Modern video game interfaces primarily favor solitary gaming, and many suggest long periods of playtime. We have largely lost the real-life, social, low commitment experience provided by the interface that founded video gaming: The Arcade.
The Polycade seeks to evolve the traditional arcade. The old machines are giant, heavy, difficult to fix, and only play a single game. Slim, light, easy to fix, and capable of housing thousands of games, this modern and affordable arcade cabinet brings back this well loved and long missed gaming format!
