About On the Table Primary Function: Arcade na Mesa
Book Text: Ang video game console na ito na may istilong arcade ay dinisenyo upang paglaruan ang mga klasikong video game mula noong dekada 1980 at 1990, at nakalaan para sa mga nasa hustong gulang na lumaki kasama ng mga larong iyon. Bagaman maaaring hindi bagay ang isang karaniwang game console sa isang pino at eleganteng interyor, nag-aalok ang disenyong ito ng isang multifunctional na alternatibo. Kapag hindi ginagamit para sa paglalaro, nagbabagong-anyo ang console tungo sa isang naka-istilo at modernong coffee table, na nagpapahintulot dito na tuluyang maisanib sa mga kontemporaryong espasyong tirahan.
