World's Smallest Arcade Machine is also a new record for 2013 in computing.
I applied to Guinness some time ago. There are is lot of complication.
There are probably smaller arcade machines, but there are specific criteria for the Guinness recognised record.
You are also required for a Guinness application, to explain your motivation, methodology,
help you will receive, and a bunch of other questions, all prior to the attempt.
I have tried to privately contact the author of PBP, I'm sure he wouldn't be opposed to a mention.
I would appreciate a contact, It's important!
Normally, for a project of any term like this, it would be too early to speak of it,
but the above is necessary, or it's abort.
It's too late for anyone to begin now and beat me in terms of speed of getting it done ;)
I'm sure I can only hold the record for a year if that, given it's possible that
having seen the new record (it's the actual category that's new),
that someone else has already begun, and I couldn't know about their progress.
I plan to use the same 128x128 colour display, and shave some dimension off the side of the cabinet.
The current record holder made it wider than it had to be by using flat ply!

Current record holder is boned for that alone.
Every other specification, both objective, and subjective improvement on the games, I plan to beat.
For best shot at the favourable outcome, it isn't appropriate to spill details,
but still would appreciate any thought/ideas on the matter, and any experience with Guinness.
Cheers, Art.
