Specialist publisher Read-Only Memory, the team behind A+ books such as the Sega Genesis Collected Works, are trying something different. Instead of releasing another coffee table book about video games, they’re releasing a coffee table book about video games that also has cardboard pop-ups of old Sega arcade cabinets.
The book is called SEGA Arcade: Pop-Up History, and it’s currently taking orders on Kickstarter. The Guardian’s Keith Stuart has written it, with features on Hang-On, Space Harrier, Thunder Blade, After Burner and Out Run.
Each game features a write-up on its importance and history, but is also accompanied by schematics, illustrations and the aforementioned cardboard pop-up model.
Prices start at £35 ($62), as all the early bird rewards have already been snapped up. I have a few of their books and they are excellent, so hopefully this one continues the trend.

One response to “New Sega Book (For Adults) Has Pop-Ups”
Would be neat if the popups had little built in emulators to play them 😛
