Since my childhood, my father took me to the movie theater to watch films such as "Aliens." It wasn't my first exposure to outer space-themed movies; prior to that, we had seen "2001: A Space Odyssey," followed by "Star Wars," "The Last Starfighter," and "Close Encounters of the Third Kind." Space has always held a special fascination for me, and for as long as I can remember, I harbored a dream of becoming an astronaut. I believe my father aimed to nurture this aspiration through these cinematic experiences.
While I didn't ultimately become an astronaut, I cherish the memory of my father's favorite film, "Aliens." He passed away a few years ago, leaving me with a deep desire to create an arcade that would serve as a tribute to his memory. One day, a client who has since become a close friend approached me with a request to build another arcade, having previously commissioned a "Jurassic Park" themed one from me. I shared my idea of creating an "Aliens" themed arcade with him, explaining the heartfelt reason behind it.
After hearing the story and the meaningful purpose behind the project, my client decided to go ahead with the "Aliens" arcade theme. He expressed that he would consider himself fortunate to own such a special arcade with such a poignant backstory. After some time, the project reached its completion, and it brings me immense joy to dedicate this arcade to my father. I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Shane for his unwavering support and patience throughout this endeavor. I am delighted that this meaningful arcade has found its rightful owner.
