The Flipside Arcade is an arcade located in The Underwhere. It is accessible through a golden Warp Pipe in the back room of the bar, which can only be entered while Flipping as Mario. The arcade is run by The InterChet.

In the arcade, the character can play four different minigames (one being unlockable) and set high scores. Except for the unlockable minigame, Hammer Whacker, each minigame costs 10 Flipside Tokens to play. Flipside Tokens can be bought from The InterChet for three Coins each, and earned after playing minigames, which can be traded in for items that the character may not find commonly outside the Flipside Arcade. The arcade is frequented by Hort and Mort.

If the character flips in The Overthere bar in Flopside, they can find two chests instead of the gold pipe, making the arcade the only place in Flipside not existing in Flopside.
