Not only did John come up with a unique theme for an arcade cabinet, but he also went the extra mile literally "sculpting" custom pieces for his build.

Retro Space Cabinet This cabinet has been generating a lot of blog time this week hitting all the popular techy sites causing several oohs and ahhs along with some silent nods.

The name of the cabinet is Retro Space and its creator is Martijn Koch.

His website says "As a homage to the video arcade era, and especially to honour the design of the first ever arcade cabinet, I created "Retro Space."   The perfect machine to mark the end of this marvellous time in gaming history.  Either as art or as the ultimate gaming gadget." 

So the gist is, this is a direct tribute to the original Computer Space design, long held to be one of the first video arcade cabinets created.
