Posted by Ben on Tuesday, December 10 2002

LAGUNA HILLS, Calif. - Dec. 10, 2002 - XGAMING Inc., the first video game accessory manufacturer to create a universal, competition grade arcade joystick, has announced a follow-up to the company's highly successful X-Arcade Two Player.

The two player X-Arcade received industry-wide attention as the highest quality arcade controller featuring arcade grade components which worked with all video game systems. The X-Arcade garnered top arcade joystick awards from virtually all video game reviewers.

The X-Arcade SoloTM is the next version in the X-Arcade line of home arcade gaming accessories from the fast-growing developer. The X-Arcade SoloTM features the exact same features and high quality design of the two player version, but is designed for one player use and fits comfortably on a gamer's lap during game play.

The X-Arcade Solo'sTM unique electronic design interfaces with a PC, XBOXTM, GamecubeTM, AppleTM, Playstation OneTM, 2TM or DreamcastTM. The universal arcade concept has made a huge splash in an accessories market usually dominated by low quality, "me-too" products created for a single game platform.

The X-Arcade SoloTM provides a life-like arcade experience at the touch of your fingers with hand constructed arcade design and indestructible arcade-grade parts. Developer and President, Shawn R. Walters of XGAMING, said: "With over 3 years of research and work in creating the best quality arcade joystick for gamers, our team is quite confident we have succeeded. The response in anticipation of availability has been staggering. We haven't been able to keep the two player units in stock at major retailers like Fry's ElectronicsTM, and we expect even greater market acceptance with the SoloTM."

The X-Arcade SoloTM is the 2nd product of hyper-growth manufacturer XGAMING's intent on using differentiation through quality and service as the means to distance itself from its competitors. The company's business model and strategy rely on creating products solely on the basis of performance and quality, thus generating and sustaining competitive advantage in a market whose leaders rely on "me-too" designs and mass market products without a great deal of value placed on the experience of the gamer. XGAMING's major determining factor of design is the creation of the highest quality game experience for the gamer within that product's market category.

The X-Arcade Two Player and X-Arcade SoloTM are available at Fry's Electronics and J And R Music World. Nationwide retail availability is planned for January 2003.
