The surface of the table is made of glass and a monitor is installed underneath. Control panels are attached to one or more sides of the table and usually consist of an arcade stick and buttons. During that era in Japan, they could be found in places like coffee shops, and featured different games, including Taito\u2019s worldwide smash hit <em>Space Invaders<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The prototype cabinet revealed by Ittoku called <strong>Full HD Table Type Arcade Cabinet Switch Docking Model<\/strong> appears to repurpose a ready-made cabinet to which they have added a 22-inch Full HD LCD monitor. The cabinet features two sets of six-button layout controls, allowing two people to play together. There also seems to be a function that \u201cactivates\u201d the A button whenever a 100-yen coin is inserted. The cabinet includes a headphone jack and USB ports to allow for the use of external controllers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u30d1\u30bd\u30b1\u30fc\u30c9\u3000\u30b9\u30a4\u30c3\u30c1\u5c02\u7528\u30c6\u30fc\u30d6\u30eb\u7b50\u4f53\u30b3\u30f3\u30c8\u30ed\u30fc\u30e9\u30fc\" width=\"1160\" height=\"653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/kd4Qk6HVKRw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As seen in the video above, the Switch is connected to the table via a USB cable which outputs the display to the monitor. The control panel connection is also likely done through this same cable. The six arcade buttons are mapped to A\/B\/X\/Y\/L\/R, while the red and yellow buttons in the center of the panel are mapped to the + and &#8211; buttons. The ZL\/ZR and Home buttons are located to the left of the control panel, on the side of the cabinet. There does not appear to be any button mapped to the Switch\u2019s Capture Button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The video shows the games <em>Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers<\/em>, <em>SEGA AGES Gain Ground<\/em>, and <em>Ninja Jajamaru-kun<\/em> being played without issue. The Switch has a wealth of games that would be suitable for a table arcade cabinet, including the Arcade Archives series. If you grab the <em>Space Invaders Invincible Collection<\/em>, then you could play the original game just like on the arcade tables of old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"ja\" dir=\"ltr\">\u3053\u306e\u30c4\u30a4\u30fc\u30c8\u3092\u307f\u3066\u8a66\u4f5c\u3057\u307e\u3057\u305f\u3002<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/u8vgPMXPSf\">https:\/\/t.co\/u8vgPMXPSf<\/a><\/p>&mdash; \u30d1\u30bd\u30b1\u30fc\u30c9 (@pccade) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/pccade\/status\/1557850470596562944?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 11, 2022<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><figcaption><font size=\"2\"><strong>Tweet Translation<br><\/strong>Tweet by @pccade: We saw this tweet and thought we\u2019d try it.<br>Tweet by @nondaranomura: I seriously wonder if there will ever be a Switch peripheral that lets you dock it to a whole arcade cabinet lol ?Something like this would be perfect for Arcade Archives! \u2764?<\/font><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Ittoku is the operator of PCCADE, a shop that sells arcade cabinets that have been remodeled and installed with PCs. PCCADE uses a variety of old cabinets for their products, including Namco\u2019s Noir cabinets, Sega\u2019s Blast City cabinets, and game-specific cabinets. They even offer table style cabinets, meaning that this Switch cabinet is something well within the field of their expertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Switch cabinet is still just a prototype and is not available to purchase like their other products. The PCCADE <a href=\"https:\/\/pccade.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">website<\/a> features a wide range of different arcade cabinets, so those interested should take a look.<br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:12px\"><em>Written by.
