Wouldn’t it be great if you could
play all your favorite arcade games in a real arcade machine in your gameroom?
Wadsworth, OH – October 16, 2014 – Imagine playing all the classic
arcade games just like you remember in a supped up NEXT generation coin-op
converted arcade machine that also plays today’s newest games! The creator of
this arcade machine, Christopher Gerding, would like to introduce you to the
all-new Game Gate: Gameroom Editon.
Game Gate is an upright arcade cabinet with cool LED side panels, custom
artwork, backlit header, 32” LCD, awesome sound, and more gaming than you can
shake a stick at. Playing Pacman on an iPhone simply doesn’t compare to the
eye-popping quarter dropping madness of being a foot from the screen with a
ball topped arcade joystick in one hand and a
Mountain Dew in the other.
The Game Gate can play all the classics, but it can also play all the
great Xbox games that you can download through Xbox Arcade and marketplace
including some really amazing Indie games. Game Gate represents huge leaps
forward in how games are played.
Originally designed to be coin-operated, this amazing machine is being
upgraded to GAMEROOM EDITION. This campaign is all about adding a revolutionary
arcade panel and tweaking the system for free play, and at a price only
available to those willing to help us launch through Kickstarter!
About Game Gate
Game Gate is way more than an Xbox 360 in a cabinet. As mentioned, the machines were the world's
first and only licensed for public use home console based arcade. The Xbox game console is controlled by a
custom developed control board that switches video between an integrated PC and
the game console.
Power and USB functions are directly controlled by the system, and game
play is in a charge-by-time configuration.
Time remaining and custom messages are displayed in the LED matrix
housed in the backlit marquee. Color
changing LEDs on the sides and front of the cabinet change to attract
players. A powerful sound system with
ear level speakers and a powered subwoofer make any game sound incredible, and
the games look stunning on the 32” LCD.
There’s a ton of extra features on the machine that make it very
unique. There are two headphone jacks on
the front of the machine with separate volume control. There are illuminated pushbuttons for player
selection and system reset. There is a
video out on the back of the machine so you can use a shadow monitor (so if you
have big screen TV in your gameroom, hook it up to the Game Gate and play from
either screen). There are casters on the
bottom of the machine for easy moving and leg levelers for stable play.
