OLBG looked at the 50 most populated towns and cities in the UK, to find the best and worst places to visit for arcades.
To do this, they looked at Google and Yelp ratings to determine the best and worst places for arcades.
The top 10 destinations for arcades included Newcastle, Glasgow, Plymouth, Stoke-on-Trent, Bolton, Birmingham, Bradford, Norwich, Blackpool, and Nottingham.
The worst 10 included Portsmouth, Warrington, Dundee, Aberdeen, Coventry, Swansea, Edinburgh, Birkenhead, Luton, and Belfast.
Warrington came second on the list of worst places in the UK for arcade destinations.

The Editor-In-Chief at OLBG, Steve Madgwick, said: "Brits love to play arcade games, and plenty of loose change has been spent in these establishments over the years.
"Millions of visits are recorded each year and around £850m is believed to contribute to the UK’s annual turnover both at the coast and in the cities.
"Whether you’re looking to gain more money or win a toy, amusement arcades are a great form of entertainment."
Mr Madgwick also made special mention of the top and bottom cities in the list.
He said: "Newcastle-upon-Tyne is at the top of our list scoring 4.64/5 based on impressive Google and Yelp listings.
"NQ64 helped the city rise to the top of the listings, and is no surprise as the establishment offers interactive, retro games and cocktails; there is fun for all the family.
