NOS arcade artwork photos added

I snagged some of the photos from QuarterArcade.com’s auctions for the warehouse arcade game artwork auctions on eBaby and added them to the NOS artwork gallery. If you don’t plan on bidding, but just want to see more images of the newly uncovered and unrolled cabinet artwork, check out that gallery again.

Value of NOS Mappy and Food Fight bezels

There have been a couple of auctions on eBay over the past two weeks that have gotten arcade game collectors attention. There were of course the two different classic Atari Computer Space games that both went for over $10,000, and there were also the NOS (new old stock) Bally Mappy and Atari Food Fight bezels that were found in an old operator’s warehouse in California. The final price of the Mappy bezel was $271.55 ($255+$16.55 shipping), and the Atari Food Fight was $277.05 ($260.55+$16.55 Shipping)! Wow! How can one brand new, mint condition piece of any arcade game bring so much coin? Well, let’s look at it a little bit.

List of arcade artwork reproductions – Finished, Out of Stock / In Stock

I saw Jeff Phillips post about arcade websites with reproduction control panel overlays, and I thought to myself, you know what would make an awesome post? How about a list of all reproduction arcade artwork that was ever produced? It could be a master list to record what piece of artwork was printed, screen vs. inkjet, how many, who printed them, etc. etc. Please help me fill it out.

NOS Sega Pengo sideart arrives

I didn’t think that the artwork would arrive so soon, but the Pengo sideart arrived on my doorstep this afternoon. Hans came across these two pieces of NOS right side Pengo artwork in Chicago and posted about them on Klov a couple days back. I was lucky enough to get a hold of them. (Warning 😉 token canned food NOS arcade artwork photo ahead)

New Jr. Pac-man Registry entry

Just a quick post, I updated the Jr. Pac-man arcade game registry with Anthony Pietrak’s Jr. Pac-man this afternoon. I had him on the phone and he took a look really quick at the serial number on the back of his cabinet. From what he says, of the 3-4 that he has had, this is the nicest looking Jr. Pac-man he’s seen.

New Donkey Kong 2 Webpage Design

Soon after I posted about developing some arcade blog wordpress themes, Rich at This Old Game had expressed some interest in having me do a design for his Donkey Kong 2 artwork package page. Today, I quickly designed and coded that page from scratch and it is now online at Thisoldgame.com
