Hi tide has a Tekken machine the last time I checked. Wasn't working properly, but at least they have a working DDR/Dancing Stage Supernova. Pity these kinds of games aren't taking centre stage, the UK should have a resurgence of retro style arcades and even expand niche genres (mostly rhythm games) into the mainstream. It's also really unfortunate that enthusiasts like us can't take control of these arcades to bring them back to what they once were, even if it means bringing relics of the past or games that are completely alien to the British mainstream.
Callum Roper yeah the state of seaside town arcades is quite depressing. Check out Arcade Club in Bury for a superb experience of classic arcade and modern machines (biggest in Europe apparently) Also there’s another place called Timewarp arcade somewhere inSouthern England.
bluebirdlegend I am already aware of Arcade Club, just trying to find an opportunity to check it out. Timewarp I've never heard of, however. Sounds interesting though. Does Timewarp have a good variety of games there?
