Just moved to London...

Postby c0nn0r » Mon Jul 12, 2021 8:19 am

Hey guys,

I just took the plunge and have become a home owner. Moved to London, which is nice, and I'm currently setting up my office/gameroom. Anyone familiar with the area have any tips or knowledge about arcade gaming in the London area? Any arcades or barcades here?

I remember Ace arcade but it's been a long time since they existed. We used to have an arcade calls Wizards as well but that closed before I was old enough to go.

No Arcades anymore that I'm aware of and nobody one has tried to open a barcade as of yet.

Very interesting!

I saw a London location for Tilt listed on Google maps already. Can you share any links to announcements? Any idea of opening date?

At the moment they have not said much, updates will probably be posted on their website and the ontario pinball/arcade and beyond facebook group

I saw the announcement from Tilt on FB. Looks like it was posted over the weekend - they are hiring for various roles. Think they need a quarter-man? :mrgreen:
