The amplifier controls can be altered or switched off entirely with the small amplifier located

Playing Games
Note: Every time a game is loaded, it is loaded ‘from fresh’, meaning that high scores are not
saved between games unless saved manually by the player using the saving and loading
system.
Once you've selected your game and it's loaded, you can begin a 1 player game using the Player
1 Start Button. If the game can be played with additional players, then each player will need to
press their respective start button to add themselves (Using the Player 2 Start Button).
If the game requires additional “Coins” (such as during a continue screen), you can add these
using the blue COIN button.
Pausing and Exiting A Game
At any point, you have the ability to pause the game using the red Pause Menu button. The
pause menu gives you a few options, including save/load functionality, resuming the game
you're currently playing or exiting the game back to the main games menu.
Navigate this menu using the joystick, then make selections using the Player 1 A Button.

Saving and Loading a Game
Please note that this functionality is not possible on every game.
The system allows you to save your progress at any point, and then return to that point at a
later time. This is achieved by saving a “State”.
About “States”
On this ArcadePro system, a “State” can be described as a specific point or moment when in
the game. When you load a state, you will return in the game to the exact moment where you
saved it.
States can be saved, or loaded at any point of the game.
On this system, there can only be one state per game. Each new state you save will overwrite
the last.
How to use
To access the save and load system, pause the game you’re currently playing using the Pause
button, then save the state navigating to “Save State” option with the joystick, and selecting
with the Player 1 A Button.
To load the last state you saved, pause the game using the Pause button, then load the state
navigating to “Load State” option with the joystick, and selecting with the Player 1 A Button.
Your game will resume from the last state you saved.

Troubleshooting:
Wrong Language on Startup
There’s a slim chance that upon arrival, your machine will not be in English. This is an
occasional leftover from checks during production and is easily rectified.

2. Scroll down to Language (7th option from the top)
3. Press A until the language changes to English
4. Exit as normal
No Sound
If there is no sound on your ArcadePro system, check to see if the amplifier on the system is
switched on, turned up and that the cabling going into the amplifier system is securely
connected.
If problem persists after these checks, contact us.
