Worth the money

What you get: 2 Player arcade controls, 1 joystick and 8 buttons each plus a trackball in the center. This can be used with the small round control 'puck'. This can also be used with a PC or other gaming system as bluetooth controller or hooked up via USB. A similar controller on the market runs about the same $$, but does not have: 150 games, some you will now, many you won't. Once a week updates. Two of them in the month I've owned this have added more games to the system (10 for the Sam's Club edition + 10 bonus to all versions) You can add more games on your own via USB. Can be played via the standard menu style in the system, or via a very nice interface called 'CoinOpsX', which is usable as long as you connect to their Arcade.Net service every couple days. The service is current free, and ATGames have stated that unpaid Arcade.Net accounts will still have access to these features. You can play (online only currently) some free pinball games (caveat: can be a bit laggy depending on internet connection). You can play a selection of online arcade games as well. Also, you can turn your monitor on end and put the Gamer Pro into 'portrait' mode and play pinball using all of the screen and other games that used a vertical screen. All-in-all, this is worth the price. I would suggest this for anyone that played arcade games back in the day or honestly, it's a good 'arcade' or 'fight' stick type controller just on it's own.

Best gaming system for Retro 1980's Arcade Games.

* The Legends Gamer Pro is the absolute BEST gaming system for Retro Games. * I was BIG into going to arcades in the 1980's. I had many high scores with my name on the top of the machine for the High Score (this is not bragging, just letting you know that I know these games very well). The games have the ORIGINAL PROGRAMMING and play exactly like the old games from the arcade. * The controllers with Joysticks, buttons, and Trackball are great quality and well made. Looks like they will last many years. It is heavy so it doesn't slide around easy if you have it on a table or chair while playing. * It comes with 150 games, but 1,000's of old arcade replicas are available on places like ETSY. Look for CoinOpsX USB. They also play exactly like the original games, and have games like Pacman, Ms. Pacman, Donkey Kong, Robotron, QBert, Galaga, etc. etc. etc. * This is a GREAT game for TRAVEL. It hooks up & plays great on our TV in our RV. Now, wherever we travel we can bring these games. * I will probably also be buying the Legends Gamer Ultimate Arcade for our house.

BYOG for the win!

Don't listen to the nay sayers on here! The BYOG feature saves the console. You can 'bring your own games' quite easily. Plus, connect to your own PC either wirelessly through the wifi (and app), or bluetooth. You can also connect directly to the PC with the provided USB cable. I have 1000s of games now through Steam, Twitch, or whatever! As for the grumpies who have 'never heard of these [built in] games', so what! These are the original arcades from the 70s and 80s, preserved perfectly. If you get involved in the weekly tournaments, it makes it quite fun to play new, 'old school' games you wouldn't play usually. Arcade games are all about getting your initials at the top of the high score board anyway, no matter how original, weird, frustrating, fun, cute, or whatever the game is. Most of the built in games have a save and rewind feature. Making it easier to get farther than ever before. Although, if you are going for the high score, than you have got to see how far you CAN get on '1 quarter'. I bought this arcade 2 weeks ago, and liked it so much I went back and bought the upright Legends Ultimate. Please reconsider and enjoy. You wont regret it.

Great value for classic gaming

I'm not interested in the money grab features like paying to stream your pc games on it but for the reason I bought it, it's great. That reason is adding my own roms, which is not explained well and happens through what appears to be a third party app. There's also 150 games built in, mostly titles I have never heard of. Unfortunately, added roms do not integrate with the built in roms, and must be loaded off a separate menu. The panel itself looks great and is amazing, and the games play great, though I hope for an update to the firmware which will organize everything better and simplify operation of the davnaced features.

Thank you for the feedback. Kindly note that streaming games from your own PC is completely free with the ArcadeNetLink app. If you don't have a capable gaming PC, you can use our optimized Cloud streaming service, which provides a powerful server-based PC to play the most demanding games. As with any Cloud server, there is a (small) fee associated with its usage, with more service options to be made available in the future.Also note that the included wireless arcade controller is exactly that, a wireless controller. You can use it via Bluetooth or USB to play games directly on your PC (and other devices that can make use of PC controllers).

Incredible value! This system is the same as the Large upright arcade machine, just in a portable form. Great entertainment for any family members.

Great controller with games!

I played this at Sam's club for a little while and enjoyed it. I read somewhere that this can be used as bluetooth controller for raspberry pi and also used to link to the computer for Steam games. If so, I am sold! In fact, I bought it already.

Defective product

Never worked properly. Only one controller worked, and later neither one worked. Never able to play a full game before returning it. Great concept if it worked.

Not what I had hoped!

barely any games worthy of purchase... they need to do a better job telling the customer what all is in the product... plus the large controller is just not user friendly

Product details are on the website: https://www.atgames.net/arcades/legends-gamer-series/ There are 150 built-in arcade and console games, and you can play more via BYOG and ArcadeNet. If you want something more compact, the Legends Gamer Mini is a good option.

Exactly what I've been hoping for.

As a teenager of the 70s and 80s, I have great nostalgia for the arcade games of that era. The Legends Gamer Pro is a great platform for reliving my youth. The 150 games that come with the unit are not recognizable (other than Space Invaders), but the ability to install other games is what really makes this special. With the AddonX functionality, I am able to play my favorites: Astroids, Missile Command, Joust, Zaxxon and many more. The controls are just like an arcade machine and it really feels like being given a sack of quarters and being let go in a 80s arcade. Getting setup and learning to install my own games took a little bit of time, but there are tons of videos online to help walk you thru the process. By the way, most of the videos are for the Legends Ultimate, but it works the same for the Legends Gamer Pro.
