Arcade spots in Norway?

Post by wuuds »

So I've moved to Oslo recently and I was wondering if there are any other people from Norway on the forum?

Found a bar in Oslo called Tilt which has a whole bunch of 90s pinball machines and 3 arcade cabs in the back (1 upright 2 cocktail style). I didn't have the time to have a proper look around but one of the cabinets was Galaxian. I'm going back sometimes this week and then I'll take some pics.

Anyone know of any other spots where one could play on some arcade machines?

The arcades was abandoned in Norway long time ago.

That's a pity :(
So there aren't any other places like Tilt? Small places that have a cab or two? If that's the case then I think I'll be going there often as long as it's still standing.

Can't help you there buddy.
I've only been to Oslo like 3 times. Never saw a single arcade cabinet.

We had a fairly good convention here in Sandnes few months ago, about the gaming history, called Game On 2.0.
There was a few arcades there to play.

Here's some picture of that: http://www.flickr.com/photos/raidenvipe ... 746411289/

My friend's friend owns Tilt. I'll ask him for more details on other places.

Sounds really cool to be honest. Great pictures! Those old cabs look so interesting.

Really? That'd be awesome. Going to Tilt on the weekend sometime to have a better look at everything. Seems like the nicest bar/pub I've seen so far. Although I was staring at the people playing 'shuffleboard'. Never seen that game before
