Whats the best Arcade Game ever made? 😇🕹👌 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= MORE Retro Events: tinyurl.com/RETRO-EVENTS My Top Picks: tinyurl.com/CCGS-BEST-GAMES
What a great place to visit! and amazing that these days you can play these games on the the good old pc or online! Spend a bloody fortune on them back in the day. Glad you two enjoyed your day out 👍
Ahh cool thanks man, yeah we had a great day out. I was telling the young lad that I used to have around 50p when Ii went to the arcades and I had to choose 5 of my best games and 'get good' otherwise it was home early. Grafting out the skills hehe... amazing to revisit them all again and re-live the nostalgia with free play! Mind you I did pretty well with 1 credit still for an old fart 😇🕹👌
That Arcade game hall looks retrospectively awesome 😺👍🕹️. STAR WARS looks amazing 😺👍. DONKEY KONG 😹👍🕹️!! And the music of BUBBLE BOBBLE... OH YEAH 😺👍!!! Commodore 64 is there, too 😺?! OOOOOH... YEEEEEEAAAAAAH 😹👍!!! HYPER SPORTS is one of the best arcade sports games, i have ever played 😺👍🕹️. Definitely as brilliant as TRACK & FIELD. Thanks for sharing this retrospectively awesome video 😺👍🕹️.
Glad you enjoyed it my good friend and as always, thanks for watching and supporting the channel. Was an absolutely fantastic day and I was in awe of all those fantastic games. Brought me back to my youth 😇🕹👌
Awesome glad you found the channel 😄 yea it sure is an amazing place with plenty of nostalgic games on all 4 floors. Will definitely go again, had a great day 😇🕹👌
Great vid. This is a great nostalgia trip. I was just about to comment that I couldn't see TMNT or Tron, then they show up side by side. If I go, I'll probably never leave!
Trust me, I didn't want to leave this place. Minutes turned into hours... everywhere I looked I had a massive nostalgia rush. One of the best arcade halls I've ever been to 😇🕹️👌
theres a tmnt and tron on the third floor right next to eachother int he top left corner as you walk in , also has big simpsons , and the big xmen cab. Vinny
Great video mate and a great time for you and your kis. I'm from the UK but been in Australia for the last 16 years. Asteroids was the first game I ever played in the arcades....born in 75. I hope I can get back to the UK someday and have the same experience with my kids. Much love x
You and your kids would absolutely love the Arcade Club and to top it off there's one in the seaside resort of Blackpool so could be a great little holiday - I'm going myself in Aug 😇🕹👌
You should definitely go there sometime soon, it's well worth it! My only tip is to go on a cool day, don't leave it until the deep heat of summer... as apparently it gets stifling hot indoors 😇🕹👌
Absolutely! Those were the best days ever... the smoke filled arcade halls of the 80s, noises blaring everywhere... kids running amok - great days we can replicate once more thanks to the Arcade Club... minus the smoke :) 😇🕹️👌
Highly recommended purely for the amount of memories that flood straight back playing the games, especially Robocop & Rolling Thunder! Had such a great day 😇🕹👌
I know what you mean, they should definitely branch out throughout huh. I know there's one in Blackpool and also Leeds... but these should be UK wide now and even in some US & EU countries... that would be awesome. Spread the retro love 😇🕹👌
I live close by so been here a few times. Absolutely love the place, the pinball machines are great, the Japanese rhythm games are awesome, the classics like Donkey Kong, Pacman (I play that one alot), the newer arcade cabs with Tekken, the Mortal Kombat line, the foods good, alcohols cheap, what more could you ask for 😁😁
Precisely! It's an awesome place and am planning on visiting the others soon hopefully. I'm not that far from Bury either, it only takes 20 mins or so to drive there - I'll definitely be going back 👌🕹😇
My man! Your reaction to seeing The REAL Ghostbusters game is priceless! 🤣 But this place! How? How can such a paradise possibly exist in our world?! It's too amazing to last! 😍😍
Haha yeah I'd not seen the actual arcade cabinet in the UK before seeing it there. Had such an amazing time - can't recommend the Arcade Club enough. Legendary place for nothing but pure nostalgia 😇🕹👌
I love the Yorkshire Amiga club and am hoping to be over in Sheffield for the next meet ❤️ yeah I think the Bury club is the flagship for the franchise, a huge 4 floor mill! Loved it 😇🕹👌
Ahh I'm definitely going to the Blackpool one next - and hopefully Leeds at the back end of summer. This one though is definitely the flagship, knackered after walking those four floors hahaha definitely recommend it big time. What an ace day 😇🕹👌
7:08 Just my luck. i check footage of the arcade to see if the high scores for Sega Rally are showcased (even if briefly) so i can see if my Top 3 time is still there, and when the camera cuts to it, it's showing 9 - 16. My timing is that of a cartoon character. I remember that all i wanted to do was beat Lakeside for the first time, and i got far more than just that. great video though. (if you do remember your trip at all, was the name HAM on the leaderboards still?)
