Hi! Introducing a new product for 2019 - the Ace Amusements Ultra Compact Loaded Multicade.
A fully loaded machine with a fully loaded control panel in an upright classic cabinet styled after the famous Midway upright cabinet .
Our baby is brand new and plays over 300 classic arcade video games:
- These games include both vertical image games, like Donkey Kong and Frogger, and horizontal image games, like Super Mario Bros. and Asteroids. Read about vertical and horizontal games here.
- Our baby can play trackball games, spinner games, flight stick games, diagonal joystick games, pinball games - basically, all kinds of games requiring all kinds of controllers.
- Trackball games include both vertical image, like Centipede, and horizontal image, like Missile Command.
- Great games are included that never have all the needed or correct controllers - like Q*bert, and Tron, and Ikari Warriors, and Pinball Action.
- A spinner for terrific classics like Tempest and Arkanoid.
See Section N, Game Controllers, at bottom of page, for a review of each of the controllers.
If you are tight on space, or have a difficult door or stairway to get through, or you are wanting a machine perfect for little people, then our Ultra Compact Loaded Multicade is exactly for you.
Because, you can order this machine in either of two sizes - upgraded large size or the standard cabaret size (see below for details).
And, the price is small, too.
Only $2150 for a brand new "fully loaded" compact upright classics multicade that has all the controls needed to play all the 300-plus games.
Sorry, the cabaret cabinet size machine has been discontinued, but full size cabinet still available.
