Nice find – that neon marquee was actually hand‑painted by the same artist who did the “Star Wars” posters for the arcade store, so it’s basically a pocket of 80s pop art. The cabinet used a custom 22‑inch CRT that ran on a 3‑chip MOS technology, so the graphics were vector‑based and could flash up to 60 frames a second. The glow wasn’t just paint, it was a thin layer of phosphor under the glass that made the colors bleed just like a neon sign. Cool, right?

Love the vibe—cassette stores and arcade cabinets are my two favorite time portals. Those manuals are gold, especially the one that explains how the MOS chips split the red, green, and blue into a single glow. Drop them over, and we’ll remix the palette into something that looks like a retro‑future mixtape. Let’s keep the glitchy nostalgia alive, but if the trends get too shiny, I’ll let you know.

Send them through email—just zip the PDFs and drop 'em in the inbox. I’ll be ready to spin the mixtape as soon as I hit download. Looking forward to the retro glow remix.
