Smålands Spelhall

Very nice experience! You definitely need 3h minimum:

Great to finally visit! I've been wanting to for years and finally got to for Nordic Flower Cup. Seriously, shoutouts to Jesper for putting it all together!nOut of every arcade I've been to this has to be one of my favorites, definitely my favorite one in Europe. Most of the machines were well maintained, and if they had issues it was usually signposted on the machine so you knew what you were getting into, though the Wangan Midnight machine that was on seemed to have a slight issue with the steering wheel being a bit off-axis, but the game was still completely playable despite this.nGreat variety in the machines available too, with everything from Pinball machines to arcade classics to modern rhythm games and other imports from Japan.nThe café is also a nice space to take a break in when it gets a little loud in the arcade which to be fair is a lot better than some other arcades I've visited where the volume level genuinely seemed a bit dangerous. The staff are also all super nice and accomodating and down for a chat when they aren't busy.nBeing there during a bit of a special event I might not have gotten a great impression of how it is during regular operation, but I left with a great impression and hope to come back another time. Be it for another NFC or just for a regular visit!

Lovely arcade place, Freeplay based on time. The bulk of the games are rhythm games though there are various other genres dotted throughout. There's even a Darius Burst cabinet! A fun day out for sure! We arrived just as it opened so it was quiet. Lots of guests later in the day.

They say I play a pretty mean pinball. Who?

As a lover of arcade video games and especially rhythm games I knew I had to come here when I noticed that I will be staying somewhat near Växjö on my vacation.nnI was very happy to see all the cabs in a really good condition, not to mention the awesome and big variety of games and pinball machines. Also the staff was really nice and helpful which is always a huge plus in my book : All in all it was an awesome arcade experience.nnMuch kudos, can only recommend checking this place out if you're in the vicinity!
