Welcome to the TCH Arcade Game and Tournament Shop!

Thanks to a cool plugin for MyBB, we once again feature an Arcade. This is sure to be popular with all of our members - particularly old-timers who remember the one we had back in the day. It's free to use: new members can only play 10 games each day, but everyone else has free use of all of the games :)

However, if you have some spare quarters - sorry, Coffee Credits, lying around, you can purchase certain extras to enhance your arcade experience :)
 
  • Games: If the current selection of games doesn't take your fancy, then head over here and check out the games on there (NOTE: you'll need to be a registered member in order to play the games yourself). If there are any that you'd like to have put up over here, then let us know, and one of the admins will add it for you :) .

    Adding a game costs 500 Coffee Credits if you'd like it to be added for 30 days, or 1500 Coffee Credits if you'd like it to be added permanently. We're not doing "90 days" or "1 year" rates this time: they were never used on Skinny Latte on the old board :P .

  • Game File size (ADDED 05/07/2018): Because some people have been requesting massive games (far larger than I was expecting), I'm unfortunately going to have to introduce limits regarding the file size of uploaded games, so that this arcade doesn't use up all our bandwidth:
     
    • If the game is above 500KB in file size, then it costs double Coffee Credits; 
    • If the game is above 1MB in file size, then it won't be added at all.

    Sorry about this - I just didn't realise how big some of these files were :( .

  • Tournaments: There's also the option to host tournaments for any of our existing games. If you want, you could run it as a contest (where you give a prize to the winner), or you could do it purely for fun if you prefer :)

    If you wish to host a tournament, then pick a game and pay 250 Coffee Credits, and an admin (or Gao) will set up the tournament for you. Do note, however, that you can only have one tournament running at a time!

But, whether you want to add a game, start a tournament, or just play the existing games, we hope you have fun with this :D .
I'll pick up a few for 30 days so I can try them since I'm far too lazy to make an account on that site lol.
If I like 'em I'll pay to get them permanently on here. :P


First up Galaga.
https://community.gamesection.org/games....lay&gid=18
I'm assuming it's the same as the arcade classic.

Same for Wheel of Fortune.
https://community.gamesection.org/games....es&gid=121

Perhaps Pinball will be fun.
https://community.gamesection.org/games....ay&gid=124

https://community.gamesection.org/games....res&gid=25
And this Sonic one I'm hoping will be fun.
All done :)

Sorry about the delay: we've just had more important stuff to set up over the past few days. I'm sure you'll understand!
No problem. :D
So far I'm liking Sonic (I actually used to play it years ago) and Wheel of Fortune so we'll probably upgrade those to permanent.

Galaga and Pinball seem glitchy for me so I'll likely let those go at the end of the month.
(For example, I've had the ball in pinball get so much speed it starts ignoring hitboxes and flies to the pit and I lose a ball.)
OK, I've upgraded those two to permanent for you :)

And, yeah, I agree. Wheel of Fortune is probably my favourite of those four games. Galaga and Pinball are just too fast-paced for my liking: I can't get on with them :( .
I'd like to pay for Candy Crush & I know it's good already so I want to keep it permanently: (the nucleus has it thus the link to there): https://www.nucleusboards.net/arcade.php...lay&gid=19
Done :) !
Going to try some more 30 day runs in a big batch.

Mario Flash
https://community.gamesection.org/games....lay&gid=14
(There's like four so IDK if they're different or not lol.)

Sonic Blox, which if I remember right is Tetris but characters can spawn to break blocks so it's not quite the same.
https://community.gamesection.org/games....lay&gid=26

Air Hockey
https://community.gamesection.org/games....ay&gid=200

Beach Sudoku
https://community.gamesection.org/games....ay&gid=254

Bowling Master
https://community.gamesection.org/games....ay&gid=416

Breakout
https://community.gamesection.org/games....play&gid=8

Bumper Golf
https://community.gamesection.org/games....lay&gid=33

Burger Restaurant
https://community.gamesection.org/games....ay&gid=709

Car Park Chaos
https://community.gamesection.org/games....ay&gid=110

We'll do more after we see how these do. :P
Okay, I think I'm going to have to introduce some new bandwidth rules, because some of these games are massive
  • If the game is above 500KB in file size, then it costs double Coffee Credits; 
  • If the game is above 1MB in file size, then it won't be added at all. 
This means no Mario Flash (over 2MB), and no Burger Restaurant (a whopping 6MB :O ). I'll be nice about Sonic Blox, since it's just over 1MB, but it would cost double CCs (as would Beach Sudoku). The other five games would be fine, though :)

So, I'll leave it up to you to consider what you want to do :) .
