Hasta La Gadget!

It’s becoming increasingly cheaper to make your own arcade machine, but if you’d rather leave it to the pros check out Dream Arcades’ latest offering, the Vision 32. The machine gets its name from its 32″ LCD display. It’s loaded with 140 classic games, but as an introductory offer Dream Machines is giving away more games and other freebies to early buyers.

The Vision 32 is based on a Windows XP computer with a 3.0GHz Pentium 4 CPU, 1GB RAM, 80GB hard drive, CD-ROM drive and Ethernet port. Its buttons and 2.25″ trackball are backlit. It also has side pinball buttons and a hidden keyboard shelf. Dream Arcades didn’t specify the resolution of the display, only that it’s high definition.

The list below ticks off some of the games pre-loaded into the Vision 32. Early buyers will also get a over two dozen casino and slots games, seven clone games – including a Donkey Kong clone, a Freeway clone and a Frogger clone – plus a DVD-ROM drive. You can also add your own games, play music and videos and go online on the machine.

Insert a coin in your browser and order the Vision 32 for $2,699 (USD) – $500 off from its regular price. The sale ends on 5/26. You can check out custom made Vision 32 units on Dream Arcades’ Facebook page.

Well, with Ultra Street Fighter IV, you know that you will be spoiled for choice with a total of 44 challengers being made available for you to duke it out against one another.

In the latest English trailer, you will be able to check out some of the sleek moves delivered by Elena, Rolento, Poison, Hugo, and Decabre, opening up a whole new world of pain to your opponent. Apart from that, there is also half a dozen arenas located across the world, waiting for players to start some bone crunching and back bustin’ moves.

Elena would go after her enemies with choreographed skills and talent, while Rolento the soldier is adept with his baton and collection of explosives. Mistress Poison uses her whip to great effect, while Hugo, the giant wrestler ought to give Zangief run for his money. Decabre relies on speed and stealth to strike fellow fighters. There is no exact release date for Ultimate Street Fighter IV just yet, but Ultimate Street Fighter IV is set to hit the Xbox 360 and PS3 from June onward, while PC gamers will have to wait until August.

Do you think you have what it takes to play Street Fighter and make some money from it? No, we’re not talking about professional matches where winners have the potential to walk away with thousands, sometimes even tens of thousands of dollars. Well the good news is that you can now try your hand at playing Street Fighter 4 online and potentially make some money from your wins! This is thanks to a recent partnership between Capcom and Virgin Gaming where both companies have announced their plans to make online money matches a reality.

As it stands, this will only apply to the console version of Super Street Fighter 4 and Super Street Fighter 4: Arcade Edition. PC gamers need not apply, unfortunately. So how it works is that gamers will challenge other games on Virgin Gaming’s website, agree upon the game’s settings, and then begin the match. Upon the end of the match, gamers will have to head on back to Virgin Gaming’s website to verify the results, attach an image, and upon successful verification, gamers will then have their winning deposited into their cashier to use again or to withdraw. In a way it does sound like gaming, but apparently as this is a game of skill, rather than luck, it would seem as though this could be a potential legal loophole. So, any gamers plan to put their money where their mouth is?
