OUR STORY

We opened a classic 80's arcade and soda bar in August of 2017 called Flynn's Retrocade. If you are in Utah, please come check it out! Our favorite game is Atari's Star Wars — so naturally our first product is the Atari Star Wars Flight Yoke Controller. We've stayed true to the original design, but improved it by upgrading the nylon gears and thumb buttons with aluminum.​
Our USB flight yoke adapter allows M.A.M.E. builders to use any Atari / Alan-1 flight yoke without cutting the harness.​
Future products include deflection boards for WG6100 Vector monitors, unique WG6100 deflection board daughter boards that remove the bottle cap transistors from the monitor case and provide additional cooling, and anything related to CRT tubes. Please check out our dev blogs and schematic links to learn more.​
Our arcade games division is now in full production. Our goal is to bring back the magic of the 1980's through innovation, fun gameplay, and friendly competition. A video game, more than anything, a game! Games make life more rewarding--especially when shared with friends and family.
We're passionate about making fun! Please reach out to us with any questions or comments. We're looking forward to connecting!
