☆ Time To Fire Up My NEW SUPER PANTENDO! ☆ @Pantendo #Retrogaming #GamersUnite
I'm always looking for inspiration to start building my very own arcade machine and believe me I have found lots of inspiration but my lack of expertise always seems to let me down.
I'd love to create my own arcade machine BUT I want tit to look good and play well. Something shoddy would make me sad.......
Then recently I stumbled across a really cool project by Dean Taylor called "Super Pantendo"
This has reignited my desire to at least complete one arcade project in my lifetime!
Read Dean's story and see if it inspires YOU like it did ME.......

These kind of moments are few and far between but I am going to attempt to share with you my 10 WOW moments that will stick with me forever, when a video game took my breath away (for various reason)
