*** IMPORTANT INFO***
The video below will explain all the options! (This is a fairly long video. Consider clicking HERE for a short 5 min cliff notes version of the video).
If you’re shopping around you may have heard the term JAMMA by now, if not, you should know that all of these multigame arcade cabinets play what are called “JAMMA Boards”. JAMMA is just the name for a type of platform. (The same way Nintendo is a platform that plays Nintendo cartridges). All original arcade games (like Ms Pacman for example) play JAMMA boards. JAMMA boards provide original arcade content.
This Arcade is specifically designed to play PANDORA JAMMA boards. Why PANDORA? When it comes to Multigame JAMMA boards PANDORA is the Ferrari of boards. We tell you why below!

Below I have italicized an excerpt where I asked CHATGPT (Artificial Intelligence) this question. “Is the Pandora DX JAMMA board very good? How does it compare to other companies multigame platforms?”
Yes. Among multigame plug and play JAMMA multicade boards, I’d consider the Pandora DX one of the best ever released.
Compared to its competitors:
• Pandora DX: Excellent overall. Good emulation, relatively low input lag, clean interface, very easy to use, complete versions of games, no system errors or glitches, no misspelled words or duplicated titles, very stable software, and a large platform of titles that has improved quality wise over the years with subsequent releases. . It’s one of the few boards that serious arcade hobbyists routinely recommend.
• Game Elf / 412, 721, 1133, and 1162 boards: Very reliable for a small selection of classic games, but they’re limited and don’t offer nearly the variety of the DX. (No high score saving, no downloading or adding games, no 4 player capability, etc).
• Alpha 3D boards: Marginally better hardware and capable of running newer 3D systems, but they’re more geared toward modern emulation than classic JAMMA arcade games.
The Pandora DX became popular because it focused on doing a few hundred to a few thousand classic arcade games well, instead of trying to cram in 10,000 games at the expense of quality.
No multicade board is perfect. There are still occasional emulation quirks and a handful of games that aren’t arcade perfect. But if you’re comparing it to other JAMMA boards, the Pandora DX is generally considered one of the highest quality options and remains a benchmark that many newer boards still haven’t clearly surpassed for classic arcade gaming.
If I had to give them grades for classic arcade use:

I am a very detail oriented (Military) person and I was very impressed with the high amount of detail on the Awesome Arcades website. I looked at several vendors online and decided that it was worth the cost savings to buy my gaming cabinet from Awesome Arcades and buy my own game board separately. After watching nearly every video they have I decided on the Tornado stand up two player cabinet. I placed my online order and got a confirmation email within a few hours. The game shipped in 2 days and arrived the day I got home from Afghanistan! As advertised, plugging in my board was simple. I called with questions and spoke to someone immediately. Thank you for the military discount, everybody loves it! Thank you for everything, this has been a great experience.

I recently purchased a Tornado Stand Up Arcade model directly from the Awesome Arcades. (I live locally.) Thus far it has been a fantastic purchase process. I contacted them first through email to get a few details and then followed up with a call the next day to make the purchase. Since I was only 20 Mins away from their warehouse they even offered to deliver it to me. I placed the order at 10am and they dropped it off 4 hours later. Wow, what fast service! Overall they were very helpful answering all of my pre-purchase questions and the purchase process was a breeze. They sent over two guys to deliver and place the unit in my house. The delivery guys were very pleasant, they plugged it in and made sure it worked and we have been enjoying it ever since. I highly recommend Awesome Arcades!

I am a huge Street Fighter fan! My wife loves Ms Pacman. After discussing which machine could play both games I decided on the Tornado Two Player stand up arcade! This cannot be overstated, I can not believe the service and personal touch from this company. This was delivered in one week from California to New York and I mentioned that it was a birthday gift for my wife, it came with a red bow and ribbon. I can’t say enough good thing about my experience with Awesome Arcades.

Hi! This is Bruce from Awesome Arcades. Website reviews are great, but Im always a little skeptical of a website that has the ability to moderate their reviews. If they can delete the bad ones, and only post the good ones, how to you know your seeing the whole picture? Thats why we have asked our customers to please leave their reviews on our Google Business page instead of on the individual products. (Our GOOGLE reviews are Linked on the top of the website). We cannot modify Google reviews, for better or worse, those are all real reviews from real customers. PLEASE read them! So far, we have 100% 5 star reviews and plan on keeping it that way!
