Arcade1Up - Deluxe Edition 12-in-1 Arcade Cabinet with Riser - Black

The cabinet was well packaged and it took longer to unpackaged and locate the parts than the actual assembly process. It was very easy and fun to assemble. The spinner knob rubbed against the cabinet and did not spin correctly. After adding a couple of spacer washers to a couple of screws, adding tape to the spinner knob, and lightly sanding/polishing the hole in the control panel the spinner now spins freely. There are now plenty of YouTube videos demonstrating this process. The games are now very fun to play and the cabinet looks great. It brings back great memories from the early 80’s.

My favorite game growing up was Centipede. I never thought I would be able to play it whenever I wanted, with the trackball. It works really well. The game is mostly easy to put together. This version comes with the riser, it’s kinda of short without it. Id think if you were over 6 foot tall, you would need to use a chair. The only thing I would improve is there is no way to save your high scores. If you turn it off, it goes away. I know this is technically how the arcade version was, but most arcades I went to left the games on for long periods of time. I just think in 2018, I should be able to save my scores. I bought the deluxe one because I thought if I was spending $200 anyway, I might as well do the extra $100 and get the riser and 12 games total. I like Millipede, Tempest, and Missle Command. To be honest I haven’t messed with the other games that much. This looks great in a room and is an instant talking point (if you’re old like me anyway) lots of nostalgic fun with 100% authenticity.

Very fun machine with no breakdowns 2 years later. However, the stock spinner is not good at all. I replaced that easily with the spinner on the glens spinner and the track ball as well. Each game is very fun. Only centipede and asteroids deluxe though keep your scores saved top 3). I recommend this machine if you like the classic games and if you are willing to spend 50 bucks to upgrade the spinner.

I purchased this as a Christmas gift for myself. It came very quickly and once it arrived I was able to assemble it within an hour. As soon as I turned it on I noticed that the screen was acting weird and that it looked as if it was trying to resize the picture. After attempting to play it the image on the screen shakes from side to side and makes it very irritating. It does this in all the menus and games and is sporadic. I called arcade1up and after spending over an hour on the phone I was told that I would be shipped a replacement LCD assembly and it could take 4-6 weeks to arrive. I feel like I have been taken for roughly $400 and now I have to wait until way past my return window just for some parts that may or may not fix the issue. I googled this issue and have found that many people are having the same issue. Many people have filmed the issue so I know it is identical to what I am seeing. Hopefully arcade1up gets me taken care of. Other than the screen issues the cabinet and controls looks and feels really good. I want to support them because I love what they are doing but it’s hard to do when you pay for something that doesn’t work.

This machine takes me back to the time I used to stand in line at the local arcade with 5 quarters in my pocket ready to get it in!!! I highly recommend this and any other Arcade1Up product!

Fun to play. It’s like having an old time arcade in your own home

This 12-1 takes me back to my days as a kid in the 80’s. In the comforts of my home I can be a kid again. I have two other Galaga and Golden Tee and I plan to buy a few more for my man cave. I highly recommend buying this retro games to bring you back to the old school days.

Having a blast, easy to set up and play. My three year old son can play without struggles with a console control. Great art work. This is also a big hit with guests when come over.
