Games
| Music Game | Price | Condition | |
|---|---|---|---|
| DanceDanceRevolution A (Europe) Location: Right at the back, next to the entrance to the bowling alley Comment: The pads are not very sensitive, but worked enough to clear a 16. R.I.P. Dodgems DDR, you will not be missed even slightly | £1.00 for 3 songs | Great | |
| Beat 'em up | Price | Condition | |
| Minecraft Dungeons Arcade (International) Comment: From what I can tell there are no card readers, meaning you can get new cards but you can't use them. I have no explanation for this because it's really weird. | £1.00 / £1.00 to continue | Moderate | |
| Other | Price | Condition | |
| Hungry Hungry Hippos (International) | £1.00 | Perfect | |
| Racing | Price | Condition | |
| Mario Kart Arcade GP DX (International) Location: Left side, against the dodgems. Comment: 2 linked cabinets. | £1.00 | Great | |
| Rail Shooter | Price | Condition | |
| Goldstorm Pirates (Japan) Location: Left side where Halo used to be Comment: Really expensive in my opinion but where else are you going to find it | £2.00 / £2.00 to continue | Perfect | |
| Jurassic Park Arcade (2015) (International) Location: Left side, against the dodgems railing on the right Comment: The motion doesn't work and it has a 'Motion Stopped' message that doesn't leave through your whole play time. They have the volume pretty low, so it's quite hard to hear what's happening over the other games. Also the guy did come and recalibrate it for us, but the guns completely stopped working the first time we tried to play. | £1.00 / £1.00 to continue | Moderate | |
| Redemption | Price | Condition | |
| Connect 4 Hoops (International) | £1.00 | Perfect | |
| Crossy Road Arcade (International) Comment: Used to have horrible lag at the end of each turn and give free credits. I think it's fixed now though, because it seems to be working fine. | £1.00 | Perfect | |
| Demolition King (International) | £1.00 | Perfect | |
| Down The Clown (International) Comment: This is the slightly different version that doesn't have the guy flying out of the cannon. | £1.00 | Perfect | |
| Flying Tickets (International) | £1.00 | Perfect | |
| Grand Piano Keys (North America) Comment: Works great but the keys feel a bit sticky to touch. | £1.00 | Perfect | |
| Monopoly Roll Down (United Kingdom) | £0.10 | Perfect | |

Log in to add your own comments!they really shuffled the place around, looks like they have a big chunk of the side cleared out for something-or-other? DDR being in a quieter spot is nice but they pushed the pads way up against the screen to fit it so lol equivalent exchange. no idea how it plays i came in to use the gacha and was simply incredulous enough at them finally moving it at all to go looking
At least they finally moved Hungry Hungry Hippos lol
me pad-missing through my whole set to the sound of the loud as fuck dodgems starting siren like "at least it has the touhou folder tho"
i love not being able to my rhythem game instead i love hearing the dodgems
They can't even work out how to change the volume lol the staff know very little about the games they have
yeah lolll. at this point i spend less time playing it and more time partaking in the rite of passage of walking in to see if it's still on hokey 2021 datecode A and walking out. i actually tried emailing once around when the A20+ kits were coming out and never got through lol. judging by the general state of it i doubt they care much
That one is borderline unplayable at this point. You literally can't hear anything over the dodgems. It's also getting pretty unsensitive I've noticed
this DDR cab is what got me into the game and now i just look at it like a bitter ex every time i walk past it to gan to HMV or something. i'm too spoiled by all the other cabs i've played where i can do things like "play even remotely new songs" or "hear the music in a rhythm game". then i remember they nuked the touhou folder in euro A20+ and i relapse
Namco has not confirmed that they’ll be upgrading all cabs after the location test. This info is false.
Just visited yesterday, nice place
lots of places to eat in this mall too. Free parking, a good day trip for some DDRA
