POV: Every Namco Arcade in the UK 🕹️🎮
0Namco UK: Milking casuals since the dawn of time.\n\nFeaturing these popular games:\nSuper Bikes 1\nSuper Bikes 2\nSuper Bikes 3\nMario Kart\nSuper Bikes 3\n10p coin pushers (with 2p prizes)\nCrusin' Blast\nSuper Bikes 2\nJurassic Park\nStepmaniaX £1 for 1 song, which is usually broken.\nDid I say Super Bikes? No? Then Super Bikes!\nand Super Bikes 2\n\nSo Namco (and UDC) have a bit of a monopoly in the UK. They both supply machines to large chains (Like bowling alleys: Hollywood Bowl, Tenpin etc etc) and also smaller chains and individual locations.\nThey usually offer a revenue split with the location and have a maintenence guy visit every week or two to service the machines (The maintenence guy usually shows it, grabs the cash and leaves. He rarely fixes anything)\nThe problem is: They make pretty much EVERY ARCADE IDENTICAL.\nSo if you've been to a Hollywood Bowl in the far north of Scotland, then there is no point visiting the Hollywood Bowl in the deep south, because YOU KNOW it'll have: Super Bikes, Crusin' Blast and Mario Kart.\n\nNamco advertise a Pump It Up Phoenix on their website, but I've never seen a Pump It Up Phoenix in the UK (From Namco)! It's usually an old trashy Prime 2 (or earlier) cabinet which is offline.\nSee here: https://www.bandainamco-am.co.uk/products/amusement-machines/video-game/\n\nIn the world of Dance Games, they distribute broken StepmaniaX machines, but don't even advertise StepmaniaX in their catalog.\nWhat gives!\n\n#NamcoUK #Namco #NamcoArcades #shorts\n\nVideo Title: POV: Every Namco Arcade in the UK 🕹️🎮\n\nVideo File Created Date: 14 November 2023 (Video may or may not have been captured on this date, it shows the date the video was last converted.)\n\n-- Video uploaded and managed using YouTube Bulk Uploader for the Lazy!\n-- Manage and Auto-Tag your YouTube videos offline...
