Wow! I had given up all hope of meeting people here. I have pm'd you my cell phone number so you can contact me when you arrive. Shanghai is a BIG city so there is a chance that there are closer options than what I'll be giving you. The major difference is that the venue I am directing you towards his a WIDE variety of games and is clean/smoke free.
Here's a LOT clearer instructions, I went and met up with Kusha and figured I'd take some photos and remeasure distances.
People's Square Subway to Arcade:
So if you're riding Line 2 it may be harder to find Exit 1. Exit 12 leads to Exit 1. After going out Exit 1 immediately turn right. If you walk forward 50 feet you should see the scene described in Panel 1 of the attached photo. The logo has been enlarged and the lady ( I hate to use her like this but she IS a recognizable landmark) has been framed in a red box (she is always at that bench). If you keep walking forward another 150 feet past that woman (do not go down the escalators) you should arrive at panel 2. I've enlarged the street address for your convenience (I do not know if that will help much). Go down and if you walk straight you should see the arcade.
D-Mall is a good place to take a girl on a date. Once you become more familiar you'll know of the route that you can take that does not involve going above ground (I just prefer it because less people in the way of my powerwalking).
