About On the Table Arkādes galds
Šī arkādes stila videospēļu konsole ir izstrādāta, lai spēlētu klasiskas 1980. un 1990. gadu videospēles, un tā ir paredzēta pieaugušajiem, kuri auguši kopā ar šīm spēlēm. Kamēr parasta spēļu konsole var nepiestāvēt izsmalcinātam interjeram, šis dizains piedāvā daudzfunkcionālu alternatīvu. Kad tā netiek izmantota spēlēšanai, konsole pārvēršas par stilīgu, mūsdienīgu kafijas galdiņu, ļaujot tai nevainojami iekļauties laikmetīgā dzīvojamā telpā.
