Our residential machines run Windows 10. Owners can set their machines to boot into Polycade AGS at startup or choose other game launching software if they prefer.

Steam
GOG
Arcades*
NES*
SNES*
Sega Master System*
Sega Genesis*

...and more

Commercial models
Free-to-play, Pay-to-play
Commercial models of Polycade arcade machines startup directly into the Polycade AGS interface, making things as easy as possible for owners of commercial environments. AGS has settings to lock out users from making any changes to the machine.
By locking users out of the machines, we make sure your users aren't changing game options and downloading games on your account.
Like our residential machines, all commercial models are WiFi enabled, so software updates are automatically managed on our end and, if anything ever breaks, we can fix it remotely or alert you. Plus, in the case of our Pay-to-Play machines, we can automatically update games to maximize engagement (and profits).
