Game Never Over

Game Over? That’s a concept we don’t like to hear at Arcooda. Our machines are created with the purpose of allowing users to play unlimited games on the one machine. By simply plugging in consoles such as the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch, or their PCs, users have access to a wide range of current and retro games available on these platforms. With access to the PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, Steam and more, this further extends the gaming libraries users can download their favourite and wanted games from (as long as they’ve previously purchased the games or are willing to). But that’s not all; you can also connect JVS late model arcade gameboards and more to really extend the offering of games available.

Our core philosophy at Arcooda is that we want to create one machine that you can play for life. This is why we’ve designed our machines with console, PC and gameboard compatibility, where you only need to plug in your system or board and you’re ready to go! We have a number of different style machines to suit your main form of gaming, however we want them to be able to play everything your heart desires. Let’s take our Game Wizard Xtreme for example; this machine is designed as a sit-down joystick cabinet for players who prefer fighting games and typical sit-down arcade games. However, it can play a wide variety of new and old games thanks to its console/PC/gameboard compatibility. This means as well as playing your favourite fighting games like Street Fighter and Tekken, the Game Wizard Xtreme can also play platformers, driving, sports, RPGs, shooting and more!

So, what will you play today?

Game Never Over

Arcooda Now Offering Kinect Support Free

Arcooda are happy to announce Kinect support will now come free with their PC Steam Cabinet Mode, Generic Cabinet Standalone and Arcooda Cabinet version software. This means users who have already purchased any of these products will have access to this feature at no extra cost.

To access this capability, Arcooda have advised customers with the Generic or Arcooda Cabinet software they will need to manually update their firmware. Customers with the Steam Unlock version will have this feature automatically installed by update. Arcooda still have software packages available until sold out. 

Game play with Kinect is as easy as plugging your Kinect into your cabinet and enabling Kinect game play in the options menu. This will mean the Kinect camera will track your body movements, adjust the game play visual to the angle you are standing on and show the player a dynamic rendering of the 3D playfield.

Highway Gaming New Website For Arcooda Customers

Arcooda are happy to announce a new website has been made available to customers to address any questions or trouble shooting concerns surrounding their machines. Highway Gaming will be used as a tool to help customers with the setting up, updating, and game play of their individual cabinets.

To register your machine, please contact support@arcooda.com together with a photo of your serial number plate (if you purchased an arcade machine) or your invoice number (if you purchased software).

People who have not made a purchase through Arcooda before will still be able to view the site, however, they will only be able to see very generic, basic information about the machines without having a login code.

Arcooda’s first commercial Video Pinball machine will now support Virtual Reality pinball. Connecting VR is as simple as plugging the HDMI and USB cords from the VR headset into the front of the Arcooda Video Pinball machine.