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer if you wanna know how the search has been going, there's been no luck. either i find someone who didn't bother to record the machine, they came in at the wrong time, they didn't shoot at the correct angle, and there was even one guy that displayed the full screen as he was playing it, but because he was zooming past it like he was on a rollercoaster and his camera was really bad the text was basically invisible.
Ahh crap yeah, am sorry Hamm - I had a good look through all of the footage I had at home and must have forgotten to reply but... unfortunately, I didn't capture the high score table. I think we will need to go back there and beat the score someday! 😇🕹️👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer good luck with that, because the run i got was blessed by the RNG gods, where most of the time the positioning of the AI cars are brutal.
How was the sound of the cabs, went to the blackpool one yesterday and most machines either had the sound off or very very low volume, completely ruined the experience for me. Also only had 4 astro city cabs which was very disappointing, there's tons at this one!
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer I can tell, as you were walking I was like oh my god i remember those days. Arcades used to be everywhere. Now by me unless your at a movie theater or a bowling alley they have these half ass arcades that only has the new games. Which are good but I wanna play a game of strider or q bert .
Exactly! Thats precisely the way I see it too. As soon as I heard the Double Dragon or Daytona theme tune... I went into nostalgia heaven for a little while haha, love those games and the attract mode music just brings it all right back for me 😇🕹️👌
This looks great we have been to Arcains in Liverpool which is also amazing, 3 floors full of retro gaming. However, my partner has a raspberry pi with every single game on so it's a shame to pay when we have them all at home. 😂
Very true, I have them all on Hyperspin at home - but I do love the nostalgic feeling when going to an actual arcades to play them on the cabinets. Play Expo in Blackpool.os another venue I love attending each year 😇🕹👌
I could spend a whole holiday at this place! wowie i wanna play all the shooters and a FACE REVEAL! lol the kid playing the button smashing game reminds me of working in IT lol
Yeah they have a full line of them on one side of the room. I really should have covered then but to be honest I was so overwhelmed with the nostalgic arcades I completely forgot. Doh!! 😇🕹👌
If I ever tried doing what that kid was doing, I'd probably have a heart attack haha - need some serious stamina for that game - I'll try it next time I see it though, for the craic.... see how my hand to eye co-ordination is 😇🕹👌
I suppose it all depends on the day. As you'll see from the video I got lucky with the day - but we went first thing in the morning. So I'd recommend go early for sure 😇🕹👌
Oh yeah I played them all and had a good time playing Rygar - the majority of games were played off-camera really as Josh (my son) was wandering around on his own so I had nobody to film me playing if he sodded off somewhere haha. Superb day here, highly recommended 😇🕹️👌
So good! But so '10p destroying' back in the day. I love the game and the music but I genuinely suck at getting through even the graveyard level 🤣🕹👌 glad it is on free play, must have died 20+ times off-camera
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer I've been there once and it was epic. Must have been like 1991 or something. Remember being at some place in Piccadilly Circus and trying out early VR based around the Amiga. Those were the days!
