Video Game Arcade Tours – Pride of Kent (Dover, UK to Calais, France)



Here is a nice surprise for you all! Here we have the ‘Pride of Kent’ video game arcade. The Pride of Kent is a ferry which runs between Dover, UK and Calais, France. Onboard, they have a small video game arcade. When the boat is docked, all power to the arcade is killed, so better finish your game fast towards the end of the journey!

Back on 17-OCT-2009, we held a dance game tournament called: MGI Boat or something like that, playing In The Groove while the boat sailed back and forth from England to France. Amazing memories!

An amusement arcade (often referred to as “video arcade” or simply “arcade”) is a venue where people play arcade games such as video games, pinball machines, electro-mechanical games, redemption games, merchandisers (such as claw cranes), or coin-operated billiards or air hockey tables. In some countries, some types of arcades are also legally permitted to provide gambling machines such as slot machines or pachinko machines. Games are usually housed in cabinets. The term used for ancestors of these venues in the beginning of the 20th century was penny arcades.Video games were introduced in amusement arcades in the late 1970s and were most popular during the golden age of arcade video games, the early 1980s. Arcades became popular with children and particularly adolescents, which led parents to be concerned that video game playing might cause them to skip school.
