How to Use Your 705Arcade Arcade Machine
This quick guide will help you get the most out of your 705Arcade machine. Whether you’re playing with the built-in arcade controls or adding extra gamepads and accessories, this page walks you through everything — step by step.
Using the Built-In Arcade Controls
Each 705Arcade machine comes with commercial-grade joysticks, buttons, and trackball (depending on your build). Controls are pre-configured to automatically work with thousands of games across all systems — from arcade classics to modern emulators.
- Joysticks and buttons mapped for all players
- Trackball works in games like Golden Tee, Tiger Woods Golf, Marble Madness, Missile Command
- Coin and Start buttons are already mapped
Connecting Extra Controllers
Want to play 4-player games or use Xbox/PlayStation-style controllers for systems like N64, Dreamcast, or Switch? All 705Arcade models include built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for wireless controllers, and you can also connect wired controllers through the machine's USB ports.
- Use our front-end menu to temporarily disable arcade controls
- Plug in Xbox, PS4, 8BitDo, or other USB gamepads, or pair compatible wireless controllers
- Controllers auto-map in most systems (we pre-configure the major ones)
- Great for modern 3D systems where dual sticks or triggers are required
Tips & Troubleshooting
- If a controller isn’t working, restarting the machine fixes it 99% of the time
- Some issues may be due to emulator-specific settings — contact us for help
- Press both Player 1 Coin/Select and Player 1 Start together to safely return to the main menu
