Video Game Arcade Tours - Empire Bowl and Plaza Arcade (Skegness, UK) 🇬🇧

Empire Bowl and Plaza Arcade in Skegness! 3 Huge rooms and an upstairs! This is probably the biggest arcade in Skegness, at least, one of the biggest!
They have it listed as two seperate businesses (Empire Bowl and Plaza Arcade), but the rooms all join together.
They are actually linked with Lucky Strike arcade down the street, but it was nice that the manager here was willing to talk with me and understand that I just wanted to film the games for you guys to see!
So props to the manager (Whose name I didn't get) and also Kevin!

An amusement arcade (often referred to as "video arcade" or simply "arcade") is a venue where people play arcade games such as video games, pinball machines, electro-mechanical games, redemption games, merchandisers (such as claw cranes), or coin-operated billiards or air hockey tables. In some countries, some types of arcades are also legally permitted to provide gambling machines such as slot machines or pachinko machines. Games are usually housed in cabinets. The term used for ancestors of these venues in the beginning of the 20th century was penny arcades.Video games were introduced in amusement arcades in the late 1970s and were most popular during the golden age of arcade video games, the early 1980s. Arcades became popular with children and particularly adolescents, which led parents to be concerned that video game playing might cause them to skip school.

What happens when you say Biggie Smalls in the mirror three times?

He come outta nowhere and kicks your butt?

They had one of those weird DDR conversions in Ryde. Nasty LED stretched screen. Was an EM2 if I remember rightly.

[@s34nvideos]

It's a company called PLS. Rather than fixing the CRT (maybe just a simple re-cap), or replace it, they throw in a tiny LCD and re-shrink the screen area. It's kinda difficult to time on them because the screen area is so small, i've seen some with a visual delay too, I imagine from whatever they are using to make the 15khz signal compatible. its awful and lazy!

[@AJ_UK_LIVE]

@@s34nvideos PLS - that's right! And yes, the timing was very odd. You could get the hang of it but you could easily fall into great attacks.
