Games

Music GamePriceCondition
DanceDanceRevolution X2 (Europe)
Location: At the entrance.
Comment: The player 2 side works, but the panels feel very sunken. They also are somehow missing the arrows. It's much more playable than the X over the road, but it is still in awful condition. To make things worse, the horses make it impossible to hear when a race starts (see photos).
£1.00 for 3 songsBad
RacingPriceCondition
GRID (Twin Cab 2P) (International)
Location: Back of the arcade.
£1.00Perfect
Initial D Arcade Stage 3 (International)
Location: To the right of the pier's entrance,
Comment: Out of order (possibly due to COVID?). Not a proper sitdown machine, a massive 'Cycraft' simulator. You can't use manual as there's no gear shifter on these, and card functions are disabled. A fun distraction though.
£2.00Perfect
NASCAR Racing (International)
Comment: Only one out of the two cabinets was on.
£1.00Great
Need for Speed: Carbon (International)
Comment: Only one out of two cabinets turned on.
£1.00Great
Rail ShooterPriceCondition
Razing Storm (International)
Location: Behind X2
Comment: One of the best machines I've ever played. Really good LCD conversion.
£1.00Perfect
Sharpshooter (International)
Comment: It's not even actually Sharpshooter. I'm assuming the PC for the game died, so it runs a custom game. All that happens is you press start and a target comes up. The number on the target changes and you shoot it to stop it. The number it stops on is how many tickets you get. It has random pictures of Blackpool while you play.
£0.50Bad
Shoot 'em upPriceCondition
Space Invaders Frenzy (North America)
Comment: Just beware that the machine only gives you 50 tickets... So basically, don't bother playing on this machine. But it's all working and in great condition from what I know of.
£1.00Great

Did you try it? We were in BP tonight, but only down at South Pier as hadn't gone there yesterday, and got there quite late. Did you try the Cycraft too? I suck at it haha

Hopefully the cab accepts 50p coins, I don't think many people will have an old £1 coin on them now lol
