Its Time To Think Inside the Box!

Arcade-In-A-Box Brings Arcade Gaming to Home Theaters

Think that "home arcade" means big black boxes with tiny computer monitors? Arcade-In-A-Box is revolutionizing the concept of a home arcade.

Tucson, AZ based Arcade-In-A-Box has developed a unique product by literally placing an "arcade" in a box. Superficially, the product resembles an arcade control box, with joysticks, trackball and spinner. Under the hood, however, one finds a complete PC ready to run classic as well as modern arcade-style games. Additionally, this "Arcade-In-A-Box" is designed to plug into a television, not just computer monitors.

Because of this, the company is poised to introduce "arcade-style" computer games to the home theater market.

No longer do people need to purchase a big, bulky arcade cabinet to enjoy arcade-style games with authentic arcade controls. Now they can enjoy modern as well as classic games on projectors or flat screen TVs from the comfort of a couch!

Each computer is designed to play any game currently on the market and features a 3ghz Celeron, 512 meg RAM, and a 128 meg ATI video card. These components are also upgradeable should need arise in the future.

GAMES GALORE!

While most people consider "home arcades" to be the domain of classic games like Pac-Man and Centipede, Arcade-In-A-Box believes that "home arcade" should mean so much more.

That's why the company has started iRetroGames.com ( http://www.iRetroGames.com), a download portal featuring the best of today's arcade hits that work with Arcade-In-A-Box or any home arcade cabinet.

The following are just some of the new arcade classics that Arcade-In-A-Box knows that you will enjoy playing on your TV or home theater system with their console:

Because Arcade-In-A-Box is a full PC, gamers can load any modern or classic games, including emulators such as MAME, DAPHNE and MESS.
