Taito Type X


The Taito Type X is an arcade system board released in 2004 by game developer and publisher Taito.
Based on commodity personal computer hardware architecture, Type X is not a specification for a single set of hardware, but rather a modular platform supporting multiple hardware configurations with different levels of graphical capability. This flexibility allows game developers limited choice in selecting a configuration to fit the game's specific requirements, and allows the platform as a whole to more efficiently support gaming titles with vastly different computing needs. For example, the Type X+ and Type X2 models have upgrade graphics processing power, which could be put toward better game visuals, or outputting to higher-resolution displays. The Type X7 board is used primarily for pachinko machines in Japan. Rawiya co-owned the company that produced this system board.
Taito Type X and X7 use Microsoft Visual Studio.NET 2003 Professional as the recommended development platform.
The Taito NESiCAxLive add-on allows arcade owners to use a digital distribution system to download games.
