It worked really well and the ability to add your own games on a USB drive makes it well-worth the price.. Similar products I've seen don't do nearly as much as this and costs more, require a PC/Pi4, etc. I'm really happy with this purchase. Thank you for watching my friend!

Some users said it breaks easily and sometimes not responsive. How is your unit working?

@@WagnersTechTalk what roms or emus can I add

@@legendsflashback Please see here to get you started; wagnerstechtalk.com/al-coinopsx/

@@WagnersTechTalk thank you !

Much appreciated Gamer Nix! Happy to hear that the content has been helpful.

Thank you so much, I do my best to not waste your time and appreciate your kind comments!

For $50, the Gamer Mini is an incredible value. You can do so much with it, it's great for anyone who loves retro games (in my opinion). Not sure if you're using BYOG exclusively or CoinOpsX, if not using CoinOpsX please see this section of the guide: wagnerstechtalk.com/algm/#CoinOpsX It makes things really nice. There is also a vertical-only version of CoinOpsX here: wagnerstechtalk.com/al-coinopsxv/ you may also enjoy (fewer games, but artwork looks better for vertical games). The Pinball button kit is great and makes it nice for playing pinball games. However the button kit is $50. Sometimes you can find it for ~$25 during NOD events (National Owner's Day) which typically occurs in Feb. or Sept.

I did the same thing! Can't wait for it!

Awesome, if you need any assistance this page should help get you started: wagnerstechtalk.com/algm/

Me too,y was cool,I wanto geta Moreno games.

¡Gracias Angel!

Very welcome, happy it was helpful to you! No worries, I can understand why you might think that.

Hi Rush, I actually asked AtGames the same thing (for a Gamer Mini with a trackball). They were receptive to the idea, but no such product exists. For a trackball, at present, the only solutions are the Gamer Pro and the Legends Ultimate.

@@WagnersTechTalk Seems it would sell better than the non trackball version. Differentiation is key.

Most welcome and Excellent price!

Where are you seeing a delay, in the controls or the audio?

@@WagnersTechTalk the controls sir

I'm not 100%, but I don't think so.

it does now

The games play very well, I didn't have any issues with latency. Of course, for the best pinball experience I do prefer playing on the Legends Pinball machine (guide here: wagnerstechtalk.com/alp ). But the Gamer Mini can be picked up cheap at GameStop right now (~$50 USD). If you wind up getting one, I'd recommend a TAITO or Zaccaria volume to start with and see how you like them. They play MUCH better than the Gottlieb tables.

How can I put an on/off switch on the puck?

Hi James, I've not encountered any issues using this method: wagnerstechtalk.com/al-coinopsx . I actually cloned an existing USB drive I was using on my ALU, then formatted the 1st partition using Flash Drive X and all has been working fine. I'm not sure exactly how your thumb drive is setup, but I've not received any negative feedback on this guide so far. May want to give it a try, you will want to use FDX as mentioned here to download additional tables/apps but it can all be done on a single USB stick. Please give it a try and let me know how it goes. Note - I've performed the same on the ALU, ALP, Gamer Mini and Legends Ultimate Mini.

@@WagnersTechTalk well, that’s the problem. I’ve done one of this successfully once before with the SD card adapter. When I prep the usb with the recommended partitions, all the copying and the AddX tool, when I plug in the usb to the disc, I never get the opportunity to utilize FDX. My AGM doesn’t acknowledge that a usb drive was plugged in. It acknowledges the usb charging cable to the control deck and the SD card to USB adapter but fries all other USB thumb drives. I think I am returning the unit for an exchange. I love what I can do with it, with the SD card adapter but don’t like the destructive streak.

I've honestly not encountered this issue, yeah could be a defective core unit.

@@WagnersTechTalk Well, its all swapped out. I'll try again tonight. Thank you for replying. I'll keep you posted.

Make sure the internal battery is charged using the included cable first, it may not have enough charge to enter pairing mode. If it still doesn't work, contact AtGames support.

I'm not sure I understand the question. You can create an account and use it on up to 6 devices. However, you can't play the same game packs (i.e. purchased packs) at the same time on two different devices without exiting on one before moving to the other. However, for the stock games on each machine, yes you can run them on two different devices with the same account.

Yes, just use a microUSB to USB-A cable to directly connect.

If you have a microUSB cable around (for an older cellphone), you can use that to power the machine. They also have a support page here: wagnerstechtalk.com/algm/#Resources , they may be able to ship you the cables that were missing also check the box closely. Sometimes they like to hide.

Thank you Barry, unfortunately no the deal for $50 was short-lived. There are some deals coming up at newegg, Amazon and AtGames e-store that you may want to watch for : wagnerstechtalk.com/al-news/#November_Updates

I am doing a little Googling and see possible to purchase at Walmart for $48. It's from a 3rd party company but returnable at Walmart store and extended holiday return, so I may give it a try

It's well-worth it IMO

Hi Jon, I picked mine up at Walmart online for $48. Any way to add a smoother to the video? I see scanline options but no smoother

Here's a listing of all the games currently available on ArcadeNet: www.atgames.net/arcadenet/

Are you talking about the Blast (this blast.atgames.net/ ) ? If so, no you wouldn't be able to use it with the Gamer Mini as it's not a USB but rather an HDMI output.

I've not tried exactly what you're asking. I was able to connect the mini to the ALU over BT. I presume you can connect more than one mini to a single core in the same way. I only have one Mini so it's not something I can test, but each mini would be paired to a single core and it may work.

