Yep, not only are they licensed, they're licensed for commercial use. Meaning you can buy one, put it on location, and rake in those quarters.

They have one of these at our local Dave and Busters but its a Showcase Cabinet, but its definitely and Ultracade.  First time I saw it I was like hey, this is just a MAME cabinet with a custom front end, and then i sat down and plugged in some quarters.

Hey Steve, don't the joysticks just suck on that thing. I get more than twice the Robotron scores at home as I do on that one.

Only reason I can know for sure is that I have played the EXACT same machine as STL Steve many times.

There's one of these at what's now pretty much the only arcade in town. I really liked the interface (and it was the only cab there running street fighter )

I love the interface, what I don't like is the screen (it has either a 27" or a 33" screen, fine for fighters, but way to big for classics where you have to watch the entire screen at once). The only two I have ever played have Happ Ultimates in them (which strongly favor the diagonals), and that is pretty much the worst joystick that was ever widely available (Happ competitions, the ATW 4-way, and the countertop playchoice sticks would be pretty much tied for second worst).

Yes, they leave a little to be desired.  I was mainly playing Street Fighter on it and it just didn't feel right.  I think that
