Arcade Archive is a museum designed to take you on a journey back to the golden age of video arcade history.

Arcade Archive is no ordinary retro arcade experience. Journey from the very beginnings of the coin-op with our Computer Space and Space Race replicas, through to legendary video game arcades like a 1978 Space Invaders cabinet.

Games of historical significance from the ‘70s, ‘80s and early ‘90s are present, including Star Wars, which showcases 3D and colour vector graphics. and Missile Command demonstrating trackball controllers; Track & Field for button-pounding competitive esports; Outrun and Super Hang-On, with cutting edge sprite scaling technology for the period and realistic steering controllers; four-player co-operative gaming with Gauntlet II; and many more classics. All games are free to play.

We aim to present each cabinet as authentically as possible with CRT displays and original arcade hardware. Information is provided to educate and inform of each game's significance, and our team are on hand with his in-depth knowledge to gladly provide more information where necessary.

The Arcade Archive team are always repairing, restoring and inducting new machines into the museum, and you’ll have an opportunity to see our restorations in progress and discuss our methods during your visit.

We look forward to welcoming you into the Arcade Archive.
