Rolls-Royce Black Badge Ghost Gamer: A Nostalgic Arcade Dream
Rolls-Royce Black Badge Ghost Gamer: A Nostalgic Tribute to Arcade Gaming
Rolls-Royce has revealed a unique addition to its bespoke lineup, the Black Badge Ghost Gamer, inspired by the vibrant world of vintage video games. This special commission, crafted for a passionate collector of early arcade culture, is a celebration of the nostalgic 8-bit aesthetic from the late 70s and early 80s.
A Journey Through Gaming History
With features commemorating the golden era of gaming, the Black Badge Ghost Gamer is not just a car but a tribute to a pivotal cultural moment. Its exterior sports hand-painted details, including the playful Cheeky Alien motif and intricately embroidered seats that proudly declare Player 1 and Player 2. Each detail is thoughtfully designed, creating an experience akin to stepping inside an immersive game.
Designer Joshua McCandless described the process: *“Working on a bespoke design for Rolls-Royce is a privilege that demands creativity and boldness. This project was particularly thrilling as we immersed ourselves in the 8-bit aesthetics, capturing the vibrant colors and atmosphere of arcade halls and original artworks. We aimed to evoke the exhilaration felt when pressing the 'Start' button on an arcade machine with every drive.
