Tokyo, Japan – October 08, 2025 - Tassei Denki, a leading international provider of gaming hardware, consumer technology and innovative accessories, announced today that preorders have now begun for the highly-anticipated G‘AIM’E TIME CRISIS Lightgun, a revolutionary new breed of hardware, designed to bring classic arcade Lightgun gaming back to the home in time for the 30th anniversary of TIME CRISIS!
Tassei Denki first made waves earlier this summer upon launching their Kickstarter campaign for the new Lightgun system. After fully funding the campaign in a matter of minutes, the Kickstarter ended with pledges exceeding $1.1 million dollars, almost 25 times their original funding goal! Now, Tassei Denki are moving forward with their pledge to bring real arcade action back to home consumers in time for the Holidays.
Holding several in-person experiential events across the UK, Japan, Germany and the US over the summer, as well as a preview tour for lucky members of the media; gamers and experts agree that the G‘AIM’E TIME CRISIS Lightgun brings the much-loved classic back to modern gamers in stunning fashion. No adapters, no complex set up and no problem handling virtually any size TV or display, the only thing missing is a coin-up slot!
Designed under license and supervision of Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. and multiple members of the original TIME CRISIS arcade team, the G‘AIM’E TIME CRISIS Lightgun, features the full arcade ROM for true authenticity and realism. Lightguns of old fail to work on modern displays, as they relied on old CRT technology to operate, but by utilizing A.I. driven technology, Tassei Denki has created its own, custom hardware solution featuring a high-resolution camera in place of the traditional infrared technology used in Lightguns of the past. A modern solution for a modern problem, the G‘AIM’E Lightguns calibrate with ease and work on virtually any display.
