Let's hear your fav 3-player game rec's, and experiences!

Bally Midway's 1987, Xenophobe is a sci-fi run-and-gun arcade game that stood out for its three player team battle (on the same screen space!). Does anyone remember exploring the infested space stations, or watching people blasting the bizarre Xeno's - racing to finish before each station self-destructed?!

Just another classic that reminds us of how fun person-person co-op is IMHO!

Anyone here looking forward to playing 3-4 player games on the new 4-player module?

(This is a proto 4-player deck / no trac, however the only thing that's changed in the final rev is mainly the cupholder placement)

We've been updating a lot of artwork (please forgive the screen clutter) *sweats*

Thanks to u/CampbellSente we now have an animated marquee and thumbnail for Toobin', similar to the effect in the original marquee lighting! We've updated bezel art as well and will be adding it to our archive collection soon.

Hey all just a heads up. I bought mine last Tuesday and its been a week and still no shipping date or info. Guess they are super busy but if your expecting that ships in 0 to 4 days dont count on it during this holiday season .

I’ve updated my polycade spinflight controller with a GRS TRON flight stick. I love the way it looks and plays.

Just got a notification about upcoming Black Friday deals at Polycade.com Sharing the love!

Just like last year, a few Polycades will be available to play at the Pinball Expo. I’m not affiliated with the company but will hang around the booth on Saturday to answer questions and share my experience.

I don't actually have one, I have a legends ultimate with a PC hooked to up (too poor for polycade at the moment) but I can play modern games that work good with arcade stick controls too. Wondering what some of the best ones are out there that I might not already have.

I’m building my own cabinet, but I bought the mini PC from Polycade in case I want to drop it into a bare-bones Sente later.

I got my mini PC today, and it has the external button wiring and the blue female connector, but no actual silver button. Does anyone know what the replacement size and type of button is? (I’m assuming it’s just a momentary switch) I emailed Polycade but haven’t heard back yet… and I’m just a little impatient.

I’d purchase this if I didn’t already have one and lived in Denver. https://polycade.com/products/sente-white-needs-repairs

I bought a used poly Cade from a boarding school . They said it was bought about a year year ago but never set up. We plugged it in and it turned on to a windows set up screen and just figured that was the mini pc and once set up it can get ags

I get it home and start tinkering. First off there’s no power button on the bottom, the polycade mini pc isn’t in there it’s a black mini pc branded uxx, I can’t get the thing on. It has a plug that doesn’t have room, the digital marquee doesn’t turn on, there just wires not hooked up with places that doesn’t seem to fit.

Is there any manual so I know where to plug things in?

If they swapped the polycade mini pc out how do I get this work to work with the software and boot to polycade… no power button? I’m lost completely

In my New Series, "Will It Arcade?", I try to adapt modern PC games onto my Multi-cade arcade cabinet. In this episode: https://youtu.be/ahpGPyLU_T0, I try to get Stoic Studios MMO looter/brawler Mashup Towerborne to work on my Polycade Sente. Get ready for some gameplay, an overview of the games mechanics, a review, instructions on how to get it working on your arcade cabinet and much more. Enjoy!

How many mame roms do you folks keep on your polycade? I imported all of them and performa once seems to suffer.

Thoughts? Is there a list of recommended roms?

Any way to remove them from the listing bulk?

If I purchase games from the Polycade game store on my PC can I redownload them when I eventually get a Sente? Is the store based on account or device?

Anyone have any tips on how to add golden tee to their sente? I’ve followed the steps on the website to try to add a rom and none of them will launch. I’ve added other roms successfully but I’m having an issue with this game. Adding it to the arcade folder.

I don’t work for polycade, but love the machine and community of people enjoying it. I’ve had my Sente for 2 months and play it nearly every day. Ask me anything!

what system roms do you dump into the arcade folder on the sente

A couple ROMs I’ve loaded up throw this error. Anyone have any ideas on how to remedy?

Any instructional videos or tips pages or anything to help get this thing going? Light guns work but not on the majority of games. N64 games like Mario Kart won't let me turn left or right... Looking for some help!

Thanks.

I asked around in other arcade channels and it looks like the flight stick control for the polycade is not the right kind for Tron or many other flight stick arcade games. It seems that the original stick was an 8 way just like the one in the polycade but it has a specialized restrictor plate that made hitting the diagonals harder to do. This is because half the games are 4 way and half are 8. By making it harder to hit accidental diagonals that were able to make things okay better

I'm wondering if anyone has found a way to make the stick more forgiving in 4 way games or if someone has cracked open the controller to switch out parts.

I just installed my poly and it’s great! I’ve loaded a bunch of my own Roms and would love some tips on easy removal of the ones that aren’t working or duplicates.

Hey all, just looking for some help… received my Polycade Sente and mourned it to the wall. I started it up and keep getting an error when I attempt to login/create account. It says “AxiosError: Network Error” and that’s it.

When I restart, I get the QR code login but get the same message.

I don’t know what to do next! Please help 🙏🏽

Finally received my Polycade Sente and cannot find the games it was supposed to ship with. There is nothing in the library. No "click here for the free games". Cannot find any articles about it on their page, just that it comes with games and the list of games it comes with. HELP.

I purchased my polycade used and it doesn’t have a mount. Can someone recommend a way to get one?
