The evolution of games has picked up a great pace. They have progressed from a two-dimensional setting to enjoying the perks of virtual reality. However, one cannot forget the environment of a gaming hub or gaming parlor.

And every person has at least got their hands on one of the gaming machines. Surprisingly, King Charles III didn’t miss the chance when he got one to experience the feeling of an arcade game.

The arcade games, the retro music, and the clinking sounds of the coins in the jackpot machine remain golden moments in the history of gaming. Especially the arcade car racing machine. Going by the video of King Charles enjoying the car racing game, it looks like he surely loved the game with his fellow pupils.

King Charles III did the job, but his partner wasn’t completely impressed

The ten-year-old video shows Prince Charles, now King Charles III, playing an arcade video game. To clarify, the video was taken during his visit to a youth center. The Prince interacted with the pupils from Forest of Teesdale Primary School which had only 13 children.

The children were excited to get the Prince on the video car racing chair. And played a race with him in Sega’s Touring Car Championship. Luke Scott, of age 10, briefed the Prince about the mechanics of the game.

While playing beside each other, the two shared laughter. After this, Luke had some insight into the Prince’s game style. He said that Prince Charles “needed more practice.” Irrespective of what the result of the race was, this interaction makes the visit memorable for both parties.
