yeah, it's definitely not old 8-bit hardware anyway simply going on the title screen
I'm inclined to agree it's either going to be a Windows machine in there, or something running Android.
Possibly the game segment is emulation overlayed with new content for the title etc. (but just as possible it's all native code)
There are modern Space Invaders cabinets that are very similar to this thing too, saw one a few years back.
