NAME:
OASIS
TYPE: Alternative Clothing Centre
LOCATION: Corporation Street
Birmingham
COMMENTS: Located opposite the JD Wetherspoons pub `The Square Peg` is one of the many entrances to `Oasis` which is a huge collection of alternative clothing,body piercing and jewelry stalls all located in a building with many floors,if your in to the rock/goth scene you would be hard pushed not to find what your looking for here. Anyway on to the games!....at first they were located in a narrow compartment in the cafe/diner area located on a higher level towards the back of the building which had a sort of balcony you could see the shoppers below. I remember if you entered Oasis from the market area at the rear you turned left straight up a flight of stairs and the games were located there,later the number of video games increased and they were all moved down stairs into a larger area of their own but at this point i only recall visiting a few more times as the `Street Fighter` games started to get more numerous and this was not a good time for us in video game history as these games were like a boring repetitive plague.So there have been SF games here but as i did not pay too much attention at the time i have not listed them below,i am not 100% sure exactly which SF games but it was the early games probably SF2,SF2 CE,SF2 hyper Fighting,etc.
