Ultimate 80’s Arcade

Monday, February 4th, 2008

Peter Hirshberg has built his own private video game heaven. The arcade is in a separate 60 foot x 40 foot 2 story building next to his house, has about 60 class game cabinets, 10 pinball machines, a killer collection of classic posters, glow in the dark space-scene carpet, and even change machines and a payphone. Awesome.

Check out the whole collection with a ton more pics and tons of information on how he put it all together at peterhirschberg.com.