Yeah we were just having a wander round really and filming the place was more of a last minute after though so all I had was my smartphone, great place - highly recommended 😇🕹👌
I must admit... thats exactly what I did to be fair. I mean, the new stuff looks amazing and the cabinets are huge and multi-coloured with flashing neon lights and all... but just give me a regular, zero lights, pure loud arcade cabinet anyday. Oh and stick Double Dragon in it for me too 😇🕹️👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer The uprights are classics just brings back so many happy memories for sure. What I liked is the Goliath cabs when the arcade operators didnt have a dedicated cab for and the generic goliaths were the cheaper option just little things that add to the nostalgia of the place.
Whats the best Arcade Game ever made? 😇🕹👌

What else could a man wish for... oh yeah, beers - there's a bar there too 🍺😇🕹🕹👌
Dragons lair. Still have it on amiga, one of the games i never really played but still have it all my life lol
It's amazing in the arcades, never really translated well over to the home computers which is a shame. Brilliant on laserdisk though 😇🕹👌
Ive been thinking for going for a few years .. Now i really wnat to go .. Thanks for the video mate the place looks great :)
Highly recommended purely for the amount of memories that flood straight back playing the games, especially Robocop & Rolling Thunder! Had such a great day 😇🕹👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer yeah ive been to one in Leeds. But this place looks loads bigger ..
Is the most awesome place in the world. Why can't there be arcade clubs in every city!!!??
I know what you mean, they should definitely branch out throughout huh. I know there's one in Blackpool and also Leeds... but these should be UK wide now and even in some US & EU countries... that would be awesome. Spread the retro love 😇🕹👌
What my dreams are made of. Just awesome. Imagine working there!
You and me both! I remember looking around thinking 'this is the dream!' - I could have stayed there all day long 😇🕹👌
There's one of these in Norwich, I went there for my 45th birthday 😂 what a great day. I played Chase HQ for about an hour.
The plan is to try and get to them all although Norwich is probably a 5 or 6 hour drive for me it'll be worth it 😇🕹👌
They all look in such good condition. Must be some genuine upkeep going on here.
This place is superb, I've still yet to go to the other branches too in Leeds & Blackpool... but they're on my list for the year 😇🕹️👌
Haha just the sound from Ghost n Goblins takes me back to 1985
Chris Butler did a fantastic conversion to, for the Commodore 64! Love that game but it's sooooo tough 😇🕹️👌
Was a good day ☺ 🕹🎮👌🏿
What a great day 🐴

Awesome, yeah it's fantastic isn't it. I think my next one is Blackpool this summer, all being well 😇🕹👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer nice wish u an early happy birthday
Probably my favourite arcade club. Seems bigger than Leeds and Blackpool! - Yorkshire Amiga :)
I love the Yorkshire Amiga club and am hoping to be over in Sheffield for the next meet ❤️ yeah I think the Bury club is the flagship for the franchise, a huge 4 floor mill! Loved it 😇🕹👌
Last went here a few years ago , much needed revisit this year me thinks, did go Blackpool one few months bck nowhere near as good as here
Ahh I'm definitely going to the Blackpool one next - and hopefully Leeds at the back end of summer. This one though is definitely the flagship, knackered after walking those four floors hahaha definitely recommend it big time. What an ace day 😇🕹👌
Completely amazing.

Bury one was bang on. Been a while since I've been now but comes highly recommended. I'll try the Leeds one soon hopefully 😇🕹👌
Oh man I wish I had one of those by me.
Probably the best Arcade I have been to... it had almost every arcade from my youth! Pure Nostalgia 😇🕹️👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer I can tell, as you were walking I was like oh my god i remember those days. Arcades used to be everywhere.

Never been, but checked it out and they've got a decent selection of Arcade machines. One for the future 😇🕹️👌
6:12 Drop it!
My dad loved that one too, i have memories of most of them, im still in my 30's aswell.
