System

The NESiCAxLive system consists of an

Taito NESYS online network to allow arcade operators to download games from Taito's servers directly to the arcade cabinet; previously arcade operators had to purchase new game boards (as well as dispose of old ones) to run a new game. Games can also be downloaded to a local server to allow quicker distribution to machines, as well as allow rapid swapping in and out of games according to player demand. Taito allows arcade operators to download games free, as part of a revenue sharing system, with income split with Taito and the game developer.[3][6] The original NESiCAxLive system was originally exclusively available in Japan,[6] however there has been a gradual introduction to the US market. [7]

Taito introduced the NESiCAxLive 2 platform in June 2017.
