I am absolutely the type of retro console nerd who likes to pester visitors with old and new gadgets. Sometimes that means whipping out a modded Game Boy Color when people are trying to talk about football, and in other instances, I'm trying to get friends and family to come look at my Sega Mega Drive collection.
But, now that I've got a Quarter Arcades Bubble Bobble machine to hand, I've acquired a taste for planking the tiny cabinet in front of everyone. It's something of a wicked conversation starter, and while anyone who sees it is initially drawn to its absurdly small controls, they end up won over by how authentic the whole package feels.
