FRONTIER GAMING CABINET - Fully Customisable Arcade Machine

Product ref: frontier

The Frontier gaming cabinet is a quantum leap forward in multi gaming technology!

Now for the very first time you can design your own cabinet, from the powerful computer inside it to the artwork on the outside, and even right down to the very joysticks themselves!

Here at Liberty Games we've been selling arcade machines for over 8 years now, and we've learnt what people want - they want their arcade machines to be as individual and unique as their own memories of playing their favourite games. That's why we've created the Frontier.

Using our in-depth knowledge of arcade hardware, we've put together the widest range of options available for any machine on the market today.

Couple that with our unique arcade interface and you've got a package that's second to none.

To give you an idea what makes these machines so great, here's an introduction to the configurable aspects of each machine:

Base PC

The days of arcade machines running on cartridges or game boards are gone, those things are in the museum now!

What's inside your new Frontier is the latest in Dual Core PC with 2GB of RAM, a 160GB hard disk, with a choice of graphics cards depending on the types of game you are intending to run.

When choosing your base PC, please bear in mind that the basic model supplied with the machine is perfect for running MAME and the classic games list, however if you're looking to add something more modern, you will need the higher spec model.

• This is a supply-your-own ROM machine.

• In the game menu, you'll get short previews of the gameplay of each game as well as the 'marquee' or 'top flash' of the game appearing at the top of the on screen arcade machine. This gives you a real arcade feel. Games load quickly and they quit out to the main menu just as quickly.

Choose from a number of great emulators

Cabinet

The cabinet is where it all begins.

A centrepiece of any room, the Frontier arcade looks stunning in any of its many forms, from the classic black finish & chrome trim, white finish & chrome trim or "arcade" artwork - whatever the finish these cabinets look superb!

Some of our many styles of artwork

• Oh, and if you don't like the styles we're offering? Then just send us yours! For a small extra fee we can get any design whatsoever printed onto the sides of these machines, it really doesn't get any cooler than that

Sound

As standard, the Frontier comes with an authentic arcade-standard sound system, giving the games you play the realistic sounds as they were meant to be heard.

• For those of you who like to blow the roof off, we offer the optional upgrade to the superb Logitech x-240 2.1 speaker system. This gives you crystal clear stereo sound with a thumping baseline to boot - great for taking advantage of that joystick-controlled built in MP3 jukebox

• The addition of the x-240 also brings with it an iPod dock for connecting your little Apple of joy and all its music to the Frontier!

Monitor

Seeing really is believing, that's why the CRTs from the old arcade machines have gone the way of the dodo.

With that in mind, every Frontier comes with a high-resolution 20 inch LCD screen that can emulate the retro games perfectly, but also lets the latest games show off their high definition graphical skills in all their glory.

The monitor has been recessed into the cabinet so it is comfortable to view for long periods -  when you're locked into battle or on a roll, powering though levels of your favourite game - and also removes any glare from nearby light sources.

Networking

Every Frontier comes complete with a rear-mounted USB port which makes adding extra games a breeze. Just copy them to a USB stick, then using a mouse you can just drag and drop them straight into the Frontier - simple as that. Next time you start it up the games will be in your collection, complete with arcade marquee and video preview.

• For those of you with a need to constantly update your games collection, we offer inbuilt Wi-Fi connectivity that lets you share your Frontier wirelessly over your network so you can add the Frontier as a network drive on your computer and drop in games over the air!

Controls

Every Frontier comes with arcade-standard controls.

These are built for the rigours of a commercial environment and can withstand whatever they come up against (even if Blanka's electricity move is a personal favourite of yours).

However, we feel the choice of controls is another area where the Frontier really stands out from the competition.

The cabinet features player one and player two controls - one joystick and six illuminated arcade buttons each - player one in Blue and player two in Red.

Not only can you have the standard Sanwa 8-way joysticks, for the real retro gamers out there we offer switchable 4/8-way joysticks to give those retro games the complete feel.
