Looking at the size of this vintage cabinet it's almost hard to believe it is equipped with a 19" monitor. That's the standard size I've been equipping mine with lately!
OTOH when I first used to own computers in the 90's I was always saddled with 14" monitors for them and a 19" monitor would have been considered huge and it would have also been expensive..
Cabinets like the Mortal Kombat series had 25" monitors and those made the sprites seem absolutely jumbo!
I used to play the SNES versions of Mortal Kombat on a 25" TV but the way they had to scale down the sprites for the limitations of the console coupled with how they made the playfield smaller ruined the effect and disappointed me
