I absolutely adore this magazine! It's not cheap in the US, but it's absolutely worth it.

Retro Gamer Book of Arcade Classics  :P
If you buy the magazine regularly you've probably read most of these articles.

A book about arcade classics that has a freaking MK cab on page 1.

Looks pretty nice.

They score with the 2 pages about Pong. That score is there for a reason..... ;)

Haha....Well I tried to zoom in on the video but it was so blurry I couldn't actually see what it was but the cab shape reminded me of MK or SF, at least a late 80s game....

I'd say turtles is even less classic then MK :)

You're a MK fan ? Well so I am I !!!! Mark King is the best bass player in the world, hey my handle is Level 42 for a reason ;);););););)

The Retro-Gamer Mag in general is worth the money.
I orderd the arcade issue 4 days ago but it`s not here yet (UK-->Germany)
Will report once i have it in my hands.
