COCKTAIL AND TABLETOP ARCADE MACHINES FOR SALE IN AUSTRALIA
TWO-PLAYER LAYOUT | 500-1,300 GAMES | COMPACT FOOTPRINT | FREE SHIPPING AUSTRALIA-WIDE
Cocktail arcade machines are the sit-around design from the original arcade era, where the display sits horizontally inside a table-height cabinet and two players sit on opposite sides. The controls are on each end, the screen flips orientation between players, and you play face to face. It is genuinely one of the best two-player arcade formats ever built, and it fits in a corner of a bar room or man cave without taking up the wall space an upright needs.
Our range covers the Cocktail Classic, Hankin, MKII and Pro models. All come with 500 to 1,300 pre-loaded games on commercial hardware. The Pro model is the top of the cocktail range: upgraded display, higher game count, better finish. The Classic is the entry point and still a proper machine, not a toy. If your setup has room for one piece of arcade furniture and you want something people can play together, the cocktail is the call.
COCKTAIL ARCADE MACHINE FAQ
What is a cocktail arcade machine? +
A cocktail arcade machine is a table-height cabinet where the display sits horizontally inside the table surface. Two players sit on opposite sides, each with their own controls. The screen orientation flips between players during two-player games. It is the design used in the original arcade era alongside uprights.
How many games does it come with? +
Between 500 and 1,300 depending on the model. The Pro has the highest game count. The Classic is the entry-level option with a solid library.
Does it work as an actual table? +
The surface is the display with a glass or perspex overlay. You would not use it as a dining table. It is a dedicated arcade piece that happens to be at table height.
What is the footprint compared to an upright? +
A cocktail machine is approximately table height (75-85cm), 80cm wide and 80cm deep. Significantly smaller floor footprint than a full-height upright. No wall clearance needed.
Is it two-player only? +
No. You can play single-player on any title. The two-player face-to-face layout is a feature, not a limitation. Single-player games play fine with one set of controls.
