New Arcooda video series to keep you up to date

video seriesFrom today, Arcooda will start an all new video series which will provide our gaming community and the wider public with up-to-date company news.

The regular checkpoint videos will feature details and updates on Arcooda projects currently under development and, at times, call for your opinions and input about them.

“There is a lot of new development at Arcooda, and often these developments are difficult to explain just through text,” Arcooda CEO Steve Josifovski said.

“We have created this new video series to share with our distributors and customers many of the projects we are working on, machines we are soon to release, and also to ask for your feedback.

“This video series is a good way to contribute and have your say on what features you would like to see added, cabinet colours, or what further collaborations you would like us to have with other leading software and hardware factories.

“We hope you can be part of our community as the machines we are building are not designed for “one off” game style purchases, but more, where the cabinet can be modified over the years for long term use.”

Checkpoint video one will land on the Arcooda YouTube channel Thursday night.

This video will contain updates on the Arcooda Video Pinball, a new game and machine, plus something extra we’ve been working on – an anti-cheating system.

Keep an eye out on our YouTube channel, as well as our Facebook and Twitter pages for these checkpoint videos.

We want you to join the discussion. Ask a question, post a comment or send us a message about our checkpoint video on Arcooda’s Facebook, Twitter or YouTube pages.

Arcooda Pinball Arcade Updates

Arcooda Pinball Arcade

We have received a number of inquiries requesting further information on Arcooda Pinball Arcade, the latest video pinball software to be added to our Arcooda Arcade and Pinball machines.

Please note the following;

  • Both the Arcooda Video Pinball Machine and Arcooda Pinball Arcade Software are in prototype mode. The Arcooda Pinball Arcade software is currently being upgraded and modified to match our full sized Arcooda Video Pinball machine. Functions in the game software will now allow functions on the actual machine to work – for example, the shaker motor in the game software will now allow the shaker motor on the full sized machines to operate.
  • Arcooda Pinball Arcade is software only and is a collaboration between Arcooda and FarSight Studios to create the most advanced video pinball experience. Over 70 The Pinball Arcade titles will be included on Arcooda Pinball Arcade (review full list below). This will be part of a software range made exclusively available on Arcooda’s arcade and pinball machine product line.
  • For Arcooda Video Pinball machine functionality, we will shortly ask our members to vote and comment on the features they would like included on the machine. This feedback will be very important, as it will come down to costs and  interest. For instance, whilst we can add a cutting edge topper on the machine, are our clients willing to pay for this feature?
  • During the IAAPA  Attractions Expo we displayed a variety of game software titles, and periodically we showed the PC original version of “The Pinball Arcade” Steam edition, against the prototype Arcooda Pinball Arcade (please review above photo). At the time of the IAAPA, we could only demonstrate stage one of the updates – 3 screen support, and one full sized table view. At launch, we will have a number of different camera angles, including some special features.
  • The Arcooda Pinball Arcade software will be uniquely different to the current “The Pinball Arcade” software and as such, existing FarSight Studio customers will not be able to port over their account/software for free. However, Arcooda will offer very generous software credits and discounts.
  • All our machines are being built with community support. Join our discussions and let us know what you like and what improvement you would like to see. We are trying to build the most advanced (and best) multi function video pinball machine for both the home and coin operated market, both products to be released in 2017
  • We will be making regular press announcements over these next weeks, including distributor information on where you can purchase the machines.

Thank you for your continued support.
