Huh. Why that? Couldn’t they make more money if the arcade would be, for example, in the entrance hall?
Anyway. Then we have to change the plan: I first fly to Newcastle and then we both fly back to another (random) country. From there we fly back to Newcastle. With this approach we would be able to play twice!
Or when you say a regular goodbye to a person, and then end up walking in the same direction as them.
In Germany we have a saying that if you meet a person three times in a row (in the way you mentioned), then the other person has to buy you a drink. 
I’d so manipulate that.
Don’t think I ever heard that one.
Well it isn’t thaaaaaat impressive. There’s a few claw machines, Guitar Hero, air hockey (btw I absolutely love air hockey!), and a few driving games. No Dance Dance Revolution 
Nice plan! Los geht’s! 
No, it doesn’t look like that. It’s just an oval-shaped counter and bar seats dotted around in different places, not in a room. It’s right next to the windows, actually. You can watch the planes take off… 
But it’s at least an arcade. Here in my area they have closed or removed all arcades (and arcade games).
Haven’t played that since the 80s!
Is that your all-time-favourite arcade game?
But sounds nice too. I’ll try to remember that - thanks for the tip!
It’s common here in the northern of Germany, but mostly use by older people (= the generation of my parents).
That’s nothing. In Belgium pooping is making love. 
And in Germany we have the similar “poppen” (“popp” is pronounced like “pop” as in “popcorn”).
This website says the same meaning applies in Belgian-Dutch:
http://vlaamswoordenboek.be/definities/term/poepen
“I don’t think the average Fleming poops on the toilet; a Dutchman does. A Fleming likes to poop with two, a Dutchman thinks that a bit gross.”
“The word goes back to 'playing with dolls [=poppen], from which the meaning playing/touching each other developed.”

Most of the time, arcades in the UK are at the seaside. And they have lots of 2p slot machines where you can win keyrings and stuff.
Oh, I just remembered! There’s a big arcade in the Metrocentre shopping centre, not far from Newcastle… 
Absolutely!
Yeah, there’s an arcade in Scheveningen too. It didn’t look too interesting to me last summer tbh, but I played a bit on some of the old-style '70s/'80s arcades in the pier. I had no idea I could fail quite so badly at gaming though. (I mean, how many 50 cents do you think I’m going to keep throwing in that machine? Keep me hooked a little longer before ramping up the difficulty curve to 11, lol.)
On the pier?
No, the (modern) arcade is in this shopping center near the pier (website). But inside the pier there are at least a dozen retro-style arcade cabinets spread about in smaller groups of two to four. Also pinball machines.
English, eh?
sir, you are toasted!
?
My eyes! Mes pauvres yeux!
