£5 Jackpot AWP machines in London

I stopped playing machines in 2006 on the whole but I am down in London for a few days on work and wondered if there are any arcades here which have a good selection for a bit of entertainment.

Any ideas?

5 quid?.....Best advice dont bother. Use your spare time and cash on a Thai bird

I don't think the trocadero is around anymore, so i can't think of anywhere.

Trocadero still has a few £5ers. They're quite well hidden in a rather sorry looking room at the lower back of the complex. Then you've got the Namco station over the other side of Westminster Bridge (away from Big Ben). Family leisure have a few £5ers in their arcades. Try the ones on Wardour Street going into the Chinese bit and Charing Cross Road. Not sure about the others.

Some of the arcades around Leicester Square have £5 jackpots in their downstairs bits.

My favourite is Star Wars A New Hope. Not because I think it plays well, but I just love the sound effect every time I put a pound in. C3P0 goes "Hello, and welcome to Star Wars". Awesome.

wouldn't bother with the namco westminister , 95% ticket redemption bollocks ,,,,,,,,,,,,, but hey if you have a decent method and can amass 20 thousand , then you can get an alba radio , with perhaps a few left over for a badge and some crayons.

I just wondered if there were any places that have some old machines, esp Reds, on £5 JP. I know the best places are the likes of Luton Airport, of Seaside resorts but just wondered if there were any around here. I am not looking to try and make any money.
