"A" for effort. At least the Centipede marquee seems to be hidden behind it.

:)

how did you pinpoint the hidden marquee under all that junk to be a Centipede from this little clue:

I'm not convinced that's a Centipede marquee, it doesn't match up:

Hmmm..... Looks like a Centipede cab, and is definitely not a Dig Dug, Arabian, or Kangaroo marquee. Can't remember if there were other Atari cabs with that shape and those colors on the marquee.

I emailed the person to peel back the paper and see what it looks like. Feel kinda bad about asking them to ruin such a piece of art for the sake of resolving a debate, but sacrifices must be made :)
 
Kangaroo? I am reallllly trying to see that, but can't. Guess I don't have the "artist's eye" for details. Oh well. Maybe the seller will get back to me. :)
 
It clearly has a conversion kit installed yet everyone is stuck on dedicated Atari titles that it obviously isn't.
 
OK, Figured that someone put that overlay there to make it a multicade .... but it does look pretty old. Thinking along those lines.... hmmmmm..... now it is driving me nuts. Someone needs to go there and peel back the paper!!!
 
don't know what it is but it doesn't match kangaroo either - wrong color / shade of blue, & circular yellow thing doesn't exist on kangaroo marquee
 
I've been brainstorming about common conversion kits that were vertical single player games. I've seen that overlay and those stickers before, but maybe they were super generic. Some Romstar game, I'm guessing.
