Product Description
Get straight into the action with the newly upgraded Legends Ultimate arcade machine. Choose from 300 preloaded licenced games, covering both arcade and console titles. Relive the adventures of your favourite gaming characters with true arcade-quality controls.
Play online and compete with players from around the world in solo- and team-based events, and cement your place at the top of the global high-score leaderboards. Simply log in with your AtGames account and post your score - with some great prizes up for grabs. Or load and play your own games. You can even connect the Legends Ultimate directly to your PC, streaming box, or other device. It's one of the most versatile game systems around.
The preloaded game list includes some of the big hitters from the 1970s through 1990s, from names like Atari, Taito, Data East, and Disney. Try your hand at the games you remember from your days in the amusement arcades, like P47 Phantom Fighter, Qix, Bubble Bobble, Big Run, Space Invaders, and many more. Or try the included games from consoles like the SNES, NES, Atari 2600 and Mega Drive, including Carrier Aces, Joe & Mac, Soccer Kid, Super Star Wars, and plenty of other favourites from your childhood.
Each game has pause, rewind, and save functionality. Your high scores are saved and parental controls are available to restrict screen time. Newly upgraded for 2023, the machine now features pinball buttons as standard, 16GB internal storage for better performance, and 'Attract Mode' screensavers that appear when the machine is idle for some time.
The Legends Ultimate connects via Wifi, Ethernet, or Bluetooth. Once connected, you can use BYOG (Bring Your Own Game), which allows you to stream games from your PC and control them using the arcade controls. If you're a streamer, you can stream your games live to YouTube, Twitch and other live video services (and even connect a Bluetooth microphone). The internet connection also allows easy firmware updates, giving you access to exciting new features as they become available.
You can also subscribe to the ArcadeNet service, giving you access to many more games (monthly fee applies). Load up your own games to play even more favorites. Front ends like CoinOpsX are available for the Legends Ultimate, among other apps (USB-based software, available separately).
But the Legends Ultimate has even more tricks up its sleeve. Also available is the Arcade Play Link (APL), enabling you to connect the arcade machine with other AtGames devices. And there's a provision for you to use accessories and special controllers, too. For example, you use compatible light guns to play shooting games. It’s called The Connected Arcade for a reason!
Game controllers can also be used via USB input on another device, such as PC, MisterFPGA or Raspberry PI. When combined with the HDMI input, this allows you to use the arcade-standard controls on another device and show the screen output on the Legends display. This effectively lets you play any game these other systems support (that are compatible with USB controls) on the Legends Arcade.
Two joysticks and two sets of six fire buttons give you total control over your games. Two spinners with full 360-degree rotation and a full-size trackball allow you to enjoy compatible games just as they were originally intended to be played. And now, the ALU comes with pinball buttons included, too!
The cabinet itself is a full-size arcade-style cab with exciting graphics based on some of the licenced games within. The 24-inch HD LCD monitor presents your games in bright colour tones. Stereo speakers, angled downwards towards the player, recreate all those iconic game sound effects and music tracks. The Legends Ultimate really is The Connected Arcade.
