    Do the games play just like the originals?

    The answer to that question is yes! The titles are emulated meaning that the games use the original arcade’s exact same coding. The games have all the same levels and characters like the original game. If a console emulator is used, there will be some slight differences because it is not the original control system. We can include connections to use original game pads and even original consoles to switch between PC and console. Your original controls can be used with the PC if they are USB controls. We can also include the actual console so you can use your original games.
