Relive your favorite classic arcade games with the Magnum Monolith. Our arcade cabinets emulate classic arcade video games perfectly down to the most minute detail. The Magnum Monolith is also great for playing modern PC games. From stone age to space age, the Magnum Monolith can handle it all.
Magnum Monoliths are also much more than just arcade machines. They are also full-blown multimedia centers capable of playing DVDs, videos, music, and displaying pictures. They can even do karaoke, display eBooks and surf the internet.
Are the games on the Magnum Monolith exactly like the originals?: Yes, they are. The
Magnum Monolith uses emulation software to emulate the
arcade games perfectly. What this means is that rather than being a rewrite of the game for a different platform (that is a new program being written to act something like the
arcade game -- like many home versions of
arcade games for various game consoles) it is instead using the
PC inside the
Magnum Monolith to act like the chips present in the original arcade machine (which can vary greatly as most arcade machines were custom designed for the particular
game that they played). Because the
PC is acting like the chips of the original arcade machine, it is running the exact program code of the original
arcade game. Every tiny detail, even the idiosyncasies like
kill screens, is present.
Is the Magnum Monolith difficult to set up?: Not at all. The Magnum Monolith comes fully assembled. All you need to do is plug it in and turn it on. In no time at all you will be reliving your favorite arcade games.
Why do I need a home arcade?: It's much more than just a regular PC in a great big box. The Magnum Monolith is a true hybrid between an arcade machine and a home PC.
