Hey, I'm going to London for a week or so in September (7th-15th) & I was wondering if anyone had suggestions for arcades or retro games shops. Also, any recommendations on pubs, restaurants or other things to see would be appreciated as well. I'm not picky, so I welcome any & all suggestions. Any notorious tourist traps to stay away from? Like, is the changing of the guard worth it? I'm so angry I missed out on this: http://www.thrillist.com/entertainm...ngs-you-sega-consoles-cocktails-in-shoreditch If they only scheduled it a month later...
I've never been, but I suggest to pick up a copy of Retro Gamer magazine. The back pages of that mag are loaded with ads for retro game shops, one or more of them would surely be in a convenient place for you.
