    The Penultimate Arcade shoot’em up annual for die hard fans this a must have you your gaming book collection.

  2. Florian (verified owner)

    As a child I didn’t have many opportunities to experience the arcade era. With this beautifully illustrated book, I can now make up for it and take a trip down memory lane. The many illustrations in this book give a great impression of the Aracade games of that time.

  3. Wout

    A beautiful, colourful book about some of the coolest arcade shooters!