@@WagnersTechTalk So, lets imagine im not using the mini controller.... i can connect 2 wireless controllers to the core?? and play 2 players??

From what I understand, it's just a drop-in replacement. Remove the screws on the ALUM, disconnect the cables and install the gamer mini.

@@WagnersTechTalk but isn't the "brain" on the legends mini in the control deck and the gamer mini completely outside of its deck in that disk shaped console?

In the ultimate mini, it's in the back of the machine (not the control panel).

@@WagnersTechTalk Oh ok now it makes sense...so its in the top part where the screen is?

correct

Thanks to a resourceful viewer, here's a list of all the controllers that should work on any Legends product: wagnerstechtalk.com/alcontrollers/ This may be helpful to you. It's quite an extensive list imo.

@@WagnersTechTalk Thanks Wagner, I have bookmarked the page for future reference.

I'm sorry, which menu? If it's the left-side filter/menu, move the joystick down and highlight a game. Then, press the AtGames/Menu button and it will appear. Hope that's the menu you're asking about. If not, let me know please.

USB or Bluetooth should work fine. I've connected the SCX to the larger Legends Ultimate machine.

Can you give a quick setup guide, on how to connect the two person legends gamer pro to a scx device?

I have the Arcade box and would like to connect to legends gamer pro Joy sticks

Yes it does!

@@WagnersTechTalk Thanks for let me know. One more question please. So i can put new games with usb stick and import it, for example Shinobi?

You can and here's how: wagnerstechtalk.com/al-coinopsx

fyi - I have a lot of info. on the Gamer Mini guide here, if you've not seen it already: wagnerstechtalk.com/algm

Unplug the puck, leave it off for about 30 seconds, plug it back in. Then try this: wagnerstechtalk.com/algm/#Connect_to_Legends_Gamer_Console

No, that's probably about the only feature I've not seen. However, you can connect two of these together (or to an ALU). I did try connecting it to an ALU as well and it worked very well. Had a 3-player game of Bomberman going (via CoinOpsX).

Please give me a little more information. What button, power (on the arcade), wireless, menu? Connected wireless to the core or USB cable to a PC? HDMI plugged into the TV/Monitor, correct input selected, plugged in the microUSB cable.. etc.

Try unplugging power to the Core and turn off the control panel for about 15 seconds. Then, power it all back on and follow these steps: wagnerstechtalk.com/algm/#Connect_to_Legends_Gamer_Console Should get you going.

@@WagnersTechTalk i got it. Thanks

That's an even better price than what I paid, think mine was around $74.

I found mine on clearance for $48!! #boom

@@kevincortes09 Nice!

Centipede isn't included in the Gamer Mini (no trackball), however you could add it using CoinOpsX: wagnerstechtalk.com/al-coinopsx/ . However, you may be interested in the ALU which you can pick up from Sam's Club which includes Centipede/Millipede, a trackball, x2 spinners, x2 joysticks & buttons. More on the Legends Ultimate here: wagnerstechtalk.com/alu/

@@WagnersTechTalk thank you!!!

Sure, you can connect it to your PC, load it up with games using CoinOpsX (details here: wagnerstechtalk.com/al-coinopsx/ ). Then, if you want to use the great features of ArcadeNet you can.

Apparently bluetooth capabilities vary between batches, I’d make sure to test first thing and return/exchange until you get a good one.

Please see the first bullet here, should help you out: wagnerstechtalk.com/algm/#Troubleshooting

@Wagner's TechTalk yeah it won't even work in wired USB mode.....I bet this unit was returned and resold to me

There are a number of great classic games pre-installed, such as Burger Time, Bad Dudes, Bubble Bobble, Front Line, Space Invaders, etc. (full game list here: wagnerstechtalk.com/algm/#Manuals ). I can understand CoinOpsX, if it's not something you're familiar with, can be intimidating initially. But, tried to make it as easy as possible with this guide: wagnerstechtalk.com/al-coinopsx . If you don't like the included games, this machine really shines after adding a USB stick with CoinOpsX. There are places where you can buy the USB stick pre-setup for you, but I've personally never used them. The pinball tables are great, but you would need to purchase a volume pack to install/play them (TAITO Vol 1 or 3 is what I would recommend) and the pinball buttons for a better experience. Given what you've said above, wouldn't recommend that until trying CoinOpsX first. You can connect the Arcade panel to a PC (use as a controller), stream PC games to your living room, play ArcadeNet games, etc. I do hope you give this machine a closer look before you give up on it. You'll get out of it what you put into it -JMHO

@@WagnersTechTalk okay, maybe I will have time to try steps, I had already bookmarked that wagers site. (I have many roms for mame that I downloaded years ago.) But the unit did allow me to download and install the 5 Taito games but they are not on the list of games to play.?

If it allowed you to download/install them (I assume we're talking about Pinball here?), it means you already have a USB stick installed on the machine. If that's the case, then go to the main "Games" tab, move down to select a game (don't press anything yet, just highlight a game). Then, press the AtGames/Menu button, on the left-hand side you'll see a list of favorites, platforms, etc. Move down to Platforms, select the TAITO Volume and press the "A" button. From there, you'll see a filtered list of just those games. Repeat the same process but select "All Games" if you want to see the full list of games again. More details and help here, if needed: wagnerstechtalk.com/algm/#Operation

@@WagnersTechTalk Yes, I have formatted and mounted the USB stick and installed (but I incorrectly said Taito) the zaccorian pinball tables, but to no avail, do not appear in the list of games, under platforms or otherwise. But thank you.

What problem are you trying to solve? A little more info. may allow me to help.
