Hi new here. Was wondering since Chicago gaming is no longer in business, if all the stuff applies. Can the arcade legends USB be cracked so I can build a new system? Without the original HD

i'm just going to go ahead and say no.

as far as I know, chicago gaming is still operating. either way, the IP still belongs to someone.

overall, the whole ultracade/supercade/arcade ledgends etc. thing is all gray area when it comes to legality. some of the systems contain IP belonging to companies who did not give permission to use the games.

at this point in time, the whole os is a lost cause due to it's super proprietary nature and hardware lock.
davidrfoley:
Your statement " some of the systems contain IP belonging to companies who did not give permission to use the games." is simply untrue.  UltraCade and Arcade Legends were fully licensed machines.  The OS was developed by JoshuaOS and was licensed from them.  The engine was a combination of internally developed IP by the team at Quantum3D, then HyperWare, then UltraCade Technologies and the Joshua programmers.  The game packs came in multiple forms, all legally obtained:
- direct licenses with manufacturers
- sub-licenses from OEMs
- use of licensed ROMS packaged for PC systems that were readable by the UltraCade/Arcade Legends System
- direct ROM purchases of legacy motherboards

As for cracking the game packs or the OS, it was purpose built to prevent such things from being able to be done. 

The UltraCade 3.0 release has moved away from the JoshuaOS to another custom OS, and the hardware has moved away from Intel to ARM processors.
