You'd think he'd never played it before or something. ;)

Piccadilly Circus.

Interestingly, also the name of an arcade at the shopping mall near me 
when I was growing up.  Never got to go there - my dad couldn't see the 
sense in spending money in an arcade on something so nonessential as 
entertainment.

My older half-brother used to give us bicentennial quarters (which were 
supposed to be good luck for kids playing arcade games), and we never 
actually got to use them for the intended purpose.
