It's funny. I've seen a bunch of posts from people in England and other
parts of Europe post over the last few years about how they can't find new
games. Well, then they're in the wrong places. I lived in London for 3
months and found that they have MORE new games than even NYC. And this
post says one more location is coming. This, Namco's Wonderpark, Funland
in the Troc., Segaworld.... etc. No lack of new games there :) I even
found a place in Barcelona, Spain w/ all the latest releases.... a huge 2
or 3 level amusement complex. America has no exclusive license on the new
stuff :)

No, but in the UK, you live in London, or you get *nothing* new.
