In Soviet Russiaā¦they had video games. Not particularly special ones, mind you, but they had them. And those dusty old machines now have pride of place in a new museum in the Russian capital, Moscow.
The Museum of Soviet Arcade Machines (the Soviet ethic lives on in the placeās name, then) is home to versions of 20 of the original 37 machines licensed for manufacture in the old USSR during the 70ās and 80ās.
The place is open to the public, and all the machines have been restored, so theyāre playable. Worth remembering if youāre planning on taking a trip to Moscow! Or, you know. If you live there.