Thankyou for your co-operation 😆🕹👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer Hahahah, Affirmative
yaaay finally a pro playing the maimai machine
It was like watching NEO himself 😇🕹️👌
Subbed !! ;)
Much appreciated 😇🕹👌
I could spend a whole holiday at this place! wowie i wanna play all the shooters and a FACE REVEAL! lol the kid playing the button smashing game reminds me of working in IT lol
You should never work that hard haha. Yeah he was like the real Neo huh. If you ever get over to the UK I'll take you there my buddy 😇🕹👌
Top place
Love it here, I shall be going to the one in Blackpool this Summer with a bit of luck 😇🕹️👌
do they have pinball machines there
cheers from toronto
Yeah they have a full line of them on one side of the room. I really should have covered then but to be honest I was so overwhelmed with the nostalgic arcades I completely forgot. Doh!! 😇🕹👌
5:08 You'll try it One Day along with KONAMI BEMANI games
If I ever tried doing what that kid was doing, I'd probably have a heart attack haha - need some serious stamina for that game - I'll try it next time I see it though, for the craic.... see how my hand to eye co-ordination is 😇🕹👌
Bro I’m going there tomorrow
Fantastic. It's an awesome place... you can literally spend all day there! Enjoy 😇🕹👌
Do you get those tokens and tickets that you can spend on items by getting points?
Not here I'm afraid, at least not when I was there. You just pay one fee and everything is free to play once you're in 😇🕹️👌
Hope one day i can afford to go.
Hopefully, its definitely worth the trip if you can ever make it there 😇🕹️👌
Seems to be a great market for retro games, im very happy about this.
Brilliant place - definitely recommend you check it out sometime 😇🕹️👌
I hear it can get very busy. Is it hard to get on the popular machines?
I suppose it all depends on the day. As you'll see from the video I got lucky with the day - but we went first thing in the morning. So I'd recommend go early for sure 😇🕹👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer Thanks. I’m going down for the first time this Friday. Really looking forward to it after watching your video 😃
You walked passed Rygar as if it isn't there! xD Would love to spend a day there, but the entire Africa is in the way :/
Oh yeah I played them all and had a good time playing Rygar - the majority of games were played off-camera really as Josh (my son) was wandering around on his own so I had nobody to film me playing if he sodded off somewhere haha. Superb day here, highly recommended 😇🕹️👌
I was the one who held tappy hands game man’s beer
That guy has some absolutely legendary dexterity! 😇🕹️👌
Lol R-Type at the entrance :) I would not made it any step further
Hell yeah! I'd probably be stood playing it with you... what a game huh. I did play it loads off camera, class game 😇🕹👌
wheres black tiger? and why is that game so underrated?
12:46 - such an awesome game isn't it 😇🕹️👌
Is this much bigger then arcade club leeds
Not been to the Leeds one yet, hoping to go sometime in Spring 😇🕹️👌
Lmao the real life neo tho
Yeah!! I know right, that guy moves like he's just had the kung fu program loaded! 🤣🕹👌
This place is amazing. Epic place. Highly recommended. 👍 Ghost 'N' Goblins is my favourite platformer of all time. Unforgiving. 🤣
So good! But so '10p destroying' back in the day. I love the game and the music but I genuinely suck at getting through even the graveyard level 🤣🕹👌 glad it is on free play, must have died 20+ times off-camera
Ghouls n ghosts my favourite game from that era 👍💪
R-type!!!!
Such an amazing place, I think they literally had EVERY game from my childhood! 😇🕹👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer My face is envy green right now..
You would have loved it there. You never know... UK trip in the future someday 🤔🕹👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer I've been there once and it was epic. Must have been like 1991 or something. Remember being at some place in Piccadilly Circus and trying out early VR based around the Amiga. Those were the days!

Yeah we were just having a wander round really and filming the place was more of a last minute after though so all I had was my smartphone, great place - highly recommended 😇🕹👌
not into the new stuff at all i would bypass all of that to get to the classic floor .........showing my age
I must admit... thats exactly what I did to be fair. I mean, the new stuff looks amazing and the cabinets are huge and multi-coloured with flashing neon lights and all... but just give me a regular, zero lights, pure loud arcade cabinet anyday. Oh and stick Double Dragon in it for me too 😇🕹️👌
