    If I could go back, even for a moment, to the mid-90s era of coin-operated arcades, I would seek the closest facsimile to Nosebleed Interactive’s arcade that is so perfectly constructed within Arcade Paradise VR. Until a time machine becomes available, I’ll settle for putting on my PSVR2 and playing some familiar arcade titles that translate pretty darn well in the VR space, Sense controllers and all.

    Arcade Paradise VR lets you run your own business while enjoying classic games of the yesteryears, complete with comfort options to alleviate most hassles when playing VR titles for prolonged periods.

    Nostalgic, immersive, and highly acclaimed, Arcade Paradise is a beautiful trip back in time that captivates with its wide variety of content. Never has the routine in a laundromat been so fun, although at times it can be boring, tiring, or tedious to have to work too much.

    With the foundations of Arcade Paradise well and truly intact and even some subtle improvements to the game’s economy, the VR experience elevates many aspects of the base game. However, with some difficulty in its controls, some jarring flat screen moments and a few bugs this isn’t quite the new way to play.

    I wish that Arcade Paradise VR tightened up the campaign a lot more because its slow burn simply doesn't work as well in VR.
