The retro arcade

what a celebration of the eighties,  a time when all the kids were in all the local arcades or chipshops spending their 10p's.

I remember going to the local swimming baths and spending most of the time up in the viewing area playing battlezone and defender and when we were lucky the fair used to come to Kennington park and I used to spend all day on starwars and pacman..what fun.

For the last few years I have been trying to relive those memories playing ms return of the arcade and such like thinking this was the closest I was going to get, until I discovered an emulator called mame which nearly caused an accident in my pants!  This emulates the original games and boasts gameplay by the bucket. On the next page you can download this amazing program and what I consider to be the most influential games of the eighties -please feel free to contact me if you disagree.
