Looks like 20 minutes after the acid kicks in. Kind of cool though.

I think anything that one finds pleasing could be called art. Here are a couple edits of my first plant

Lol, yeah I like those originals. I also have DK jr, Galaga, Zaxxon etc, basically all the originals. Than there are the original Nintendos, I have a bunch of those. I used to rebuild full size ones for a hobby so I have a dozen of those including a couple table top sit down ones and a pinball machine I rebuilt. The big one in middle of pic I built from the ground up, it has every arcade game in it plus Nintendo, super Nintendo, N64, Sega, laser disk and pinball games. Has a couple guns wired in, a trackball, spinner, side buttons for pinball and a light up control panel. This is what happens when an IT guy has too much time on his hands because his wife got stuck on an evening shift for a while, lol. I am lucky to have such an understanding wife.

Nice! One of my favorite pinball games was Funhouse from the early 90's. That game got intense lol. Favorite sitdown arcade as a kid was definitely Tapper where you played the bartender. 80s/early 90's arcades had some really great games. Sk8 or die, Shinobi, kungfu master, spy hunter, mortal kombat,rampage. Thats just off the top of my head. I still remember the thrill of walking into an arcade and seeing the rows of standups. I dont think i could find an arcade now if i looked.

No Missile Command, Asteroids, or Space Invaders? Centipede and Tempest were cool as well.
Put me in front of a pinball machine and I'll win a free credit every time. I was playing Captain Fantastic and Tommy back in the seventies.

The middle arcade game has every arcade game ever made and I installed a track ball for Asteroids, Missile Command and Centipede. There is also a spinner installed for Tempest. Here is a bad video I made when I first put it together in 2013.
As for Pinball I only kept one I worked on because it was made in 1971 like me and I love fishing. I was going to put it in my cottage but it it too damp for an old school pinball there, it's electro mechanical so I would always be sanding contacts every year and my retirement home keeps be busy enough when I go there on my few weeks holidays. It's a 1971 Bally Mariner. I loved the graphics on it. I didn't bother converting it, she takes dimes.
