Yes, the games are emulated using the exact same coding as the original arcades, so they play just like you remember. Even the quirks, glitches, and cheats from the originals are intact. For example, patterns to avoid ghosts in Pac-Man still work, and if you know the sweet spot in Centipede where you’ll never die, you can still sit there and rack up the high score!

At Simple Arcades, we carefully curate our game library to include titles for all ages, ranging from E for Everyone to M for Mature ratings, along with some unrated or indie-developed games. We strive to remove inappropriate or adult-themed content, but with tens of thousands of titles, a few may occasionally slip through. We encourage customers to review their gaming or gifting needs before purchasing. If you discover an inappropriate game, let us know—we’ll guide you on how to remove it and update our library to prevent it from being included in future systems.

Our arcades include thousands of games thanks to their large internal storage. The games come from sources like the Internet Archive, a non-profit digital library that offers a vast collection of classic arcade games available for free download.
