Customer Ratings & Reviews

Finally, we have a Pac-Man unit that has 12 games in it and makes it one of the best cabinets for sale for the price point of about $400.00 retail. I have to say, get this unit if you are a fan of the Pac-Man games themselves. The only one that is missing from this is Jr. Pac-Man, the one with the scrolling maze that goes horizontally. This is my 4th Arcade 1Up cabinet, and it looks outstanding. The game play is outstanding as well. Once you are on the game select screen showing the 12 icons, be sure to go to the "Settings" screen for each one. Instructions on how to do that are visible and press the appropriate button. You can make adjustments to each game, starting lives, level of difficulty, etc. You could not do this on previous cabinets. I own the Ms. Pac-Man 4 in 1 and there is no such settings menu. The games will SAVE your high scores as long as you do not unplug it from the wall. The joystick is a bit clicky sounding when maneuvering as opposed to the original arcade unit where it was fairly silent. The coin op black box on the front of the unit is painted on, it is not a sticker. The custom riser is fantastic and really adds to the overall look. I am over 6 foot, so it is definately a plus. Now on to the assembly. The owners manual and assembly manual are both outstanding in detail. Whatever you do, when you are ready to put the screen into the unit, take OFF the plastic on it first. The screws on the screen have plastic underneath it as well, so, LOOSEN those a bit so that when you take off the plastic, it will come right off no problem. Then, you can retighten the black screws back to position. This will save you a big headache of having plastic around each of the screws. Now, the metal screws on the game board where the buttons and joystick are located, you can take a black permanent marker or black model paint and cover the surface heads. This way, it will be black and won't stand out so much on the black surface. Looks great. The tiny screws that go into the plastic cornered parts are a bit of a pain to get in, so take some time on those. I built the custom riser first, and then started the unit. Give yourself about 3 - 4 hours for all of it. If you are a first time owner of one of these, you may break the assembly time up into sessions. It gets tedious if you are doing it yourself. Make sure the final side panel fits secure into all the wooden pegs, etc, before tightening the screws. All in all, a great cabinet to own for years to come if you take care of it. The custom riser and light up marquee look great and the overall look is outstanding. Delivery was outstanding as well and nothing was missing from the box itself or damaged. Highly recommended!

We wanted to get something special for my autistic son's 40th birthday. He has arthritis in his hands so video controllers cramp his hands quickly. Due to his lack of coordination he doesn't get much exercise. The doctor was concerned about his lack of motion and the possibility of fluid in his lungs from spending most of his day in a prone position. Most of the time He sounds like he's out of breathe. His younger brother who lives 3 doors away thought this would be perfect as he used to take him to the Mall to play in the Arcade. We were about to buy one from another vendor that only had 4 of these games when I did an internet search and found this jewel for the same price with free shipping! My younger son and grandson assembled it in about 30 minutes. We are leaving it at their house so my son has to walk over there in the evening after they get home from work. Not only does he get excerise walking but if he goes over at dinner time he knows he has to eat everything they serve if he wants to play. He takes turns with his nieces and nephews standing up for over an hour sometimes. His wheezing is practically gone. Ironically the grandkids find the games challenging enough to play with him. The online ordering was simple and secure and it arrived in a matter of days at my son's house. I will definitely be ordering from Best Buy when we get him another model at Christmas time!

Bringing back the Good Ole' Days and no quarters needed. Not only does this PAC MAN arcade game look official but it has twelve games loaded in it and they are the SAME EXACT GAMES that you used to play in the arcades! NO, They are not imitations! They are the Same Exact Games right down to the graphics and game play. I've played it quite a few times and it is great, from PAC MAN to Dig Dug and Galaga and Galaxian! This is definitely a break from the Xbox and PlayStation blues, no more respawning and never ending play. You get 3 lives or ships and when your lives are up or ships are destroyed your done. You get rewarded for playing better and getting a higher score by getting more lives or ships, not for hitting the reset and respawning at the same level. The entitlement crowd won't like these type of games because you can't buy more lives, better armor or better weapons. You've got to play on equal terms like everyone else and the only way you get better is by actually getting better. Love this game and being able to get it from Best Buy with free shipping at a great price, makes it better. I almost feel entitled.

I just bought this for Easter weekend and it was a hit with my family. The game itself is fun to play with 12 games including big hits like Galaga, Galaxian, Dig Dug etc. Super easy to set up with basic tools (philips screwdriver) for hours of fun. The marquee lights up which gives it that same feel when playing the full size machines as a kid. The only complaint I have is the compressed fiber board is easy to dent and mark up, so if you have kids they may unintentionally damage it. Still for the price this is a great buy for any game room.

