Ten Pence Arcade Podcast V2.0
A Retro Video Arcade Games podcast, and a continuation of the original Ten Pence Arcade Podcast which ran from January 2013 - June 2024.
Every month Shaun and Alex cover a single old-school game in depth, discussing graphics, sound, game play etc.
We also run the Ten Pence High Score League, a monthly contest where listeners submit their scores on the games we review.
Apart from this there’s arcade banter, musical memories, and biscuits. OMG so many biscuits.

Victor certainly didn’t want to die in Llandudno and Shaun has been viewed 60 thousand times!
We review, without doubt – an arcade game. Or maybe a poor console game that made it’s way into the arcade? Hmm.
Act-Fancer or trapping ‘parts’ in a fridge door? YOU DECIDE.

Shaun has been back to Vulgus with speedy bullits, pouring IPA in to his face and wazzin’ round corners on this show’s daft racing game.
