Eh well I'd find out what classic games she liked then bring it up in casual mention.for examples sake lets say she likes "super mario" Id use something along the lines of "well the game plays many games, super track and field, pac man, q*bert, super mario, elevator action" You don't want to mention it right away you want her to say "oh did you say super mario i love that game!" then you take it from there mentioning the other games she likes.

Just food for thought, the idea is to find common ground you can use to help benefit your plan of getting it once shes interested. Your making a sale here, but instead of getting money for it your getting an arcade machine.

True restoration is an art form. Like any good artist you have to know what your doing. Painting a single line on a canvas and calling it a masterpiece does not fly in restoring a arcade machine. Do it right
