I was walking down The Road the other day and there was an arcade machine outside a pub. A streetfighter3X-turbohardcoreurban-treme or something. Broken, uncared for, clearly depressed and in desperate need of a new owner, I talked to the land lord who said "if there are poeple willing to buy it, then i ain't throwing it away" Resisting the urge to morph into marmighty man and kick the snot out of him I asked why it was broken, where he had bought it, how old it was and how much he wanted for it. He only had a reply to the last question and it wasnt his. In fact it was just a shell. Anyway, I really feel the urge for some hardcore ardcade action but most modern ones are c$*p. So, anyone know where I can find some proper arcades in SouthEast England/ where I can buy a machine or just let me know your thoughts on the future of arcade gaming.

Exactly and then it tells you that you've bought something on auction before its closed and then you gotta go through a whole lot o hassle

The biggest killer on ebay is delivery, most people dont even ship, you have to pick it up yourself.

They're all around the £500 on eBay.


Good luck with that, then.

The death of the arcade is a sad thing.
