Synergy Media Arcade Machine:
Our Bespoke Arcades Synergy Media Arcade Machine is provided with over 350 licensed games, and is fully compatible with other games, educational packages and emulators that can be easily loaded through the DVD drive or USB ports, which are conveniently located on the front. All Synergy Media arcade machines are also configured to be compatible with the arcade emulator MAME and other older console emulators, allowing access to a huge inventory of games. Once installed, emulators can enable our clients to add any additional games that they may acquire to their system. The Synergy Media can very simply be configured to play 1000's of original arcade games along with a large number of older console games.
Just as the Synergy Media is superb for gaming, it also offers exceptional multimedia functionality in that with the built-in DVD re-writer, wireless card, speaker in/out and external USB ports, the cabinet doubles up as a high-end media centre. The Synergy Media can be used as a jukebox with crisp built-in speakers, the option of Hi-fi link-up and lots of spare hard drive space for storing tunes; to watch or create a DVD; to source media or surf the internet with the cabinet's wireless capabilities; or to add your media, link up your MP3 or utilize any other handy PC devices such as digital cameras or additional X-box 360 joypads, using the handy external USB ports.
