Toshi Omagari, Arcade Game Typography

Minstens zo veelbelovend als eerder gepostte documentaire is dit boek over de bijbehorende typografie.

“[…] While Omagari is probably right to propose that his readership is comprised of two circles — game geeks and font nerds — with little to no overlap, I find it a satisfying compendium for anyone occasionally gripped with nostalgia at the sight of a lone Ms. Pac-Man machine, remembering the days when arcades were attached to every movie theater, malls, and boardwalk, zinging with noise and energy and flashing in freeplay mode. Arcade Game Typography is a loving tribute to the part played by design in many a childhood and still many a nerdy adulthood.”
