Office Arcade machine

[Chrisc]

Good afternoon Clockers,

I have been tasked to find our newly refurbished office an Arcade machine, obviously I can just google arcade machines and find one, but to be honest I don't have much (If any) experience with them.

So I am branching out for help..

We are a very diverse office With multiple nationalities and split very evenly between Male / female, so it would be ideal for it to be something anybody can pick up and play with minimal learning curve.

Any suggestions on machines themselves or reputable websites, would be greatly appreciated.

***EDIT*** Budget is up to around £700

Cheers

I would have thought there would be machines that function like emulators, where multiple games are loaded and can be selected.

Pac-Man, or if the name is offensive you can scribble out the “man” and put “them”.

Multiple games on one machine will certainly be considered.

I had a feeling that posting this in 'General' could be a mistake

Pacman

Wait, that's sexists.

Space Invader, wait, that's discriminating to aliens.

Good luck!

Pinball.

Pac-Man is actually quite rubbish.

As for my votes:
Joust
Bubble Bobble or Snow Bros
The Simpsons or Cadillacs & Dinosaurs
Operation Wolf
Outrun

Street Fighter 2.

Multiple nationalities are represented, and it has different gender characters.

Can't go wrong!

Honestly I'd get something like Point Blank

Time crisis? One of those ride on bike racer ones? Some kind of whack-a-mole? All very suitable to an office if you ask me.

Pinball.

Nobody wants to be a pinball wizard, he's got such a supple wrist.

You going to want some slot machines, 10p, 2p penny pushers. Along with some teddy grabbing machines and some high jackpot bandits.

That should do it.
