Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the game selection and find the arcade machine fun and good value for the money. However, customers are negative about the size of the unit, citing that it is smaller than expected, and some found assembly challenging and the control panel slightly uncomfortable. The light-up marquee is a frequently praised feature. While most found it easy to use, some experienced issues with the joystick and controls.

    My kids and husband love the mortal kombat games however the other games are not very fun, they are super hard for my little ones, I’ve even tried playing them and couldn’t get passed early levels. My guess was the controls were not doing what I wanted them to do!

    This is the pinnacle of arcade 1up cabinets. Price is good, games are plentiful, screen and image quality look really good and the decals look great. Sound is "meh" but easily forgivable considering the rest of the value you're getting. I feel Arcade 1up went downhill after this generation. Grab this one if you ever see it!

    Games are great, however the cabinet was not manufactured properly, The screen did not fit in the pre-drilled slot for it. I did eventually Jimmy things to make it come together and it finally fit together... Although I took away one star due to this issue, Completely unacceptable‼️

    I love the nostalgia. This has been very cool to have at home as long as you have the space for it. It can become an addiction to build a home arcade. MK is great, but rootbeer taper has been a battle between my wife and I. Fun stuff. I recommend it.

    We enjoy this as the games remind me of my childhood and my kids enjoy playing them as well. My 6 year old and I played Rampage for hours! The only issue I really have is they should of made the area with the buttons flush with the sides. It has a little lip which can make it a little uncomfortable. Still worth the purchase!

    Aren’t we all addicted to these cabinets? This is my second 3/4 scale cabinet & along with my 3rd countercade collection. This cabinet has that one flaw everyone is pointing out , the marquee gets in the way if you’re over 5’9.

    Buy it on sale. After having it for awhile I kind of wish I hadn’t bought this thing. It’s awesome and works very well, but the only good games in this thing are the Mortal Kombat games. The old school games aren’t very fun.

    Great walk down memory lane with high quality cabinet. It took about 45 mins to put together and was very easy (my first one, would likely take less time for the next time).

    Comes with some stellar games. Yes, Paperboy is a little hard with this arcade stick set up but my family and I have been really enjoying the games to make the purchase worthwhile.

    Fairly easy to put together. All the controls were fine but went ahead and upgraded them to Sanwa brand joysticks. Even better now.

    Awesome but the novelty of it fades away quickly. If youre okay with that, then its totally worth it. Nice piece of furniture to add to your livingroom even if you won't play it much
