Absolutely. I’d picture it as a proper 1988-style dedicated Splatterhouse cabinet, but with the artwork combining the visual identity of all three games. Overall cabinet * Classic upright black Namco cabinet, with the chunky, angular shape of a late-80s arcade machine. * One-player control panel only — joystick on the left and two large red attack/jump buttons. * No modern widescreen monitor; a 4:3 CRT-style screen with a thick illustrated bezel. * Coin door with two coin slots, period-correct Namco styling. Marquee The marquee would be the centrepiece: SPLATTERHOUSE in huge dripping red lettering, with the three games represented around it. * Splatterhouse 1: Rick, the mansion and the original horror imagery. * Splatterhouse 2: darker, more grotesque enemies and the intensified horror aesthetic. * Splatterhouse 3: Rick’s more imposing appearance, the mansion interior and the game’s more supernatural imagery. Rather than looking like three separate logos stuck together, I’d make it feel like one continuous piece of artwork, with the three eras flowing into each other. Side panels This is where I’d really make it special. Left side: predominantly Splatterhouse 1 — Rick with the hockey mask, mansion, moon, trees and monsters. Right side: progressively transitions through Splatterhouse 2 into Splatterhouse 3, with increasingly horrific creatures and darker red/purple artwork. The SPLATTERHOUSE logo would run vertically toward the lower section of each side. Control panel I’d Voir plus
