Moscow students unearth lost arcade titles from Russia's past
Seeing as how we're about to re-enter the Cold War, let's try and take our minds off of shooting monkeys into space for a moment and focus on something less cryptic: Soviet-era arcade games!
In a fit of nostalgia, four students from Moscow State Technical University managed to locate 32 machines from Russia's past. Originally built and designed in military factories, Soviet arcade titles were created to provide -- in your best robot voice -- "entertainment and active leisure, as well as the development of visual-estimation abilities."
As of last month, the students opened the Museum of Soviet Arcade Machines in a bomb shelter under their dormitory. Wired has the story, as well as a gallery of these beautiful relics. Take a peek at some of our favorites after the break.
