Rare Vector Game Collection Acquired

We're thrilled to announce the acquisition of a rare collection of Atari vector games. This includes pristine examples of Tempest, Asteroids, and Battlezone. These games represent a unique era in arcade history, showcasing the vector graphics technology that was cutting-edge in the early 1980s.

Each machine has been carefully inspected and restored by our team of experts. We've preserved the original vector monitors, ensuring that players can experience these games exactly as they were intended, with their crisp, glowing lines creating an otherworldly gaming experience.

These machines will be available for purchase in the coming weeks. Stay tuned for individual listings and the opportunity to own a piece of vector gaming history!

Community Spotlight: Local Arcade Opens

We're excited to share news about "Pixel Paradise," a new arcade that recently opened in Manchester. Owner Sarah Thompson, a long-time customer of ArcadeOverflow.uk, has created a vibrant space filled with both classic and modern arcade games.

Sarah's journey from collector to arcade owner is inspiring. She started with a single Donkey Kong cabinet purchased from us three years ago, and her passion grew from there. Pixel Paradise now boasts over 50 machines, including several rare gems sourced through ArcadeOverflow.uk.

We're proud to have played a part in bringing this new arcade to life and encourage all our customers to visit Pixel Paradise. It's a testament to the enduring appeal of arcade gaming and the strong community that surrounds it.
