Unless you had a CRT TV or a Sinden light gun, Time Crisis has been largely out of reach for most fans of the arcade shoot-’em-up classic. That’s all set to change, as Dashine Electronics has announced GAIME, a new device that comes with an “AI-powered” light gun that the company claims can work on modern-day LCD TVs and comes preloaded with Time Crisis.
Pricing starts at $90 for the base unit and $120 for a deluxe version that adds in a pedal controller, but there is no release date yet for the launch of the GAIME. Dashine Electronics plans to showcase it at the Tokyo Game Show this week, and on its official website, the company says that the GAIME uses “state-of-the-art” AI technology to create a seamless plug-and-play experience.
“The AI Gun is engineered to self-calibrate by intelligently detecting your screen, offering unparalleled accuracy and ease of use. It works from various angles and distances, supports all kinds of common screen sizes, [and] can be tilted to shoot–it is designed with the casual gamer in mind.”
For rail-shooter fans, this could be an affordable way to play Time Crisis or any other games if they’re ported to the GAIME. There are other solutions–like Arcade 1Up’s Time Crisis cabinet if you can spare $750–or the Sinden light gun, from which the Time Crisis cabinet gets its technology.
This is sold at a similar price to the GAIME and works primarily for PC, while PS1 and PS2 consoles are supported via a physical mod.
