Last year, Replicade wowed the gaming community by releasing a 1/6 Scale version of Centipede by Atari through a Kickstarter campaign. What turned out to be a monstrous success, they now have an incredible lineup of games coming soon. The second installment to the project is Tempest. One of the most original vector games of the times. Check out the information below and get in on a great gaming campaign.
Replicade X Tempest 1/6 Scale Arcade machine available on Kickstarter now!
Classic Arcade Fans Alert!
During our RepliCade x Centipede campaign, we revealed that our next 1/6 scale machine would be none other than Atari’s arcade masterpiece, Tempest. The time has arrived!
In our first 24 hours, we’ve had a tremendous response, even exceeding our own expectations. In fact, we beat our original RepliCade campaign, hitting $50,000 in just 8 hours!
Tempest was released by Atari in 1980 and was an instant arcade classic. Now, we are creating the ultimate collector’s piece in highly detailed 1/6 scale!
Our RepliCade x Tempest machine is constructed of wood and metal and features a custom-made Spinner Knob controller with two interchangeable size options: 1/6 scale for show and a larger knob for better control during play modes. Accurately reproduced FIRE and SUPER ZAPPER buttons feature modern gamepad quality.
All RepliCade Amusements run the original ROM you remember playing back in the arcade, and our Tempest machine is no exception!
