Martin's Snow Bros Nova bartop

Martin sent us his Nova bartop with curved pedestal from Coín (Málaga, Spain), decorated with the Snow Bros vinyls: the game he played as a kid with his brothers and now shares with his own children. The kit is raw MDF painted black, with pink U-molding, acrylics on the marquee and the screen, and controls for two players.

Inside there is a PC built around a recycled Intel Core i3 and a 4:3 monitor, to keep the games’ original aspect ratio.
