If heading to the seafront from Great Yarmouth town via Regent Road, Majestic Amusements is the first arcade visitors will encounter on the town-side of the Golden Mile. It is located next door to the iconic Empire building.
It is brightly decorated and has recently had a full renovation with an internal revamp and modern machines being added.
Older generations may remember it as a bright orange building with an arcade prize bingo section, though this has been replaced now by a range of modern ticket machines, coin pushers and crane claw grabbers.
It has a welcoming atmosphere and lots of young kiddie rides out front to tempt passers by to enter. There is also a boxing punch machine with football kicker for the sportier adults.
Coin Pushers
In the main front section, players can find a range of modern coin pushers with tickets for prizes. There are great shelf prizes to win including toys, ornaments, golden eggs and even £5 pound notes.
Themed coin pushers include Minions, Monopoly, Aladdin, Clockwork Orange and Tom & Jerry tuppenny pushers, most paying out ticket wins.
Conveniently, there are also many 2p change machines dotted around the venue so patrons can easily exchange coins and notes for more coin pusher ammo.
There are also lots of ticket awarding fairground games machines. These include aiming, throwing games such as Down the Clown and Tower of Terror roll-down ticket machines. There are also basketball arcade games for the competitive.
Claw Machines
Along the right-hand side wall is an impressive row of crane claw machines with a great range of different plush toys and teddies to be won. Follow these down to the ticket window / prize shop, which is situated at the rear right-hand corner of the venue.
There is a great range of prizes on display here and with so many machines paying out in tickets there is really a strong change to win a quality prize. Another thing we love about Majestic is that they provide large basket bins for keen players to hold their tickets in, whilst they are hitting big ticket wins and moving around the venue.

£5 Jackpot Fruit Machines
In the front left-hand side of the venue is a section dedicated to £5 jackpot fruit machines. Here there are single machines dotted around in between bigger modern triple machines. There are lots of comfy chairs in this section so players can spend time here in comfort.
Standalone £5 jackpot fruit machines include the original Cash Lab, Monopoly, Adders and Ladders and Deal or No Deal. Triple row £5 jackpot machines include Batman Begins, Bullion Bars, Party Time and Lady Luck Moonstruck – all with upper feature boards!
Casino Slots Lounge
To the rear of the venue is the adult casino slots area, which has a funny layout that has lots of different sections for those who want to play in peace.
Deceptively large, there is a huge range of digital casino slots offering all the latest games to play here from providers including Blueprint Gaming, Vantage and more.
Players can win a huge range of prizes depending on the stake and these go right up to £500 jackpots!
There are also several large triple-row machines, including a Rainbow Riches Community Spins sit-down triple, a Treasury Bullion Bars with an upper feature, and sit-down versions of Party Time and Bullion Bars. Additionally, there is another Batman Begins triple offering a £100 jackpot.
One can also find many standalone retro and classic slot machines including Bar-X style machines and vintage video poker machines.
If traditional British fruit machines are more your cup of tea, then there are a couple dotted around the adult section including Starfish Troopers from Empire Games.
Venue Verdict
They have really transformed this arcade with the revamp, and it has a great range of different types of machines for all the family.
Don't be fooled, Majestic is a very large venue inside and it is packed with some of the latest and greatest machines. We particularly enjoy the great range of £5 jackpot fruit machines they have on offer here, making it a well-balanced venue for all to enjoy.
