- Tranquility Base Arcade
- A chance purchase of a Super Chexx Hockey game eventually led to the creation of Tranquility Base Arcade. I played video games during the 1970's and early 1980's and was always in awe of the “cutting edge technology” which I tried to duplicate at home by buying an Atari 2600 and then an Atari 800. Even with the home units it was still a special thrill when I had a few quarters to spend and walked into an arcade to play the "real games." They always seemed larger than life. Fast forward through college, marriage, kids, etc. and I had long forgotten the special memories I had of that period. A single quarter drop into my newly acquired Super Chexx game and I was instantly transported back to that era. It was like I had just inserted a quarter into a time machine. Join me on my journey of recreating a small part of my childhood through the construction and continued maintenance of Tranquility Base Arcade.
