A vibrant collage with the dominant central element being a bright, glowing arcade cabinet tilted slightly with a CRT screen showing a pixelated high-score banner. Around the arcade screen, classic retro gaming elements are layered. Pac-Man chases ghosts across the cabinet’s top, Mario leaps between pixelated glowing coins and bright mushrooms to the left. Above the cabinet, Ryu unleashes a Hadouken with a fiery trail, creating motion. Donkey Kong barrels and Space Invaders' alien ships cascade from the top right, with pixel lasers shooting downward. Dynasty Warriors' chaotic battlefield scene unfurls at the bottom, while the Contra soldiers fire toward the opposite corners. An 8-bit explosion effect fills the cabinet's surrounding as neon outlines accentuate the edges. The entire background hums with scanned CRT textures and a bold retro action vibe.

Retro neon typography for the title “《街机游戏编年史》” in electric blue with glowing red accents, reminiscent of arcade headers. Subheaders and the author's name, 童先生, are styled in pixelated text, colored bright yellow. All text appears three-dimensional with bold shadow effects for added depth.

The arcade cabinet is at the center, commanding attention and serving as a frame for the high-score banner and smaller scenes. The book title dominates the top above the cabinet, curved and glowing like an arcade marquee header. Characters and elements from games occupy diagonals, converging towards the cabinet. The author’s name is placed beneath the screen in a space resembling a coin slot. Neon borders and pixelation line the periphery for a cohesive look.
