September 2023
NOD-A Information
This year marks AtGames 5th year since they launched the Legends Ultimate in 2019. Below are some points from their presentation:
- 2023 is our 5th year since we launched Legends Ultimate in 2019 and a new milestone year for us to add Legends 4K to the ongoing Legends HD line. Thank you for investing with us and growing together with us!
- Following our tradition, we Celebrate and Honor Owners by announcing new services and offering great deals on the 5th NOD Autumn Sale.
- We are committed to making our product ecosystem and customer experience best in class and will continue to invest in 2023 and beyond!
| Wagner’s TechTalk Note: A new service is being introduced, called PinballNet. This new service allows you to play available pinball tables locally (not streamed) to your Legends Pinball 4K machine. You have the OPTION to purchase tables or utilize the PinballNet service. Keep that in mind, if that is something you’re interested in, pricing, etc. is below for both. Your purchase of a Legends 4KP includes 2 months of Legends 4K PinballNet subscription (access to over 140 Legends 4K Tables). Before making a decision, you may find it helpful to see the Legends 4K itself. We recently concluded Parts 1-5 of the EVT Series (pre-production model). You can find all the Community Q&A, videos and additional content here. While there will be differences (i.e. see here), for the most-part, will be very similar (technology-speaking) to what was shown in that series. |

AtGames & Rare Ltd.
The full press release is below:
| AtGames® and Rare Ltd. Announce a Partnership to Publish Original Virtual Pinball and Games based on Action-adventure and Fighting Franchise Games on the AtGames Legends Arcade & Pinball Platform LOS ANGELES, June 29, 2023 (Newswire.com) – AtGames®, a leader in interactive entertainment products, today announced that classic action-adventure and fighting properties including Killer Instinct, Battletoads, Cobra Triangle, and Solar Jetman will be featured on AtGames’ Legends HD and Legends 4K products. In total, 19 all-time classic titles will be available to publish as game packs and selected for embedded inclusion on the Legends Arcade & Pinball Platform in Legends HD and Legends 4K formats. Additionally, AtGames will develop and publish new original virtual pinball tables based on selected properties from classic Rare franchises and the shared-world pirate adventure, Sea of Thieves, exclusively for play on the Legends HD and Legends 4K products. “Rare is always looking for best-in-class partners to help bring our iconic characters to life in new, exciting ways,” says Adam Park, Head of Brand & Licensing at Rare. “Placing them in the new Legends Arcade & Pinball space AtGames has created provides an exciting expansion and innovation, and we look forward to seeing our fans’ reaction to this exceptionally engaging platform.” This new partnership, brokered by Rare’s licensing agency Tinderbox, builds on previous AtGames initiatives that have brought extensive libraries of classic arcade video games and legendary digital pinball tables, as well as original tables, to their range of exciting home arcades and pinballs devices for authentic gameplay, video, and sound. “These classic properties have delighted fans for generations,” says Dr. Ping-Kang Hsiung, CEO of AtGames. “We are humbled to partner with Rare and Microsoft on making these classic action adventure and fighting franchise properties as memorable as their other iconic media adaptations.” The new game packs, as well as virtual pinball tables based on iconic Rare properties, are expected to start to appear on AtGames’ Legends HD and Legends 4K Arcade & Pinball Family products in late 2023. |

AtGames to develop and publish NEW Original Virtual Pinball Tables, including:
- Killer Instinct
- Sea of Thieves
- Battletoads
- and more
- For exclusive play on the Legends HD and Legends 4k Products
What is Legends 4k?
To clarify the question on what exactly is Legends HD (confirmed the following with AtGames): Legends HD refers to the Legends Ultimate series + Legends Pinball series + Core series + Core Max + Gamer series. Yes, game packs and pinball tables stated to run on Legends HD will run on the existing HD products mentioned above, as well as the upcoming Legends 4k devices. For those products that specifically state 4k, they will only work on the 4k series of products but may have equivalent HD versions (depending on the product). On a similar note, the e-store link layout and rebranding identifies the Accessories rebranded to Legends HD Accessories, and Legends Universal Packs to Legends HD Universal Packs (see top bar here). When the 4K products are available, similar branding will be made to clarify.

FAQ
- When will the deals be available for purchase? A: Deals will be available for all customers to purchase at 6 a.m. PT/8 a.m. CT/9 p.m. ET on 2/23 on the AtGames EStore.
- Will I see NOD deals on the E-Store before NOD starts? A: No. NOD Deals will only be available for all customers at 6 a.m. PT/8 a.m. CT/9 p.m. ET on 2/23. We invite you to
review the deals in this presentation deck to prepare for your NOD purchase. - Re: Buy one ALU get one BitPixel 60% off discount from MSRP, how do I make the purchase to enjoy the best discount?
A: Please go add one ALU in the cart first, and then add one BitPixel in the cart, you will be able to see the Buy One Get One discount info in the shopping cart. - Re: If I buy one ALU, buy one BitPixel and one side panel art, can I have the Buy One Get One Discount on both BitPixel and the side panel art?
A: No. Buy One Get One Discount is something you need to Buy One first. If you buy only One ALU, you can enjoy either Get 60% off from MSRP on One BitPixel or 50% off from MSRP on One Acrylic kit or One select side panel art. If you want to get the benefits of the discount on both BitPixel and the side panel art, you will need to add TWO ALUs in the cart. - When I purchased Hero Deal #11, I added one ALU 1.2 in the shop cart (promo price $429.99) and added one BitPixel and its discount rate showed 20% off which is different from 60% off as said in page 27. Why do I see different discount rate in the shop cart?
A: The discount rate shown in the shop cart is based from its current NOD promo price, not from its MSRP. BitPixel’s MSRP is $199.99 and it’s NOD promo price is $99.99 for single unit. In the case of Hero Deal #11, the BitPixel’s deal price is $79.99, which is 20% off from the current NOD promo price, 60% off from MSRP. Buy One Get One deal gets better discount than single item. - Can the VIBS board for ALP be compatible with ALP Micro?
A: No. Each SKU has its own VIBS. - What happens if items are sold out during NOD? A: Suggest you to continue to make the purchase. We will keep refilling the inventory soon and fulfill the orders on a first-come-first-serve base.
- Are all the pinball volumes/packs and game packs universal/compatible to all Legends arcade devices? A: They are all compatible to all Legends arcade devices except for: 1) the Zaccaria Pinball Volume 5. Zaccaria Pinball Volume 5 currently supports only Legends Pinball and Legends Core Max; 2) Re: the Gottlieb pinball packs, please see page 16.
- There are three Taito Pinball Volumes and three Taito Pinball Packs. Are they different?
A: No. They are actually the same pinball tables with the same prices. The only difference is the volume and pack names/images on the E-Store and on the menu of AppStore X. We keep Taito Pinball Volumes for customers who made partial purchase(s) among the three Volumes and want to purchase the remaining Taito Pinball Volume(s). - When can Dr. Seuss Pinball Pack 2 be available?
A: Please see page 6 and 15.
