Atomiswave

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Atomiswave is an arcade system board consisting of a system board and accessories from Sammy Corporation. Atomiswave is based on the Sega - Dreamcast hardware and was launched in 2003. Various games can be used with the hardware via modules. The control panel is also modular, which means that various configurations can be implemented. For example, two joysticks, pistols and steering wheels are possible.

After SNK no longer wants to use its aging Neo-Geo for new developments, the company decided to publish new episodes of the successful The King of Fighters series for this hardware.
