A great Stinger Report this week, I highly recommend you check it out, but here’s a few snippets to wet the appetite….

Trocadero, Piccadilly Circus

The ex-SEGA World facility sits at one of the largest and busiest foot traffic locations in
Europe. The site is a battleground of ambitious aspirations and poor business sense. The site is in fact four venues in one. The famous Funland two-floor arcade venue — as old as the 1980’s refurbishment of the Trocadero, the site was mothballed while SEGA opened, floundered and failed — only to reopen their Funland venue and repopulate three of the six levels of the failed SEGA site as their own.

NamcoStation, County Hall, Westminster

The flagship venue in the Namco Bandai Europe arsenal of
UK sites, the venue offering the second-best foot traffic in London for an amusement site. The London Eye attraction generating a vast tourist trade, linked to the Westminster Bridgeand Houses of Parliament location. The venue is shared with the only McDonalds fast food restaurant in the area, adding to the generated audience.
