Atari Missile Command Recharged Pro 2 Player Arcade Cabinet by Alan-1

The Atari Missile Command Recharged Pro 2 Player Arcade Cabinet by Alan-1, where precision-engineered arcade heritage meets competition-ready modern play. Atari's Missile Command returns to the arcade floor for the first time in 45 years, rebuilt from the ground up with exclusive enhancements, two dedicated player stations, and deep online tournament integration.

Crafted for those who seek the authentic arcade experience, whether in a home game room, a traditional arcade, an arcade bar, a theater lobby, a free-play venue, or on a commercial route, the Recharged Pro delivers the trackball-driven intensity of the original with a layer of modern depth that keeps players coming back.

About the Manufacturer Alan-1, Inc.

Alan-1 has been engineering licensed arcade cabinets from its factory in Tooele, Utah since 2017. The company works directly with IP holders including Atari to produce genuine, original arcade releases rather than licensed skins over generic hardware.

Alan-1's custom Video Arcade System and 400 i/oT input-output board are designed and built in-house, and every cabinet carries an ETL listing for the United States and Canada. Owning an Alan-1 machine means owning a piece of American arcade manufacturing at a moment when almost none of it is left.

Missile Command Returns to the Arcade After 45 Years

For the first time since the original 1980 cabinet, Missile Command is back on the arcade floor as a dedicated upright machine. Alan-1 partnered with Atari to bring the game back with gameplay that honors every core mechanic of the original while adding a full layer of modern enhancements.

Players take command of a nuclear missile defense base, using the trackball to aim and three buttons to fire defensive missiles. The objective is unchanged: keep your cities alive as wave after wave of atomic threats descends from the sky.

The 45-year gap makes this cabinet genuinely rare. There is no other current-production dedicated Missile Command upright available today, which gives this machine a prestige that multi-game cabinets simply cannot match.

Two Player Stations with Authentic Trackball Controls

Each of the two player stations is equipped with a black trackball and three player buttons, mirroring the control layout of the original Missile Command cabinet. Both stations are fully independent, allowing simultaneous two-player competitive or cooperative play.

The trackball is the defining input of Missile Command. Cursor speed, targeting precision, and the split-second decision of which base button to fire all flow through it, and Alan-1 has built each station to replicate that tactile experience faithfully.

For operators on a route or in a high-traffic venue, dual stations mean two players per game, higher throughput, and stronger revenue potential per square foot of floor space.

The Big Red Button and Alpha-1 Protocol

Each player station includes "The Big Red Button," which triggers the Alpha-1 Protocol when pressed. Activating it wipes every active threat from the screen in a single moment of relief, useful when an incoming wave becomes overwhelming.

The Protocol comes with a limited number of uses per game, so players must decide when the situation genuinely demands it. That decision point adds a layer of strategy to a game already defined by split-second choices.

In a venue setting, The Big Red Button is a physical crowd moment. Players watching from behind will react to it, and that social energy is exactly what keeps a cabinet drawing attention on a busy floor.

Exclusive Gameplay Enhancements: All 50 U.S. States

The Recharged Pro includes a full set of exclusive content additions developed by Alan-1. Players can defend all 50 U.S. states, each with its own state-specific background art that changes the visual context of the mission from one stage to the next.

Additional enhancements include restored DEFEND CITIES and THE END text and effects from the original game, new raid sounds, new voice overs, improved power-ups, a special ending, and Alan-1's own MLeS Integration for score tracking and tournaments.

The state-specific backgrounds give returning players a reason to keep progressing. A player in Illinois who has only ever seen the Illinois background has a concrete goal: get far enough to see every state.

MLeS Integration: Global Competition With No Online Fees

The Recharged Pro ships with full Major League eSports (MLeS) integration built in. Players create a free Alan-1 account, download the MLeS app, and connect their scores on this cabinet to a global high-score leaderboard and live tournament ecosystem.

MLeS supports league points, friend lists, team formation, and Alan-1 Championship Tournaments with prizes for top performers. The cabinet communicates via wired or WiFi connection, and there are no ongoing online fees for operators or players.

For operators, this is a retention tool. A player who has accumulated league points on your machine has a reason to return to your location specifically, rather than any other Missile Command cabinet on the circuit.

Hand-Made Cabinet Artwork by Alejandro Radio

The cabinet artwork was designed and hand-crafted by Alan-1 studio artist Alejandro Radio. The artwork wraps the full upright cabinet and is matched by an art bezel surrounding the 32-inch screen.

The result is a cabinet that reads as a finished, intentional piece from across a room. It is not generic side-art-on-MDF. It is original illustration commissioned specifically for this machine and executed by an artist working in the Alan-1 studio.

32-Inch HD Display With Dim RGB LED Lighting

The Recharged Pro features a 32-inch HD screen with dim RGB LED accent lighting around the display and art bezel. The lighting adds visual atmosphere to the cabinet without overwhelming the screen or the surrounding environment.

At 32 inches, the display is large enough to be clearly visible from a standing position at the cabinet and from a few feet back in a spectator position. HD resolution keeps the enhanced artwork and state-specific backgrounds sharp at full size.

The dim RGB lighting is particularly effective in low-light venue environments such as arcade bars and lounge-style venues, where ambient lighting is already reduced and the cabinet's glow draws natural attention.

2.1ch Audio System

The cabinet includes a 2.1-channel audio system that delivers the new raid sounds, voice overs, and soundtrack enhancements through a stereo-plus-subwoofer configuration. The low-end channel reinforces the impact of incoming missiles and defensive blasts in a way that a simple stereo pair cannot.

Audio presence matters on a noisy arcade floor. A cabinet that can be heard from two positions away draws more walk-up plays than one that blends into the background noise of the room.

Coin-Operated With Free Play Selectable: Built for Venues and Routes

The Recharged Pro ships fitted with a coin door and coin box, making it ready for commercial deployment straight out of the crate. Free play is also selectable, giving operators full flexibility to run the cabinet as a revenue-generating coin-op or as a free-play unit in lounges, rental properties, and free-play arcades.

The compact upright footprint, at just over 31 inches wide and 29 inches deep, fits into venue spaces where a larger cabinet would not. That size advantage, combined with coin-op readiness and the MLeS player retention system, makes the Recharged Pro a practical choice for both established arcade routes and new venue deployments.

No bill validator or specific cashless system is included or published for this model. Operators should contact Alan-1 or their distribution partner for guidance on payment hardware configurations.

Assembly

The Missile Command Recharged Pro arrives fully assembled. Setup requires no tools and no multi-step build process.

Once the cabinet is uncrated and positioned in its final location, simply plug it in and it is ready to play. Two people are recommended for moving and positioning the cabinet given its 300 lb installed weight.

For connectivity setup, connect via wired ethernet or WiFi to activate MLeS integration, score tracking, and tournament features. Alan-1's support team is available for any configuration assistance after delivery.
