I don't think this has been posted here yet, apologies if it has.

Game Focus has it in the basement section of their shop. :)

They are based just around the corner from Casino, I think it is Goodge St. If you're walking down TCR towards Casino from Center Point/Oxford St, it's the road just before it on the left.

Was in there earlier having a few goes, and ended up chatting to someone from GamesTM magazine, who was there to review it. :cool:

enjoy..

So I can take from this post that they don't have it in Casino even:spock: ? Oh, the situation's getting more depressed as time goes by:( .....

Anyway, at least one place has it and when I visit my friend in Enfield I'll make sure that I go and have a play on it:) :)

The newest things Casino have are the two Atomiswave cabs. They still don't have Dolphin Blue on either of them yet though.. :(

Trocadero is still as usless as ever, but they did have a Border Down cab, which I suppose might be useful if you want to try it before buying the DC one.

It's a games shop, only been there for a few months or so (at least I don't remember it being there before that, lol)..

I would never have thought of looking in there for SvC either, my friend spotted it when he was in there the other day. They do have signs on the window saying "SNK vs Capcom Chaos - Arcade inside" though ;)

I have no idea of their opening times, sorry.

Ah, looks like their website is up and running now :)

It's good that England at least still has some good arcades, but it;'s just a shame that they're all located in London:( Still, makes a visit to the capital all the more worth while;) :) :buttrock: !

you're right...
but...I tell you what....
I never suffered claustrophobia in my life.....but in Trocadero I do
I mean....to reach the top you need 5 min...
then if you want to go out...It's like a f***g labyrinth...you need at least 15 minutes
...maybe they DONT want you get out:)

and is too much confusing, too many people(read morons) and too noisy...I usually dont HEAR the vg I'm playing

Casino on the other hand...is small, quite and the basement is just for fighters...I always meet some cool, NORMAL people to challenge to SF2 KoF or whateva
...and need 2 seconds to get out.....:D

Cool, will have to check it out soon...

We usually go to the Arcade Zone which is just round the corner from trocadero, or sometimes las vegas.

It's all changed now, Funland has moved back to it's original location, i.e. levels i and 1 on BOTH sides of that huge escilator and it is a LOT nicer in there now (better laid out, more change machines etc. Much more of a frendily buzz when it is crowded).

I know what you mean about the other layout though there was ONLY oNE way out but one wrong turn and you would be back at the begining again!!!!!

hasnt always been the case, though. Any old school players (like myself) will remember good old las vegas before it was bought by Play To Win.

5 Credits on 94 or super turbo for a pound......mmmm.....value for money......mmmmmm
