[@Rob.Coleman]

What a phenomenal collection, definitely something for everyone there. Great stuff 👍👍👍.

[@icuk7]

Awesome collection. That Night Driver sitdown is fantastic!

[@saskia6750]

70s Brighton seafront under the palace pier,next to the groyne they had this,plus atari fire truck and Datsun 280z......great memories x

[@massdrivermusic]

Star Wars and Spy Hunter cabinets really brings me back. Great collection!

[@kevinmccartney4906]

Brilliant game room Gav! Fun tour Al! 👏

[@Marathon_Gaming]

Iv never seen that bull strength cab wow that’s some piece of history there

[@Seftdelmer]

The cream cakes are back!

[@RetroReels]

Awesome curated collection!

[@ewstargamer]

Wow what a collection so many cool games, I remember playing that Monaco gp in an arcade in sheringham when I first moved to Norfolk and that hyperball pinball is crazy Great video Alex 👍

[@Alsarcade]

@@ewstargamer Monaco Gp is still such a fun game. Thanks alex

[@PeterR1chard]

The tours are back! Always love the intros. 🧁🧁👍

[@zatoichigaming9104]

Omg!!!! I’m so glad your back we missed you so much.. your our favourite by miles xx

[@Alsarcade]

Glad you found me 😎👍

[@DadLadsGaming]

😂😂I used to work down the Docks so I knew what a Stevedore was ..what a nostalgic machine. So many amazing cabs. 400m looked like purgatory 😂😂 Can we have a look at Gavs bikes next time too👍👍😂

[@Alsarcade]

Oh mate that 400m is a absolute killer of a event, it certainly sorts out the men amongst the boys

[@Marathon_Gaming]

lol I would be a pensioner as well on that strength gane 😂 “end up following through “ 😂😂😂😂

[@devastator200]

I missed the intro music on the road!!! Brilliant! And of course the custard cream😆 Again an absolute beast of collection here, so great to learn more about classic arcades, love this hobby. really appreciate these vids Alex, thanks mate! 😎👍🏻

[@Alsarcade]

@@devastator200 Thanks dude 😎👍 good job the game rooms tours are not every week I’d be massive 😂

[@retro_reflections]

Cheers for showcasing this beautiful collection of absolute belters, every single one a stone-cold classic in stunning condition. Many thanks to you and Gavin for making this lovely vid!

[@Alsarcade]

It was a pleasure to film and share with you his amazing games room. Thanks for your sub 😎👍

[@electricadventures]

Gav has an amazing selection of machines, never seen that many vectors in one place! So cool seeing that Night Driver, that would be a very rare beast. Star Wars Sit Down cab is the holy grail for most arcade room owners. I need to get my Berzerk going, I have ordered a High Score save multi-game for it, when it arrives it might spur me on to finally get it fully working. lol Hyper Sports fingers! Great to have the tours back (and the mandatory cake on the way of course :)).

[@RetroEdUK]

What a great arcade! Love the design of the outbuilding; has got me thinking 😄 Tron is such an iconic cab but I’m drooling a lil more over that Spy Hunter. Great collection form Gav, and great to see you back to the tours Alex!

[@Alsarcade]

@@RetroEdUK Thanks Ed Gutted I couldn’t make Blackpool would have been great to see you and hang out, the event sounded great.

[@RetroEdUK]

Superb event Alex! Would blooming love to meet up mate. Have a fab weekend.

[@cameralabs]

What a fantastic collection! Loved seeing the Red Baron standup... and great to see you back too Alex, subbed!

[@Alsarcade]

@@cameralabs Thanks Gordon, glad you enjoyed it 😎👍

[@ukxvc]

Absolutely fantastic.Gav's collection looks awesome.

[@Alsarcade]

@@ukxvc thanks mate

[@Ed-eq5kd]

Quality tour. Really interesting collection, don’t think I’d ever realised how good those vector games still look, when on such high quality kit as Gav has. Great to see Spyhunter, I remember playing the sit down at Barry Island please park during a school trip in 1988, such iconic soundtrack and cabinet artwork.

