The Apex arcade machine is one of the best up-right new arcade cabinets available, with the highest quality of gaming and stacks of customisable options, enabling your dream retro-gaming machine to become reality. The Apex is designed to play like a classic arcade machine with an attractive sleek, slim build that is sure to be a centrepiece of any room. 

Handmade to order in the UK, these machines provide the pinnacle in arcade gaming, the Apex plays like a dream and guarantees many years of enjoyment. With the Apex's design mirroring classic arcade cabinets combined with modern gaming standards and accessibility, meaning the Apex is very easy to use. Here at Home Leisure Direct, we've spent plenty of time with these machines, reliving the classic days of the arcades with all the games we'd nearly forgotten!

The Apex Media is perfect for anyone looking to satisfy their retro gaming needs and would like the additional ability to load on an extra 7000+ games from early consoles, such as NES, SNES and Megadrive, along with more modern consoles such as Daphne, N64, Jaguar and Saturn. With great graphics cards and an i3 Dual Core PC, it offers 4 x USB ports, a built-in DVD re-writer, wireless card, speaker in/out, and a headphone jack.

The Apex has a compact arcade cabinet, measuring only 56cm wide and 64cm deep, so it will never be obtrusive especially compared to the old originals which look huge in comparison! This makes them perfect for a whole range of settings, whether in a home, office or games room - we've even installed one in a dentist's waiting room!

With its large 20” HD screen, this machine gives a very high quality of gaming and is great for players and spectators alike. They also have a large 2-player control panel as standard, allowing you and a friend to play comfortably side by side as a team or against each other.

This fantastic arcade machine benefits from a great speaker system delivering crisp sound along with great bass and the volume can be adjusted via the wired remote on the front of the cabinet.  All in all, the Apex Media is a wonderfully designed cabinet that is both highly playable and extremely user-friendly.
