Credits
We want to give special thanks to Dan Patrick for his incredible work on the console logos used throughout our website. His collection of professionally redrawn console logos represents over 500 hours of work across 15 months, bringing unprecedented quality and accuracy to gaming platform logos.
The complete collection of these logos can be found on Internet Archive, where Dan has made them available for the community. The collection includes over 245 platforms across arcade systems, computers, consoles, and handhelds.
