Arcade Game Maker Debuts New Machines that Accept Bitcoin

February 3, 2014 3:54 PM EST
Liberty Games is making the arcade more accessible...to those that prefer paying with Bitcoin.

According to a post made on the company's blog, Liberty Games introduced the Bitcoin Arcade Machine. The company went over a few of the techy details:

There was a bit of different wiring involved in getting the pulse from the PiFace to work with the arcade coin-mechanism, but apart from that the big change here is that we’ve added to our server and interface software that controls the connection between the Bitcoin network and the physical device. As many arcade gamers will tell you, sometimes you want to load up with multiple credits at once, to keep on gaming should the worst happen and you loose all your lives. So now we’ve added in the feature to be able to pay multiples of the price per play and have these translated into credits.

We’ve also added a few tweaks to the back-end management system, such as being able to set how many confirmations you would like to wait for until the credit(s) are released, as well as slightly more advanced reporting capabilities.


In any case, Liberty Games said it was rather speedy to use the Bitcoin Arcade Machine.

Bitcoin is just about flat today at $808.40. Liberty Games releases a video on the Bitcoin Arcade Machine and that video is embedded below:
