In the arcade marketplace the latest trend seems to be follow the leader and release what he does. To avoid the "same old, same old”, someone is needed to get things rolling; to get direction ... a new leader perhaps to get things started.

Enter Michael Sabatino, an independent thinker and a strategist, as well as the President of Jesler Enterprises, he believes he has a torch that can shed light into the arcade future. His enthusiasm for this vision is contagious.

Simply put, his company, Jesler Enterprises, has merged new technology with old, to produce something truly new AND different. Taking a standard X Box console, and controller and mating them to a coin operated cabinet sounds easy; but it is not. The tiny controller, while great for personal use, dies quickly in the commercial arena. To address this, he and his team have designed and developed a commercially stable and dependable unit that uses standard arcade parts to replace the tiny, relatively delicate version. The team then packaged this robust controller unit in a panel that has a layout matching the home version controller, right down to button colours.

Because the game software being presented on the 27” SVGA screen is from the X Box, changing the game software is done just as it is with any game console, change the game CD. This allows the Operator a new degree of flexibility that they may not be used to, but do deserve. To always have the latest and greatest software, AND the ability to change titles at will is surely a formula for great coin box traffic.

The system can be operated on coin or bill as well as tokens. This feature, and the tokens in particular, makes the unit controllable for demonstrating new games. Control is delivered by issuing tokens to play and the machine ending play at a predetermined time, based on the preset token value. This, in effect, controls the crowds at the demo unit while still allowing effective display of the game attract screen and the game itself.

A kit version of this machine will soon be available to retrofit current driving cabinets.
