I think it was 86 or 87 for me, it must have been as I have memories of playing Konami's Big Spin WEC Le Mans
Also the Deluxe (moving) Space Harrier...Donkey Kong and Double Dragon. Sadly the arcade isn't there any more
it was in Dawlish Warren, a very large wooden hut that was also peppered with pins too! It's now replaced with a big glass thing full of ticket machines. Great memories of the old days
I think this is the reason why I'm on a path to have one of my own. Until May this year I wasn't planning owning one....I got messed around by someone selling me a DK machine, he never came through in the end.
