We’ve just been sent details of our inclusion in House Magazine. A great high-end property magazine covering a whole range of subjects, including interior design. Our first entry is nestled in on the same page as the sweet looking face warmer.
Some of you may have seen this, or even had a play on it last year at Replay in Blackpool. Well, it’s now officially released!
Based around the 60-in-1 arcade board, this baby is our entry-level system in our arcade table range. It is equally as well designed, built and finished as our other arcade tables but uses a dedicated arcade PCB rather than a PC system. So you just plug it in, turn it on and you’re away. Available in Walnut only.
Take a look at the specs and games list on our website and view more photos.
The new surface tension Dual arcade table. Available to buy now for £1999, including shipping within England. Get in contact for other areas.
We got a bunch of friends round over the weekend and took a whole load of photos for surface tension‘s forthcoming ‘Dual’ arcade table which will be available in early September. Partying around a coffee table under bright lights is definitely the way to spend a Saturday!
I didn’t get much time to play it myself, but it was hard getting certain people off it! Either that or they loved having their photo taken!
This is the new two-player head-to-head model sporting 60 classic arcade games.
You can find a few more photos on our facebook page and get in touch with us there. Or you can drop us a message via the website.
surface tension will be at r3play – the arcade, retro and video gaming expo in Blackpool on the 6th and 7th November.
R3PLAY is a brand new show celebrating four decades of gaming history. Presented in association with Retro Gamer and gamesTM magazines, this unique event will offer gamers of all ages the chance to experience gaming systems from the 1970s to present day.
Hosted by TV personality and videogame fanatic Gail Porter, the R3PLAY Expo will take place at The Norbreck Castle Exhibition Centre in Blackpool on 6/7 November 2010 – the final weekend of this year’s famous Illuminations.
So if you’re up in Blackpool for the weekend, live in that neck of the woods or want to discuss any possibilities, come see us on the stand on the Saturday or Sunday.
If you are looking to get your hands on the surface tension Double7 arcade table, you now have a choice of colours to personalise your control panel. Still the same high quality laser-cut, anodised and screen printed aluminium panel, but now available in blue and red, as well as black and silver.
We can also produce custom control panels if you want something different again.
The website has now been updated to include the new surface tension arcade table. The existing table has taken on the name of Double7 and the new table is called the Arcane giving customers a design preference. The only real difference is the Arcane has a slightly longer control panel which houses a spinner alongside the existing controls. There aren’t any pictures of this on the site yet, but they shouldn’t be too far away.
We’ve recently been down at Patrick’s bar in Parkstone, Bournemouth running a photo shoot for the new table. It’s not going to replace the existing system, but offer an alternative for those with different tastes. The website should be updated soon, but in the mean time here’s a few images to keep you going…
Well, it’s taken me a few days to get around to posting about the show. All in all it was a great success. Alan, Grant and their team did a great job in getting all the machines together. On the day (well, the day before) it seemed everything was against them and the show was almost a non-starter. All of the Egrets were stuck at customs and after being released late on the Friday afternoon, half of them reached their destination at about 9 o’clock at night. The rest of them were due in at 6am Saturday! When we arrived at 11pm on Friday to set up, the electrician was setting up the supply for the hall whilst PCBs were installed in the machines. It was an all-nighter for most of the IC’09 team.
Well it’s just over 2 weeks away now. The first Insert Coin arcade show will be held in Northampton at Northampton Saints on the 18th and 19th July.
It is 2 days of gaming, events, tournaments and prizes. There will be a couple of candy cabs up for grabs, a tech repair talk, PCB and spare parts for sale and much more.
surface tension will have a stand there. Come say hi and have a seat on the couch for a game of Track & Field!
If you pre-order your ticket online, you can gain entry at 10:00 rather than 12:00.
