Goodbye Luna City

"The Luna City arcade was a private collection of arcade memorabilia and videogames inside a specially built garage in VA. Due to life circumstances, the collection was shut down and is in the process of going into storage after a large portion was sold. These are photos taken during a documentary shoot to capture the last days of the collection."

Circumstances like this make you take a step back and be thankful for what you have, be it a bedroom with 1 arcade game and a Super Nintendo to a full sized game room like this, because I'm sure Peter never saw this coming. 

You can be on top, and then it all comes crashing down.  I was very envious of Peter, as what he as done is exactly what I wanted to do, but too far out of my range unless I won a lottery. 

I really hate that this happened to him.  as something like this is hard enough to do once in life, and seems impossible to do a second time! 

One thing i know for sure, I could not do over what I've accomplished now, and I'd just die to loose it.   :'(

The one's in these pictures are the (about) 25 Peter kept, at least that's what it says in the KLOV thread.
