In what should be the answer to any arcade gamer's prayers, XGaming, makers of the highly-acclaimed arcade-style joystick duo X-Arcade, have announced the availability of a new one-player model. Dubbed the X-Arcade Solo, this new peripheral matches the original X-Arcade in every way, but provides an easier-to-handle unit with only one set of controls.

Here's a clip from the press release:

 The X-Arcade Solo(TM) provides a life-like arcade experience at the touch of your fingers with hand constructed arcade design and indestructible arcade-grade parts. Developer and President, Shawn R. Walters of XGAMING, said: "With over 3 years of research and work in creating the best quality arcade joystick for gamers, our team is quite confident we have succeeded. The response in anticipation of availability has been staggering. We haven't been able to keep the two player units in stock at major retailers like Fry's Electronics(TM), and we expect even greater market acceptance with the Solo(TM)."

More information on the original X-Arcade can be found in IMG's review as well as XGaming's website.
