I know the AtGames Legends Gamer Pro has been covered to death on RUclips, and I'm probably not going to add much in the way of discussing the main unit. I did want to expand on the device being used with Steam since I think that having all the functionality at the lower price point makes the LGP an impressive value.
I also wanted to cover the device to have a baseline for a build I'm doing for the next series of videos on an "AtGames Projectorcade". I decided to make this based on the poorly received Arcade1Up Projectorcade that was released over the summer. Stay tuned for the upcoming videos and subscribe so you don't miss it :)

Great steam run through. Thanks for the info! I must try this
Thanks for the video and hello from Scotland! 😎
Hey John, thanks for checking out the channel!
Somebody who is not terrible at 1944!
I just got this from an online store, ordered it today. My current place I just don't have room for the big cabinet or the mini. I figured this would be a great way to play this on my PC setup I have and just move my kb out of the way when wanting to play. Thanks for the great review!
That’s great! It’s perfect for your scenario. There is literally nothing the cabs do that the Gamer Pro can’t plus you can find hundred of new games on PC that play well on it. Glad the video helped.
Really good video.
Love your down to Earth approach.
Mine gets delivered 12/5/22.
Thanks for checking it out. Make sure to grab the latest Fans of Sauce build.
@@FactorofGames definitely, doing that tomorrow when I get my USB stick delivered.
(Mine got delivered today, a day early)
Got it set up, waiting for USB stick tomorrow.
Nice setup man, I rather have this over a regular cabinet.
Why would you say that? Wouldn't you lose part of the arcade experience?
Very helpful and informative video, thank you.
Really excellent video. I was not aware that you could connect these to PCs....awesome idea. Thanks for the share!
Thanks for the feedback Bill. They do pretty well Steam and there are even more Modern games that play great on arcade control decks.
Well, now I want one. So Thanks
Anytime Dan😁 Regardless of if you already have cabs in the house or just don’t want to spend a lot, it’s a great device that has lots of flexibility. The next couple videos will talk about an alternative use for the gamer pro, so some additional options for using it. Thanks for checking it out!
buying now
Still haven't used all its features.....but Im enjoying it....Has 150 good games built in. Joysticks are what you'd expect, track ball is cheap, but functional.
Agreed. It’s a solid work horse.

Love the rifles :D
Yeah, those ones are actually replicas that my Grandfather gave me. Thanks
i love coinops. they are incredible.
True! Pairing CoinOps with FansOfSauce builds just blow the value of the Legends products up. Thanks for watching!
it seems to be working great on the Legends menu, when i go into coin ops controller doesnt work even though it wired
Hey C Mag, interesting issue. Not 100% sure what’s up, but have you tried plugging the Coin Ops X usb directly into the Legends Core and using the the controller in Bluetooth mode to see if it works? I know in Bluetooth mode there is/was an issue with the back button exiting Coin Ops but the controller should work otherwise. That way you can start to remove items to find the real issue.
Could I use this as arcade buttons with the Retrokat Xpro system or Recroomasters Xtension 2 Player Controller “Emulator Edition”
Hey nice video ! I own a legends gamer pro with coinops x. I was trying to figure out is there a way to make favorites list of games on coinops x ?
Yes! find the folder on your coinopsx drive named cox
open the playlists folder and add a new file 0 - favorites.txt
open the playlist_art folder and add some art for it
You can then just add games to the list manually, or by pressing Y on the ALU
Hopefully they release an updated version with 2 spinners
You might be able to find one of the actual deck with the Spinners on Ebay from an ALU where someone swapped it for the Gamer Pro. The all you need is the Legends Core.
@@FactorofGames the alu one will work as a standalone like the gamer pro?? If so then play that's cool.
Mine worked but after I connected it to my computer it stopped connecting to core. It still works with my pc but does not even work with core even if using the usb cables.
The reason it won’t connect to your Core with a USB cable is because Bluetooth take priority once it’s paired to a device, either PC or the core. If you want to use it via USB with the core, you need to press and hold P1 button for 3-5 seconds until the blue light by the power button turns off. Then do the same for P2. Once the blue lights are off you can hook it to your core via USB and it will work.
@@FactorofGames I tried that it didn't work. I left it sitting for a few days and it started working again.
Can you download some of the popular arcade games like Donkey Kong, Pac-Man, Galaga, DigDug?
Can I use the ALU deck with the Legends Core? Does the ALU deck have Bluetooth to connect to the Core or do I have to buy the Gamer specifically to make this combination work? I have the ALU so it would be great if all I had to do was get the Core. Thanks for your great content!
Hey Andrew, The ALU 1.1 deck works the same way that the Legends Gamer Pro deck. Both have the same inputs on the back of the deck and both have Bluetooth, which you can turn on/off by pressing and holding the P2 start button on either deck. The legends core will work via male -to-male USB or Bluetooth with the ALU 1.1 deck.
Thanks for checking out the channel!
Awesome Video! Can it plug into Xbox or Ps5?
As far as I know, it would not be compatible with the consoles.
Tutorial would be great 👍🏻
Can you add and deletes games?
REALLY NICE🤜🤜🤛🤛😎
Thanks, Fixstar!
thanks for the heart😎
Does the free version of ArcadeNet allow online multiplayer and chat?
Hey Eric, to my knowledge it doesn’t. You have to pay for the monthly subscription to get Multiplayer and chat.
