About This File

I use the awesome Bigbox function to display marquees on a secondary monitor. For years I've been collecting high res Mame arcade marquees from all over the internet and since the start of this project got huge help from people in the community to expand this collection, please see the credits below. Not all marquees are in 4K but many are, I've down scaled the resolution to max 3840 pixels wide and max 2160 pixels high and saved all in .jpg format for a good size and quality balance. This project includes Naomi and Atomiswave marquees as well as other arcade systems.

These marquees go hand in hand with this bezel project: 

Credits 
I have forgotten where I got all marquees through the years but I know many came from the legendary @Mr. Do collection see: https://mrdo.mameworld.info/index.php and the many members that create artwork at: https://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php?Cat=
@ArsInvictus is certainly one of the providers as well. A huge thank you to @mOa and @JonnyModlin for providing many many marquees to this collection. Many lower resolution marquees came from the legendary team of AntoPisa at https://www.progettosnaps.net/

Also a huge thanks to the following people and sites: @PapaShine, @Dreamstate@flanx, imbord3rlin3, @djweevil666http://adb.arcadeitalia.net/, @THKhttps://flyers.arcade-museum.com/https://www.flyerfever.com/https://www.recreativas.org/, Ken at https://www.flickr.com/photos/10707024@N04/zzzaccaria.com, Hasan Tasdemir from Nationaal Video Game Museum for the opportunity to photograph at your amazing museum. 
https://www.nationaalvideogamemuseum.nlhttps://segaretro.org/@seijurou and all the logo makers and artwork scanners and submitters for the LB database and other databases.

Hope you enjoy this collection.

You realise he does this in his free time for free? Personally I think you are being cheeky and harassing poor retrolust. He does more than enough for the community as it is. 

 

Much love Mr Retrolust 

 

Thanks man really appreciate it. Johhny and I do have some things in common and that's severe obsession and perseverance. Johhny is either someone that wants to sell the "cleaned up" images or (and I hope thats more accurate) has an even larger obsession for the complete artwork of a marquee but has more difficulty in social interaction if you know what I mean, so it's tough for me to make a good descision.

You are a gem AND a gent, Lust. 

And I would be patient with Jonny's interactions here; your second guess seems about right.

I am going to recommend you be patient.....very, very patient. It a gift when people we do not directly know are willing to take their free time to help so be respectful of that and be patient.

I am sure you are excited and want to see images, but please head this warning. Frequent posts asking where the redone images are will be deleted and if you continue past that I will ban you.

@JonnyModlin Thank you so very much for the amazing marquee collection, this will add many new high quality/resolution marquees to the project. Your eye for detail is amazing and I can tell you've spend a lot of time into this. I can't tell you exactly when I'm able to finish the work on them but I think within a month from now I should have finished it. As an example I also removed the sticker for Extermination:

The marquee for Extermination looks great and amazing. Can I also please send my Sega Naomi marquees as a zip for Capcom vs. SNK 2 and Power Stone 2?

Glad you like :) Sure you can send them, but I do see some naomi marquees in what you've send before already, but if you have more just upload them in one zip file.

Ps @JonnyModlin I've noticed in the first batch you've uploaded there was a marquee for House Of The Dead, it was named "htod" but should be named "hotd", if you look in the huge mame collection you can find a higher quality scan of the marquee in comparison of the marquee you've uploaded.

I am sorry that I uploaded House Of The Dead Marquee that was name htod and fixed it and it was named "htod" I looked in the huge mame collection which was 1.6 for house of the dead marquee and it was here.

No need to say sorry, I just thought maybe you missed it because of the names not matching, i'll look at the marquee you've uploaded tomorrow with the rest of the files you've uploaded today.

I have 210 marquees in total for both new and updated for my downloaded marquees for updated and new folder as a zip. Thank you.

Thanks man, what I will do is work on them and when I reach 100 marquees I'll release a new upate pack for the huge marquee collection so you don't have to wait that long to see new results. All in all it'll probably be around 3 or 4 update packs before all your marquees are worked on and released in these update packs, so keep in mind this will take many weeks :)

What's New in Version 2.4

- 150 new and updated marquees. A huge thanks to @JonnyModlin for providing us with many many new marquees (much more to come in upcoming packs from his collection) @seijurou for providing photo's of rare dedicated Neo Geo marquees (Took a while sorry man). I also merged the Naomi marquees thread with this collection for ease of updating logistics of which @mOa provided a lot of marquees.

@JonnyModlin I will get to your updates for the Naomi marquees as well in the next update packs, working my way down your list in alphabetical order.

I noticed that there are lights on the marquee for Ghost Squad Evolution, Confidential Mission, Over Drive. The colors are not normal on Numan Athletics marquee when I saw them in Version 2.4 update pack. Thank you for releasing the Version 2.4 update pack. I'm happy and excited.

Thanks Jonny glad to hear :) Photos of marquees that are made behind the plexi glass are hard to work on because of the surrounding reflections and reflected light of the glass. Best is to wait on photos or scans that don't have those refelections. The numan athletics photo you provided has color damage because of the sun, some colors fade out because of it and I tried to color correct them but couldn't get the same color result as the previous version. However I do prefer your numan athletics marquee as it does have much more detail.
