    Already had the Gen 1 Street Fighter, but decided to get this for the online play. So far it has been very fun to be able to find other people to play against. Build quality is great. It is taller than all my other games, but it looks great in my game room. Great list of games. Some that I had never played before. Good value. The only thing I didn't like is that the buttons are not the greatest on this machine. Will be replacing them soon.

    Nice at $300. Had my eye on this for a while but was debating on the newer cab. This one was nice because the uniform color and stool. Sound bar could use an amp.

    Brings back the old days of the arcade

    The stool was much more difficult to assemble than I would have guessed. Sitting on it causes a groaning sound to come out of the material, making me think that it won't last all that long, but it is comfortable. The cabinet is smaller than a real arcade machine, but I think that's pretty well known by this point. The sticks are fine, the buttons feel good. The assembly process is not fun; in particular, attaching the left wall of the cabinet to the rest of the assembly is maddening. A word of advice: make sure the marquee is in place and place that part of the left wall first before proceeding. All that said, I really like this machine. The games bring me back to the mid to late 90s when I went to the arcade after school.

    Best looking A1U cabinet to date. The game selection is good, but debatably not as good as the Capcom Legacy cabinet. Do not buy primarily for online gaming, very few people are playing online. The biggest flaw is the sound. It is very low, so plan on modifying the speakers.

    This cabinet is spectacular. The design, included games, and quality are excellent. Of the 5 cabinets I have purchased so far, this one seems to be the overall favorite for both solo and multiple players. If you're thinking about entering the world of home arcades, this one comes highly recommended!

    The online multiplayer works perfect so far. It looks great and plays great. The fact that you can buy this great looking arcade cabinet and play flawlessly online is amazing. It’s like being a kid all over again for me. Get it now and come get some

    Definitely nostalgic. Takes me back to the arcade on Saturdays at the mall. I miss the magic of the Mall and the Arcade. It took about 2 hours to assemble. I don’t expect it would take as long next time I assemble one.

    I ordered this and they delivered it right to my front door. I said it up plugged it into my LA in playing online with a friend across town. It’s awesome I hope they re-released a bunch of the other games that are not online capable right now.

    Love this Arcade. Came with a stool as well, which I wasn't sure if it did or not, so having the matching stool is a Big Blue Plus.

    How future cabinets should be

    Great looking cabinet, love that’s its taller now, all cabs going forward should be taller. Control deck angle is nice but it makes it sit lower now so not that comfortable playing standing if you are a taller individual. Great game lineup, at this time it doesn’t seem like a lot of people play online, mostly just the street fighter games and even those I hardly see matchups in the lobby. I really like the Capcom Sports game but in a month have been able to play someone online one time, game play was great though. Maybe if Big Blue ever goes on sale then more will pick it up and play online.

    Got this when it was on sale (200 off) ... Beautiful recreated 3:4 sized replica coin op. Would recommend. About a 2 hr build. The monitor is nice, could be bigger, but overall not bad with the features of additional games and wifi/online play. The addition of a rgb light on the controls add a little flash and pizazz... The only thing I can complain about would be the controls are a little loose in game, but for about 60 more dollars I am going to replace the buttons and sticks with Sanwa sticks and led buttons which should fix the feel of things.