[@Alsarcade]

Me wants a Spy Hunter 😂 Thanks for watching Ed

[@Sinisteve]

Top video mate, really enjoyed Gav meet, he’s a top fella who is ridiculously clever, him and his wifey were such charming hosts. Really loved playing Red Baron and Night Driver, my arm is still hurting after wrestling the Bull🙈💪🏼🤣

[@Alsarcade]

@@Sinisteve Great day and always a pleasure to see you steve.

What an absolutely beautiful collection, so much vector gorgeousness. Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@Alsarcade]

@@curtisosborne7235 thanks mate, it’s good to be back 👍

[@Thomaslubbock]

Great to see a Game Tour back (including a cake break) and what a lovely collection Gav has. Loving all the Vectors and so good to see a Spy Hunter. I used to play it a lot in the 80s and it's one of those games where original controls are so important - emulation just doesn't work. Looking forward to more!

[@Alsarcade]

Hi Thomas, glad you found me on KZbin. I don’t think spy hunter even works in mame because of all the upgrades. Cracking game and one I’ll be looking out for for sure. Thanks for watching

[@Thomaslubbock]

@@Alsarcade You could be right - I play an old console version on my RetroPie which is a surprisingly good experience given it was played about with to work with hand controls. Can't remember which version (PS1, PSP or maybe a Sega one)

[@davidretrogamesplayedbadly3533]

Personally I would be happy to just own what's sat in the overspill room 🤣. Amazing collection, love to see all the vector games. Would happily spend hours in there. Nice to see you covering collections again mate.

[@Alsarcade]

I know every single game Gavin owns is either a classic or just god dam beautiful. Glad you enjoyed the tour dave it’s something I really enjoyed filming.

[@ArcadeAzrall]

Cracking video, Alex! Loved this one and the game room tours are my favourite, so i'm over the moon they are back! Even the cakes were on point!

[@Alsarcade]

Thanks Allan It’s a great pleasure to film these types of videos.

[@SpaciesArcade]

OMG! This is a stunning collection! Key premium classics, beautiful vector line-up, great choices.....had to look up the Humanoid song that includes Berzerk samples!... That sit down Night Driver is unreal. It has a similar finish to the Computer Space cabs...very cool. Strength Tester was a blast! Slick editing too mate, highly enjoyable, thanks for sharing!

[@Alsarcade]

@@SpaciesArcade thanks Gregg! Funny you mention the editing because I didn’t spend that much time on it like I used too. Gav has some amazing games and that night driver is really good surprisingly because it simulates quite fast, everyone enjoyed that on the day. Cheers mate glad you enjoyed it

[@retroimportgamer513]

Wow, what a room and what a collection, every cab is a stunner but all those vector game cabs are just stunning. I didn't realise Rip Off was an arcade game The Hyper Sports cab is a thing of beauty and having T&F mixed in with it for playing both events is brilliant Fantastic Alex👍

[@Alsarcade]

@@retroimportgamer513 thanks James, yea most of those early vectrex games are arcade ports.

[@KingMikie1]

great video👍wish my mum and dad had left manchester for a seaside town bitd i'm 100 perecent certain i would have had a happier life... and some cabs in my shed😆

[@Alsarcade]

Haha but I bet you had a few in corner shops in the city no ?

Always good to see a sit down Star Wars & of course that 'Tron'. I have to say I think my favourite of this vid was that Judge Dredd pinball machine

[@Alsarcade]

Thanks Lee I didn’t get to play Judge Dredd but it’s a great theme to have for a pinball. I used to love the comics bitd but the films have never done anything for me. Maybe they should make a anime?

[@nerdygeezer78]

@@Alsarcade I love Judge Dredd.... I have many graphic novels. Did you not like the film 'Dredd'

[@Alsarcade]

@@nerdygeezer78 not really mate, it was ok for a action film with the Judge dredd theme slapped on top of it. But I wanted more of a comic artistic book feel about it and don’t feel it had it.

[@nerdygeezer78]

@Alsarcade the problem is they tried more comic feel and they got the Stallone version.

[@Alsarcade]

@@nerdygeezer78 I haven’t seen that since it was released.

[@OneSwitch]

Blimey. What a collection. That Night Driver was lovely, even with wonky sound. I wonder how many people in the UK have anything like that size of collection.

