Title: Need Advice or Comments on Best Turn Key Arcade
Post by: vr_junkie on November 19, 2007, 11:38:47 pm
Which of the following arcades do you think is best - and why?
 
Dream Authentics:
Excalibur
http://www.dreamauthentics.com/product_page_2_ex.html
Nice cab, has trackball & spinner, but works with PC only.
 
Quasimoto:
Quasicade FX
http://www.quasimoto.com/quasicade-fx.php
Beautiful hardwood cab, HD LCD monitor, works with PC or console, comes with PS2 softwre pack but requires you to change disks, also tad pricey.
 
Chicago Gaming company:
Arcade Legends 2 or Ultimate Arcade
http://www.chicago-gaming.com/alegends.php
Nice cabinet (especially the Ultimate 2 - not shown)
Has proprietary hardware, happs controls, trackball, and over 100 games included, display a little laid back, nice price tho.
This one is not PC based, but is upgradeable via SD memory. Mentions Hanaho on cab.
 
Global VR:
Global Arcade Classics
http://www.globalvr.com/products_globalarcadeclassics_intro.html
Nice cabinet, arcade controls, trackball, EXCELLENT game set including Dragon's Lair series. Runs on PC with proprietary boot software.
 
Any input or comments and ideas would be appreciated.

Hire someone here to build you a custom one that both costs less and is far higher quality.
