Aladdin's Castle was a national chain of game arcades.
In 1974 the chain was purchased by Bally Manufacturing, which went on to become a leading manufacturer of coin-op video games in the 1980s. At its peak in 1983, the chain had 450 locations.
In 1989 or 1993, Bally sold the Aladdin's Castle chain to Namco, which merged it with Namco Operations to form Namco Cybertainment Inc. The merger produced the largest arcade operator in the United States.