@@FactorofGames Good to know, thanks!
Thanks for posting however I'm discouraged. My gamerpro won't work on my ALU when I play games directly via otg (doesn't recognize LT or RT only recognizes 6 buttons) or streaming via byog (the controller doesn't move at all when on Steam). The gamerpro works fine when not attached to the ALU. Atgames community tried to help via TeamViewer but no luck as of yet... Any suggestions please?
Hey Willy, try this. Hook up your original ALU deck to the ultimate and power it up. Then make sure Bluetooth is turned off on the ALU deck by pressing and hold P2 until the blue lights by the power button go out. Then turn your gamerpro deck on without it hooked to anything, just running on the battery. Make sure your Legends Core (the puck) is turned off and unplugged; it can’t have any power. Then on the Gamerpro deck make sure Bluetooth is on (you should see the two blue lights blinking by the power button. If you don’t, press and hold P2 until you see them blinking.
Once you’ve done all this, then go back to the ALU, go to settings, go to advanced settings, go to Wireless Pairing and hit refresh. You should be something like Control deck - P1 and Control Deck - P2. Select Control Deck - P1 and click connect. Your Gamerpro deck should now be paired to the ALU via Bluetooth on player one. Give it a minute and hit refresh and do the same thing for player 2 on the Gamerpro.
At this point, you should be able to control everything on the ALU with the Gamerpro. That includes your Steam pc via BYOG and it should be configured as an Xbox controller. You can shutdown the ALU, hook up the Gamerpro and power it back on. Make sure Bluetooth is still on when you power it up and you are good to go.
Good luck
Thanks for checking out the channel!
@@FactorofGames thank you for the very quick reply,. I'll follow your instructions to see if that works and thanks for the help I really appreciate it and keep you posted! Subbed
@@FactorofGames so your instructions worked to a T (thank you for that) but the control deck still wasn't recognized in BYOG other than pressing the home button to exit so just to confirm I reconnected the original deck to the ALU and that also wasn't recognized in BYOG so I think I have a brand new bad unit that I'll have to return. Thx for the help and the content FOG 💪
Hey Willy, glad your getting closer. Have you tried configuring the controller in Steam? If not, you may want to try that as well.
The first thing you’ll want to test is if the trackball is recognized on the Steam PC as the mouse when you connect via BYOG. If that’s the case then all you need to do is go into the Steam settings and configure either deck in Steam, basically you just mapping the inputs that Steam understands to the buttons on the deck.
Ultimately, if the trackball won’t move the mouse then there is some issue beyond just configuration.
@@FactorofGames yeah man unfortunately it's a deeper issue because the trackball doesn't register and move as well. The only time either deck functions is when I press the home button to change display, latency, exit byog, etc but not actually once on Steam and I have Steam controls setup for Xbox. It works great with the puck no issues just ALU.
Hi very informative video on this product, so i have the usb adapter you have and i plug my coin ops usb stick into it and my deck into it because i wanted the controller to be wired . i then turn off blue tooth, and with it wired the controls are very slow to respond, not sure what im doing wrong . The coin ops usb stick is working though?????? help
How do you feel those arcade sticks will hold up to some old school fighters?
What’s up John! They’ll hang in there, but you may want to replace the springs with something stronger. I believe the AtGames products ship with like 2 or 4 pound tension springs on the sticks. I like 6lb springs, so both the Legends Ultimate cabinet and the gamer pro have been upgraded to 6lb, and it’s simple to swap.
@@FactorofGames I wanted to add a 4lb spring to my legends gamer mini arcade stick but I couldn't get the c clip off to swap it out. I think I have a newer one because it came with a octagonal restrictor gate.
Great video! Can I connect this to the super console x pro? (Using this device as a controller for that console). Thank you!
Hey Marcelo, I’m not 100% certain in the Super Console X. I don’t own one personally, so I can’t test it. I don’t believe I’ve seen a Key Mapper for Android before, so that would probably present a problem with it supporting Android based devices in terms of plug-n-play. It takes Steam (or JoyToKey) to remap the keys in windows. I’ve tried connecting it via bluetooth to an Apple TV, and it wouldn’t recognize the button presses, which is not a huge surprise since Apple has limited controller support options beyond Xbox, Playstation and MFI controllers.
@@FactorofGames ok , i bought it on ebay for $150. should be cool to add some games and play. i like the wireless feature. i have also the pandora 3D arcade. (but i have 3 kids, lol) so you know that we all want to play together. it would be cool to play 4 with the 2 arcades.
You can always pair 2 Bluetooth controllers to the Legends core and play some of the 4 player arcade games from the FansOfSauce build via CoinOpsX
@@FactorofGames nice. I’ll give it a shot
I could not get the controller setup with Steam. I do the button setup but no place to save it. Says Cancel and Cancel & Exit at the bottom. I cant figure it out currently.
Hey Cheezy, sorry I’m behind on comments this week. Did you click on each of the sections of the controller configuration, even if you didn’t setup an input? Steam has acted a little strange with the Legends decks recently. I set one up last night and had to click on each field from top to bottom to get the Save option to appear at the bottom.
@@FactorofGames no worries I will try again another time.
No spinner but at the very LEAST the morons "finally" figured out that USBs go on the back and not just above the controls.
No, i mean it. Have you seen their Pinball and full sized arcade machine? All the USBs are on top and in the wrong places and a guy has created a company to fix their mistakes :)
