    Do you mean just a place to play? Like an arcade?

    Dr. Quirkeys on O Connell street was always the place to go. Full of ..er...undesirables though.

    If you're up for the trip, Star amusements on Bray seafront is good.

    Now reading it, it does seem like he wants an Arcade rather then a arcade to buy,

    Ive been to both the one in bray and quirkey's both excellent for ireland, though if your ever in london go to Picadilly and to trocodero, has all the latest fighter, ssf2, ect... mvc2. a hardcore gamers paradise.

    I couldn't believe the arcades around Piccadilly. There was one in China town, full of Asian girls..playing videogames..and if I remember corrently, there were candy cabs too..

    *sigh*

    Over here we have chavs playing dance games.

    It's just not the same thing!!!

    Seriously? Nice one! I go to London quite regularly and have been trying to figure out something I can buy there that I can't get here.

    That'd be great.

    in london i can get literally any retro game, i have alot of contacts, for arcade and consoles, in ireland it is very very limited, like once i went into westend of london and came back with ssf2,tumblepop,dodgeball, pc engine for about 25 euro, and got marvel vs capcom 2 and capcom vs snk 2 dreamcast for 7euro. London is much better for gaming,
