That video arcade in TheLastofUsHBO Episode 7? The crew built that from the ground up, including sourcing working cabinets for the arcade's collection of classic games. And that was just the beginning of all the work it took. Via arstechnica

The Last of Us' HBO series went to great lengths to re-create a 2003 mall arcade for a recent episode. Two of the arcade enthusiasts hired on for that scene have detailed the triumphs and technical limitations they encountered, at length, in an arcade history forum thread.

Production designer John Paino told Variety that"Raja's Arcade" took its name and frontal appearance from the game's Left Behind DLC, but otherwise the production team built it from scratch. All the games had to actually work because creators Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann demanded it, according to Paino. But the original games would have had cathode-ray tube screens, which—as anybody using a camera back then would remember—can be difficult to capture.

Forum members JoshODBrown and ChanceKJ , who together make up The Canadian Arcade, consulted with HBO on the episode. Throughout an extensive thread, the duo unpacks a lot of the tricks, workarounds, and concessions necessary for the scene.
