Nice looking, but - hmm :/ https://www.lovehulten.com/uploads/3/0/4/8/30489724/pk42-14_...

It took me awhile to realize what was wrong. However, they did have one further up that showed the joystick unscrewed. I'm hoping the same happens for that one. https://www.lovehulten.com/uploads/3/0/4/8/30489724/ef4f4_or...

No no, that is not the problem I was thinking of. Hint: what is displayed on the screen?

Street Fighter II I think?

Not enough buttons?

Yes. I’m surprised this was so difficult for people to pick out for a game as well known as SFII.

Could be photoshopped but might also be a CRT shader.

A game in the process of being played on a console with no users? Is that what you mean? I'm not too familiar with Street Fighter to know if that's the case, in my eyes it could be a display game automatically playing.

Explain yourself!

Street Fighter II is a classic of the fighter genre and is the principal example of the 6 button fighter.

If the marketing rendering was as closely attentive to detail as the item themselves there are plenty of 4 button fighters that could have been used. It’s so obvious that I wouldn’t be surprised if it is an intentional troll.

Thanks for clarifying.

To be honest I haven't played Street Fighter much so I didn't know.

That, and when I play arcade games I normally have a full QWERTY keyboard...

To me, it looks like a reference to a Braun phonosuper sk 4. https://braunaudio.de/en/snowwhitecoffin-sk4-dieter-rams-han...
