Fun multiplayer game with endless lives. I would like it better if the game would save where you left off. I haven’t tried the online multiplayer function. The bowling game is a little tedious but fun once you get the hang of it. Didn’t take too long to assemble. I got this when it was on sale, and the riser, stool, and sign are a plus.

I LOVE this game. I used to play it in arcades all the time. I am so happy they made a home version of this!! My inner child was delighted!! I am so happy my son gets to enjoy this game now too! It is wonderfully built and the game is just as you remember it.

Took about an hour and a half to put together. For the price, it’s very close to the quality of cabinets that are a few thousand dollars. Made a great addition to the garage!

One of the best Arcade Beat-Em-Up Games of all time, along with a fun Arcade Bowling title. The stool and metal Poster are amazing as well. This is a welcome addition to my A1Up roster.

Graphics, sounds, look, all match what I grew up seeing in arcades at 3/4 the size. Took about two hours for me to build out of the box but it being my first Arcade1up I was slower than a veteran. Fun as heck just wish it had more than two games. Bowling is amazing though and so much fun to play.

Loads of fun and full of childhood memories. The gameplay is like the original ones found in the arcade and the bowling is fun too. My kids and all of their friends love coming over to play. The graphics are pixelated like the original

Purchased on sale for $299. Great product and very well packaged by Arcade1Up. Simpsons bowling is way more fun than the regular game. Two hour build for one person. Comes with a quality stool and huge tin sign as well.

Perfect 4-player game. This is a “must-have” for “The Simpsons” fans. But, be careful of the thread from the Joystick bolt. Sometimes the thread for the Joystick knob does not functionally fasten. Use a receipt of this product in case of additional repairs.

My son loves The Simpsons, therefore when I saw the Arcade on sale I had to get it for him as a gift. He has a master bedroom and placed the arcade in his room and enjoys it very much. I am very pleased

Each wave of Arcade 1ups seem to go up in price. One would hope the quality goes up as well but I don't see much of a difference for the price difference. I love the Simpsons game and got this one on sale. Even at the sale price I still think it's priced too high. None of the components are very high end and the materials used are still cheap. I was expecting the vinyl wrap to be better quality by now but it is still thin and small areas were already peeling up right out of the box. Also had many areas it wasn't cut correctly and left small triangular spikes along the edges as well as some glue globs on the area where the control panel sits. This one still uses the same thin mdf board and components as the other cabinets that cost half this price with the exception of wifi, lighted marque (which is just a piece of the the same vinyl over clear plastic with a light behind it), and it being 4 player. I do like it but don't think it should be more than $400-450 like the original 4 player turtles cabinet was. I would recommend waiting for a price drop of $500 or less.
I have seen reviews complaining about sound not working on the games, the bowling in particular...I had the same issue but noticed under the bowling game on the menu it states *full game coming soon. When you hook it to wifi and run the update it downloads the full version of the bowling game which fixes the sound, as well as updates the menus with all new Simpsons type font and looks a lot better.