I love this arcade game! I know its a pac man style, but I really like the Galaxiga game. I was good back in the day and I still got it! I am a 51 year old grandmother who put the set together with my 8 year old granddaughter who held and handed me a few pieces. It took me a couple of hours. The directions could have been a little better, but that's what you tube is for...... Great buy! You will have a lot of fun!

I bought this as a gift for my grandkids. They love it. I also bought this for my homw Arcade. Good deal with more games. A family hit in our arcade. I didn't use the riser yet. It is the perfect size for my grandkids without it right now.

The games it comes with is why I got this particular game system and plus it looks nice. It gives you a variety of 12 different games in which I like. I bought this for myself because back in the day, I used to love playing Pac-Man and Galaga. My kids swore that they would not be playing it when I told them that I was going to get it. They are loving it and are trying to beat my high score in pac-man now. It's not as big or tall as I thought it would be which is a good thing for me because I only had limited space in my loft to put it in anyway and it fits perfectly. Ordered it to pick it up in an hour and it was ready for pickup in about 15 minutes after ordering it. I went to go pick it up with curbside parking and the workers came out promptly to bring my item. I am very pleased with the whole experience from the excellent customer service and the arcade game itself.

This delivered to me on March 30th. I love the games and it plays great. I had actually never even heard of some of the Pac-Man versions...but I am learning them. The biggest positives...the lighted marquee & the audio are great. Now some pointers for the assembly...if you are putting it together completely by yourself, and its the first time you're assembling one of these, you should count on 3 to 3 1/2 hours (maybe split that up over two sessions). Also - if you are good with a variable speed power drill...that would be a plus on some parts (if not...not a huge deal...a regular phillips-head will work...but you'll get tired). Watch out for "Screw C"...they are tiny and frustrating to attach the plastic brackets. All-in-all, I'm very happy with it and the 12 games!

This is my 2nd cabinet and its fantastic! Look great. Feels just like the original. I personally think this pac man has the best design. Love the light up marquee. Does not feel cheap at all. A must buy.

What a great idea!!! This game is exactly made the I remember playing many years ago for quarters, now I can play for free anytime i want. Hubby loves it too. We did have to get help putting together. But once assembled, we can't stop playing it! We love pacman, but it does have about 11 other games like Galactica,etc to play aa well.

This is just cool. The top actually lights up! It has 12 games in total. Has a volume control too. I wasn't sure how it would arrive. Needless to say it is in a box, and some assembly required for sure. Took me 90 minutes to put it together by myself. Love it! I want the Mrs. Pacman next...

This is my first Arcade1up purchase and I was not disappointed. I have experience building custom cabinets and the quality of this PacMan cabinet is very good. It was simple to assemble, and was actually a bit larger than I anticipated. The art work is amazing and it makes me feel like a kid again. My only critique is the buttons are not the best quality but they work fine. I might swap out the buttons in the future. Overall I definitely recommend this cabinet.

Lots of fun Bought this for our outdoor patio game room Big hit at parties Good sound Little hard to put together

Love it! Brings back old memories of the 80's dumping quarters by the handful. Took a little over an hour to set up but not too difficult. Just take your time. Graphics are great and the sound is more than loud enough at halfway. Check out my installation video on youtube.com. search my channel 1-8 Kevin.

Great Cabinet for the price. Led me to buy two others already (Marvel vs Capcom & Midway Legacy). Love that it’s medium sized and comes with riser. I take it out of the riser when my young son wants to play and back into riser when I play. They are not heavy. However, I doubt most people will move it in and out like me lol

When I was a little kid I used to love pacman I always dreamt of having I was dreamt of having my own arcade pacman and now as an adult man and now as an adult I can actually achieve that it's awesome

Exactly what we had hoped for. For the money you can’t beat this unit. My family is very competitive so we have challenges a few times a week. We love it. Oh and I have the high score…. Just sayin.

This unit has a few games including Galaga which was one of my favorites. The games feel and play just like the original arcade games. The unit was fairly easy to assemble and everything fit nicely. We have the Golf game too which is also fun.

Great game at a great price!!! Nit only is this exactly as described, but it was shipped quickly. It takes some work putting it together but it’s more a time consuming exercise rather than difficult. Well worth the savings!!!

I ordered this arcade for my birthday to get 10% off. It was worth it. My son put it together and didn’t seem to have any trouble. It has 7 different games you can play.
