    This has been amazing. Played on almost non stop since mid December. My 6 year old is learning the classics and enjoying that his parents are good at something important to him.

    Grabbed it on sale ($100 off). Very solid, very well made. Note that that Arcade1Up was in the process of added two additional games (Dec. 2020). Good, classic games, fun.

    Quite easy to assemble, even alone. Solid feeling and well built system with a clear screen for gaming with no viewing angle issues. I like the joysticks and buttons as they feel solid. I think the unit is about 6" too high for a cocktail table system, but otherwise a great system. The games play well and changing games is pretty simple. Solid enough to not fear kids playing on it. It reverses screen for two players and has two sets of controllers (as expected) and is fun for family gaming.

    This thing has my favorite games from my childhood corner arcade days. My son LOVES Dig Dug, my wife loves Pac Man, I like them all but my favorite is Galaga. It was easy to put together, the artwork on the sides and the top looks great, the screen seems small when you first see it but when you play a game it actually feels about perfect. This thing now sits in our living room where everyone can play it, and everyone in the family regularly does. The way 2-player works is nice; players take turns and the screen flips so that each player is looking at the game in the correct orientation. We love it!

    Fun Across the Generations

    Assembly was straight forward and took about 45 minutes. All parts were working and in perfect condition. This is SO MUCH fun. I grew up on this game and other games of the era. My 14 year old son and I have spent the last hour laughing and enjoying each other's company connecting over this cocktail table game. It definitely breaks down the generation gap. Best purchase I've made in a long time. Curb side pick up was quick and the staff member who brought it out to me was very friendly.

    I bought this as a Christmas present for my wife. She was a huge Ms Pac-Man nut back in the day. We have had a lot of fun playing the games over the past few weeks and our young adult daughters are also enjoying the games and some competitive family game nights. Set up took about 45 minutes with the help of my daughter (you definitely need an extra set of hands). The instruction manual is easy to follow. The instructions for how to switch between games and to end game you are playing to switch to another game could be a lot clearer but we figured things out.

    Want to start off by saying our first order never arrived (2 wks went by) but Best Buy absolutely stepped up when I notified them that we never received it...they managed to get it to us the day before Christmas (they did it in 3 days!) My son was super excited and we got it set up in like 1/2 an hour. Brings back so many good memories for my husband and I. I think we’re going to play it more than the kid. We were playing it after he went to bed. We’ve only tried 2 of the 8 games...but with Covid we will get lots of time to try out the other 6 games.

    This arcade is actually better than I expected. It’s hardy, not flimsy- it takes a while to put together but not that hard and the games are fun.

    Just like the arcade game. I enjoy playing Mrs. Pac-Man, Galaga and Dig Dug. There are a few other later versions of those games on here too but I bought it for those in particular. If you live those games and want it in a arcade cabinet this is great! Only two things I wish it had faster firing that some arcade games have on Galaga and stools to use with it. I saw they sell stools on the Product Website. Also, the cabinet is light so it moves around a bit while playing so don’t put a drink on it while playing.

    Arcad1up's Perfect Cocktail Cab

    What a great cab! I own several Arcade1up machines, with this being the first cocktail table. I was concerned about the scale height, but for me and my family (5'4" - 5'10") it's a comfortable play on a regular chair. The game lineup features unique offerings for this form factor, especially Dig Dug 2. Controls feel as expected with Arcade1up, though I personally have never had any issues with response or playability. If you're going after a competitive experience, definitely check this one out!

    We bought this as a Christmas present for our 7 and 9 year old kids. It was easy to put together late Christmas Eve and was ready to play in the morning. It has been a wonderful family game that we have all enjoyed. I think with the many games that are included this will provide fun for years to come. We did have to buy 18" stools to go with the game because its not at standing or kneeling height. Graphics are clear and controls easy to navigate.
