Hello Ive never posted here before so i thought i would say hello and ask a question. Does anybody no of any good arcades in Birmingham? The sort with 5p/10p £5 jackpot fruit machines and the like? I know theres the places with £250 jackpot machines but i really dont have the money for that!! Im a student you see!


Thanks in advance!!

If your a student then I would have thought you had more sense than to play at all.

Take it you aren't studying accountancy?

There was a really good one in the swan centre - it had about 40 5p/10p -- £5 jackpot machines - but as the centres being refurbished not sure whether it's still there or will be when it's finished... Apart from that there aren't any mate except Drayton Manor Park..

You on about the megabowl?? If so the machines are rigged in there and there are 4 £35 machines on the bar side if I remember correctly. I keep meaning to try out the casino there though when I get the time.

[mrfishy2002]

There is no reasonable game to be had in Birmingham anymore, shitehole arcades like Shipleys, Nobles and Tivoli on low %'s, all the sharks, dickheads and middle aged women fighting over the same scraps.

Lowest of the low = Cashino (formerly Shipleys) in Bull Street. You'll see what I mean if you go in.
