The TAITO arcade properties that will be developed into exciting new original virtual pinball tables exclusively for play on Legends Arcade Platform products like the Legends Ultimate, Legends Gamer, and Legends Pinball include Arkanoid, Bubble Bobble, Elevator Action, Chack’n Pop, Darius, Front Line, Operation Wolf, Rainbow Islands, Rastan Saga, Space Invaders, The Legend of Kage, and Zoo Keeper.

“These beloved TAITO arcade properties, with their iconic characters and play mechanics, make perfect candidates for fun, new original virtual pinball table creations,” says Dr. Ping-Kang Hsiung, CEO of AtGames. “We look forward to working with TAITO on making these virtual pinball tables as memorable as their iconic inspirations.”
