the black light carpet is an awesome idea.  that would make a cool gameroom even if you didn't have a bazillion arcade cabs.

just imagine the juice this guy's pulling to power all that.

ive seen that collection before

it is truly amazing

the carpet and black lights give it a true arcade feel, not mentioning the huge amount of games he has

i would love to have something like that for a collection

Man! It's amazing that all of them look to be in 100% working order. The fully lit Tron console is a rare thing to see as well.

That was one of the coolest things i have ever seen.

I figure Space War would be the rarest of any of those to see fully working.
Was that not the first space game?

Wow. That's freaking awesome...

For another collection, I suggest you check out the April 2005 issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly...Mike Mikka has some impressive stuff too!!!

That's superb, I want one!

Oh yeah and Space War! was in fact the alleged first computer game ever created, back in about 1960.

I thought it was the late 50s?
...
Checking now.....
No your right it was done in 1961

I was thinking of Tennis for Two.
That was done in the 50s and wasn't really much of a game.

True and the first "coin op" was a clone of that called Computer Space.

If memory serves hat was the one i read about that had the stars in the background that was the outline of a woman from one of the Playboy covers.

I could thumb thru my book again to check if someone really wants to know for sure.
