August, 2003 -- XGAMING Inc., manufacturer of high end video game hardware and software for all game systems, have announced a partnership with Fry's Electronics to setup live in-store demonstrations of the company's $999 X-Arcade Home Arcade Gaming Machine at all Fry's retail stores. The availability of the machine marks the product's debut in the U.S. consumer retail market.

The X-Arcade Machine is the video game industry's first home arcade machine cabinet powered by a game system. Constructed from real arcade parts, the X-Arcade Machine is a 100% replica of a real arcade machine from an arcade (like Pac-Man™ or Space Invaders™), but is uniquely designed for home use in conjunction with an XBOX™, Gamecube™, Playstation ™ , Playstation 2 ™ or PC/MAC™. Users simply place their favorite game systems inside the arcade machine and play any existing games like a real arcade. Users get the realistic and high quality feel of a real arcade machine on all their favorite console and PC games in their home.

Adrenaline Vault, a leading video game review site said "The ambiance that such a impressive piece of arcade fanaticism creates is enjoyable, making it a welcome addition to any person's home. The inclusion of the acclaimed X-Arcade Ultimate Arcade Controller, console adapters, and high-quality materials do justify the cost."
The company also includes special arcade playing software which lets gamers relive thousands of their favorite arcade classics through the machine with their home PC/MAC™.

The unit will be on display starting this week through next January at Fry's Electronics retail stores and will retail for $999. Gamers can choose to purchase the entire machine, or just the brains of the unit, the X-Arcade Joystick, for $149.95 and use with their favorite game console.
