About On the Table Arkaadilaud
See arkaadstiilis videomängukonsool on mõeldud 1980-ndate ja 1990-ndate klassikaliste videomängude mängimiseks ning suunatud täiskasvanutele, kes nende mängudega üles kasvasid. Kuigi tavaline mängukonsool ei pruugi rafineeritud interjööri täiendada, pakub see disain multifunktsionaalset alternatiivi. Kui konsooli mängimiseks ei kasutata, muutub see stiilseks kaasaegseks diivanilauaks, võimaldades sel sulanduda sujuvalt tänapäevastesse elamispindadesse.

- Unique Properties
- This is an arcade-styled video game console to play vintage video games from the 80's and 90's, and it is dedicated to adults who grew up with those video games in their childhood. However, having a normal vintage video game console could ruin the ambience of your sophisticated living room. Here is a solution. This is not just a game console, but it transforms to a stylish modern coffee table when it is not played.

- Operation Flow
