I got a bunch of these at Christmas last year:

I have them plugged in 1 socket per game so I can turn on single games. I am still looking for channels E & G.

Yup, I currently use the 'AM466' appliance outlets for my games, the 'TM751' transceiver and the 'HR12A' remote. The IR receiver is called the 'IR543' and the decora-style light switch is the 'WS12A'.

Ok, so I need an AM466 for each game. I have the remote since I'd use my Harmony.
In this case I would not need the TM751, right? I'd need the IR equivalent which is the IR543. Is that right?
Do you have an ebay link to the IR543? That guy's webstore is worse than Bob's, I can't find anything.

Rather than use a Haromony, get X10's remote, it blows the Harmony away and it is cheap:

Also they make an app for iphone and android to control X10 devices too:

This kicks ass and is only $19.
Well you need the home part that is $30 too.

You could do 1 for 1, but these are rated for 15 amps each. I have mine grouped in 2-3 machines per module as I only wanted 8 modules to make the remote cool. I printed the game marquee's on the remote as the button labels. It's pretty flexible based on what you want.

This was what I did with the X-10 remote.
Not as sleek as the Harmony, but I like it!

Also this is cool, control your x10 devices with voice commands:

It's a good thing we don't live next door, I use the "K" house code too!
It would suck if you were setting a high score on Crystal Castles when I hit button K-6 at my house to turn off my arcade lights.

You mean K14.

Good catch. I didn't see he had the switch set that way. We are safe, we can now be neighbors.

What would be pretty cool if someone had there games hooked up to a rack of knife switches like this:

Lol, K-6 was correct.
I use the range switch as a kid safety turn off.
All my games are on 1 to 8.

I have A through G of these myself and love them. THey work great, have never had an issue. And I like having the key chain on them for each game's keys.
