Do you miss the golden age of arcades, when people would get together and play all day with a fist full of quarters? Those days may be gone forever, but AtGames is bringing professional arcade consoles right to homes. They look just like the classic games of yesteryear, but are packed with modern technology like any gaming console of today.
The Legends Gamer series becomes available for online pre-order starting today at: AtGames.com, with the products shipping to consumers in early-October. The same great technology and gaming fun that has made the full-size Legends Ultimate home arcade such a runaway hit is now available in three new products, starting at only $99, and feature all the great gaming controls, including premium joysticks, buttons, and trackball, just without the full cabinet and monitor. Take arcade action to any room by simply connecting to a television or display device of your choice.
The Legends Gamer series is available for pre-order at major retailers in the United States, including Sam’s Club, GameStop.com, and Walmart.com, and has distribution in Europe. More details on where to purchase the Legends Gamer series are at: AtGames.net/arcades/shop-now/
The three additions to the Legends Arcade family are the Gamer Pro, Gamer, and Gamer Mini. These fully featured “arcades” come pre-loaded with up to 150 classic arcade and home video games from licensors like Data East, Disney, Jaleco, Taito, The Tetris Company, and more. The full game lists can be found on the Legends Gamer product page: AtGames.net/arcades/legends-gamer-series/
“The community spoke and we are responding,” says Dr. Ping-Kang Hsiung, CEO of AtGames. “People love the Legends Arcade experience, but not everyone has the space or budget for a full-size machine. Our fans let us know they wanted more ways to get the true arcade experience, which is why we are adding the Gamer Series to the Legends Arcade family.”
The Legends Gamer series gives players the same complete arcade control experience: joysticks, buttons, and trackball as the full-sized Legends Ultimate Arcade, in packages designed to fit any living space. The Legends Gamers work with any HDMI-based projector, monitor, or TV, including vertical displays, for true big-screen gaming, and features a wide range of built-in, licensed arcade and console games. Internet connectivity means ArcadeNet and BYOG cloud-gaming and streaming capabilities, voice chat, friends lists, global leaderboards, and more.
The Legends Gamer Pro (MSRP $249). The most full-featured of the Gamer series, it includes a trackball in addition to arcade quality joysticks, pinball buttons, and 150 built-in licensed games.
The Legends Gamer (MSRP $199) Great for two-player action, it features two arcade-quality joysticks and pinball buttons, and includes the same 150 built-in licensed games as the Gamer Pro. A trackball is optional.