[@Alsarcade]

Not many mate, especially that well curated. Thanks for watching as always 👍

[@RetroSK3L3]

WOW!! What a collection, those vector cabinets look absolutely stuniing. That 400m race looked brutal!! Great video mate, looking forward to the next one.

[@Alsarcade]

@@RetroSK3L3 omg the 400m is absolute killer and really sorts out the men from the boys. Thanks for watching mate

[@RetroRicc]

Awesome game room. I always wanted a Tron cabinet when I was a kid, amazing looking futuristic machine

[@Alsarcade]

Hi Tony Tron is an awesome cabinet and not to bad a game. It’s definitely iconic for the 80s that’s for sure.

[@ArttuTheCat]

So many legendary Arcade cabinets of the 1980's 😺👍🕹️. I even played the original Arcade cabinet of Konami's HYPER SPORTS at a former Arcade game hall in Myyrmäki, Vantaa (Finland 🇫🇮) back in 1998 or 1999. At that time, i was 15 years old 😺👍🕹️. I still have that game for my Commodore 64 as the original first release (tape) and in a compilation called KONAMI COIN-OP HITS (boxed, tape). A big retrospective like 👍🕹️ from Vantaa, Finland 🇫🇮.

[@Alsarcade]

@@ArttuTheCat Hi to my arcade brothers in Finland 🇫🇮 Hyper sports has held up well today and it’s still great fun to play amongst friends. Thanks for watching mate

Incredible cabs and amazing video Alex! I would love to get a spy hunter, its one that I played back in the day, as soon as you hear that soundtrack the memories come flooding back. Its amazing to see these cabs being kept alive and in such fantastic condition, must take so much time and effort just to keep that lot just running ! Great to see the game room tours are back and the of course no game room tour is complete without the cream cakes 😂! laters mate.

@@LaughItupFuzzball70 Bless ya cheers mate

[@ShaunsArcade]

Brilliant Video mate. And a good bit at the end showing friends from the community having fun in the games room. Completely agree with you on the Omega Race cab art - absolutely my favourite cab art as well. I played the cockpit version at Galloping Ghost last year and the controls are situated on either side of your seat. Rotate on the left, fire and thrust on the right. It still plays well, but it took me a bit of time to get used to.

[@Alsarcade]

@@ShaunsArcade Thanks Shaun I better cockpit was a sight to behold. I’m going to have to plan a visit soon to the USA because there are so many arcades I want to see. See you on the old poddy soon 😜👍

[@bluetonic78]

Enjoyed that Alex, the sights and sounds of those arcade machines take me back. Loved seeing the cakes back as well, got to have one of those in your vids! I noticed you were playing Black Widow near the end there....did you know they released Black Widow Recharged a year or 2 ago? It's a revamped version of the original and part of Atari's Recharged series...I bought it a while ago along with Caverns of Mars. Might be worth checking out if you haven't already...even if they aren't your cuppa it may be interesting to see how you think they compare to the original(s). By the way mate, if we're ever in the same vehicle in the future, I'm driving. One look at your handling on Night Driver was enough to convince me you're a menace behind the wheel 🤣 It does look a tough game to be fair so I'll let you off haha

[@Alsarcade]

@@bluetonic78 I’ve got all the recharged Atari games on the switch and they are all brilliantly executed in a new way. Black widow is a fantastic game and if I had the room I would definitely own. Yea don’t ever join me in a car but I swear I’m a pretty good motorcyclist 😜 Nice to see you here Alex and for taking the time to watch. My next video will included vinyl so you might be interested in that 😎👍

[@shain6946]

What a great collection. I’ve never seen or played a real Spy Hunter but I used to play the C64 version for hours which was a pretty good conversion.

[@Alsarcade]

If you do get see one at arcade make sure you play it as it’s super cool 😎

[@bobbus_74]

What a collection! Some absolutely beautiful examples there. Great stuff, Alex. Enjoying the direction of the new channel, mate. (Incidently, it was Stakker Humanoid that used the Berzerk sample. I still have that record on vinyl).

[@Alsarcade]

Thanks Bob Just doing what I’ve always done for many years and that’s enjoying my hobby and the people that enjoy it as well. I didn’t know that about the Berzerk sample, I’ll have to see if I can find it. Cheers mate
