey’s offers guitar amps encased in cigarette boxes, record needles and turntables. What’s more, anyone with an ailing MacBook can play Streetfighter II on a Japanese arcade machine or Ping-Pong on the in-house table while having one of the shop’s Apple technicians restore their hard drive.
