CHICAGO, Feb. 24, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- iiRcade
Inc., the ultimate connected arcade machine that allows gamers of
all ages to play their favorite retro and modern games in arcade
style at home, is adding Windjammers, initially developed by Data
East and officially licensed by Paon DP Inc., to the iiRcade
platform.
Windjammers, also known as 'Flying Power Disc' in Japan, was released in 1994 on the Neo Geo
arcade system where players throw power discs to try and score on
one another.
"At the time of its release 27 years ago, the Player vs. Player
Fighting Game was one of the most popular arcade genres but it
required a lot of complicated control skills. We designed
Windjammers as a new Player vs. Player Sports Game that could be
played by all ages in a fun way with easy use to controls," said
Tomo Adachi, Game Designer of
Windjammers at Paon DP. "I am so happy that the game is still loved
and played by many fans today and iiRcade looks like the perfect
device to play Windjammers on."
Six playable characters from around the world can be used as
players face off to become the best jammer in the world. Each
character differentiates from the other challengers with their
dexterity, techniques and throwing speed; while six different
courts can be selected, from the beach to concrete court.
"Windjammers is a fun, competitive game that plays much like air
hockey," said Jong Shin, founder
& CEO of iiRcade. "The game is an addictive arcade sports game
that makes a great addition to our lineup. A perfect blend between
sports and a fighting game."
iiRcade enables playing nostalgic retro arcade games as well as
breathtaking modern games on a premium arcade cabinet for both
online and offline multiplayer gaming.
All games are officially licensed and available at affordable
prices, and new titles are continuously added to the growing
iiRcade store library. The iiRcade Store can be accessed on phones
