The cool arcade pix thread

[Milky]

Is that a Vauxhall Shoveit on the right?

 

And on the left I reckon it's a blue Cortina parked close to an orange Mini with a roofrack in front. Mmmmm, '80's

I reckon that's solar yellow. Or "beige" if they had been a bit more honest in those days

Michael Jackson on Galaxy Force. MJ owned a Galaxy force and a R360. Diana Ross also owned a Galaxy Force. You should be able to see afterburner in the background, the machines have japanese markings on them too.

That really is the coolest outside of an arcade I have seen anywhere

funny I spotted the Electro Signs at the top pretty much straight away and I'd be happy for it to be there if it was my arcade because anyone that makes a sign like that, should have their name above it

outstanding ain't it

Great Pic that too Sara

Yeah that was a really cool sign outside the arcade, I have never seen anything like that here in the USA, as most arcade signs are very boring here and some are simply painted on the window, or the name of the place in blocky letters. The only other memorable sign I ever saw was a giant "Time Out" logo painted on a mirror that was a sign here in a Time out arcade (A popular arcade chain here in the 80's that was usually in malls). Unfortunately I don't have a picture of that. Unless the owner makes a great effort to create a sign its usually something boring here.

We're Trampoline & Sub Hunter EM games?

No but pre CPU for Sub Hunter and possibly Trampoline.

In that pic I have all of them apart from Trampoline and Acrobat. Finding those two would be amazing.
