Photo montage courtesy of Gabriel McGrath, showing a combined arcade and bowling alley. Click for the full-sized version! Gabe also spoke regarding the combination of cinemas and arcades: We've always had arcades with cinemas. The only arcade left here in Newcastle is part of a cinema. "Pure arcades" are a dying breed. The ones in cinemas are often run by clueless people who don't maintain their machines that well.
