Hi! When it comes to multigame JAMMA systems, the Games Family Killer Edition (K.E.) 1315-in-1 may well be the finest available.
Yes, there are systems available with more games. But, those systems do not offer many of the features, nor come close to packing the punch of the Killer Edition.
There are a number of reasons you might prefer the Killer Edition over other multigame systems, such as the Games Family 1940-in-1. Following are a few of the 1315-in-1's outstanding features, custom multicade prices, games list, and lots more info.
Be sure to check out the Games Family Ultra Edition 2477-in-1. The 2477-in-1 is the same system as the 1315-in-1 and the 1940-in-1, and with all the same features. But, with just a whole lot more games.
You can find lots more info about the Games Family multicade system at this page.

Killer Edition 1315-in-1 Features -
1. The 1315-in-1 has more processing power. Thus, it can handle the "complex" games like Killer Instinct and Mortal Kombat. Not so with many others.
In fact, the 1315-in-1 is the only multicade system that I know of that offers Killer Instinct.
This is a photo of an original dedicated Killer Instinct cabinet we upgraded into a 1315-in-1 Killer Edition multicade.
It is a dedicated 25" monitor cabinet, no trackball - $1,595.
Here are some of the "complex" games offered in the 1315-in-1:
- Mortal Kombat
- Mortal Kombat II
- Mortal Kombat 3
- Killer Instinct
- Killer Instinct 2
- Tekken
- Tekken 2
2. The 1315-in-1 is USB trackball compatible. Which means that you can play trackball games like Golden Tee and Centipede with a trackball. Not just with the joystick, as with others. Some trackball games can also be played with a spinner.
This is a screen photo of the Trackball category of games. Click the image for a larger view.
Here are a few of the 63 games in the Trackball category:
- Capcom Bowling
- Centipede
- Crystal Castles
- Marble Madness
- Millipede
- Missile Command
- Sinistar
3. The 1315-in-1 is USB spinner compatible. Which means that you can play spinner games with a spinner. Not just with a joystick, as with others. Some spinner games can also be played with a trackball.
Here are a few of the spinner games that I recognized in the games list:
- 720 Degrees
- Arkanoid
- Discs of Tron
- Tempest
- Tron
4. The 1315-in-1 presents proportionally correct vertical game images (taller than wide). With other systems, vertical classics, like Ms. Pac-Man and Galaga, are stretched (wider than tall) when displayed on the horizontally mounted monitor. Not so with the 1315-in-1, the vertical classics look just like they should.
And, speaking of the vertical classics. If you like the iCade 60-in-1 games list, then you have good reason to really like the 1315-in-1. Because, all of the 60-in-1 vertical classics are included in the 1315-in-1, with only a couple of minor exceptions.
Here are a few of the vertical classic greats:
- Ms. Pac-Man
- Galaga
- Donkey Kong
- Frogger
- Dig Dug
- Space Invaders
5. The 1315-in-1 offers 5 Golden Tee golf games - 4 trackball versions, and 1 joystick version. If you are a Golden Tee golf fan (and most of you are), this is "huge." This feature alone is reason enough for many of you to own this sysem over any other.
This is a photo of some of my inventory of original dedicated Golden Tee Golf cabinets available for upgrade into 1315-in-1 Killer Edition multicades.
Here are the 5 Golden Tee Golf games:
- Golden Tee '99
- Golden Tee 3D Golf
- Golden Tee Classic
- Golden Tee Golf II
- Golden Tee Golf (joystick version)
6. The 1315-in-1 offers 2-player and 4-player game play capability. Your game cabinet can be built with either 2-player or 4-player controls. If built with 2-player controls, then a second 2-player cabinet can be combined to allow 4-player action.
Here are a few of the 4-player games:
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
- Captain America
- Battletoads
- The Simpsons
7. The 1315-in-1 provides a Shutdown feature to help protect the hard drive. Others do not.
Use the above info to help decide between multigame systems. If you are seeking a very dependable, economical system with a lot of games, then the Games Family 1940-in-1 is a very good choice.
But, if any of the above listed special features are important to you, then your choice should be the equally dependable, slightly more expensive Games Family Killer Edition 1315-in-1.
