Whilst i wunt feeling sick used to love the rock'a'plane or rock'a'wheel. Me and my mate did 41 complete rotations none stop! :-\
And the arcade tent! I used to spend hours in there. Had my first Fish Finger when we finished ::) :P
One of my fondest memories of a trip to the sea side, is when you walked into an arcade and heard the legendary...
"Operation... Wolf"
That's sorta etched in my brain now, up there with "Get Ready" from Space Harrior! :)
If I heard them now it'll be like warm apple pie for my ears! ;)

Defender and Sinistar where Sounds that stick in my mind. And i still love the Sound to this day!
I used to like the Sliding shelf machines with the 2p piece's and there was another one with a moon land scape and when the meteor pockets filled up. There was a shit load of coinage came out.
And everyone used to look. I add ask can i have that in pound coins please ;D
Baggey
For me. The sound I remember the most is Galaxians.
Every time I go to the coast and enter any arcade now is just not the same.
If I had the money spare and the space. I'd buy something from Liberty Games (https://www.libertygames.co.uk/).
