Retro Replay

Information

Opened 28th September 2019! Used to be on the first and second floor of Castle Quarter but is now only on the first floor.

RR uses a wristband system - pay on entry and all machines are on free play. £12 adults and £9.00 children for entire day.

Left side has the bar as well as both consoles and upright arcade machines lined up by the walls.
- TVs on the wall are set up with Wii U and PS3 among others. The PS3 also has a selection of PS2 games (80+)
- There's a back room that has a line-up of classic consoles (from Atari 2600 to Wii) - ask the staff if you want to play a certain game. There is also a small room with a full dedicated Guitar Hero/Rock Band set up!

Right side is all arcade machines! Majority of cabinets are in very good condition and appear to be maintained often. The front desk also sells merchandise like Pokemon cards, plushes and classic game cartridges/consoles (you don't need to pay for entry to check this area out).
