@ausretrogamer Interesting! Was this to save space at the top end of the cabinet?
@ben_304 good question. The machine is quite bulky, so I have no idea.
@ryanmestric @RetroCorps a good question to ask @TaitoCorp :)
@RetroCorps @ausretrogamer I'm guessing it gave the cabinets a lower center of gravity, to make them less prone to tipping.
@Mighty_JAK that definitely sounds plausible. @RetroCorps
@RetroCorps @ausretrogamer Possibly both. I think they may have used that lower center of gravity to make the cabs taller though, ... 1/2
@RetroCorps @ausretrogamer 2/2 because I remember having to stand on a stool to play Space Invaders when I was a tot, but not other games.
@RetroCorps the cabinets were quite deep actually. The gradient of the mirror takes up a lot of room. @Mighty_JAK
