My college bar at university had The End by the Doors. I’d put it on and then chuck some money in the Soul Edge arcade machine.
Mint.
On an unrelated note, my old girl used to take me to a local cafe for a slice of toast most mornings - there were two cabinets there.
My first memory of gaming as a three, maybe four year old was Pac Land, 10p a pop, absolute banger of a game - even if the controls were seriously dodgy.
Next to it was Street Fighter II - a premium cab at a whole 20p a credit.
A group of teenagers were playing it one morning, and I popped my 20p in, and I didn't know what the fuck I was doing. This older lad absolutely demolished me, like never even gave a poor kid a chance. Fair play, I learned a lot about going up against skilled opponents that day!
