Press Insert Coin to Play and Relive the Magic of the Arcade

Step back into the golden age of gaming with the TinyBrights™ Insert Coin Cube Gen 2 by Chronic Concepts®. A miniature, fully interactive tribute to the classic arcade coin slot. Press the real Insert Coin To Play button and watch it light up with a nostalgic red glow as arcade inspired sounds bring every press to life.

Drop in the included token and hear it trigger a sound as it travels through the cube and exits the front chute, bringing the satisfying nostalgia of the arcade anywhere you choose to display it.

But Gen 2 is more than a retro display piece, it’s built to interact with your setup. Connect to the web app to customize your experience, or integrate the cube with a computer, emulator, arcade cabinet, and more. Whether it’s on your desk, bookshelf, game room shelf, or part of your gaming setup, the Insert Coin Cube Gen 2 brings a new level of light, sound, interaction, and nostalgia to any space.

Product Features

The premium injection-molded insert coin button really pushes in, lighting up with a nostalgic red glow and playing sounds inspired by classic arcade machines with every press.

Drop in the included token or a U.S. quarter and it will trigger an arcade sound as the coin travels through the cube and exits the front chute for a fully interactive arcade-inspired experience. Coin slot sound effect can be customized.

Includes 15 pre-loaded arcade sound effects.

Keep the original sounds, add your own, or create a custom mix of both with storage for up to 20 total sounds (approximately 40 seconds of audio total, depending on audio quality). 

Personalize your device with ease using our browser-based configuration app. Manage your sound library, customize keyboard emulation, enable additional features, and fine-tune your setup all without installing software or downloading an app. Simply connect via USB cable to any PC, Mac, or Linux device and open our configuration website.

Easily wire the cube directly into an external USB encoder, arcade cabinet, PC power button, or other interface. Inserting the coin or pressing the Insert Coin button triggers the output. (External button cord sold separately)

Connect the cube to your computer or emulator, each button press or coin insertion can send a standard keyboard key input of your choice. Use it for putting credits into your emulator, game start, push to talk, or anything else you can imagine. Cube functions as a USB-HID keyboard device and works with Linux, Windows, Mac, Retropie, & MAME. Compatible with most systems and software that support USB keyboards.

Insert the included plug to turn the cube into a tiny piggy bank that holds up to 5 arcade tokens or U.S. quarters. Optional Piggy Bank Mode temporarily powers the cube on for easy coin insertion before automatically returning to sleep mode after 10s of inactivity.

Fine-tune the sound for your desk, office, game room, or streaming setup with 5 volume levels, including mute.

Easily customize the light from soft ambient glow to full arcade brightness with 5 lighting levels, including light-off mode.

Includes a USB-C charging cable and runs on either rechargeable battery power or USB-C for flexible use anywhere. Enjoy up to 24 hours of battery life on low brightness, 12 hours on medium, or 5 hours on high, with a 2–3 hour recharge time, or keep it connected to USB-C for continuous use.

Automatically powers down after 4 hours of inactivity to preserve battery life. Auto-shutdown can also be disabled.

Available in retro-inspired color combinations including Black, Black w/ Red Trim, Black w/ Neon Green Trim, and Black w/ Yellow Trim.

Our products are designed, assembled, and hand-finished in our Colorado studio where new ideas are always in motion.
