It's going to be 399 at Walmart except without the stool and light up deck protector which are both of dubious value

Also, no one is rushing to their wallet to horde mini arcade machines in a pandemic

Maybe if it came with a 48 pack of Charmin it would be a good deal, lol

If someone is going to pay $1000+ it will be for a real NBA Jam arcade machine with the full player roster and not an emulated one built like Ikea furniture with zero long term collectable value and a cut roster.

Add sanitizer a 50 pack of disposable mask and 5 pack n95 and I'm in for 1!

While I would love to have this, I have the arcade legends ultimate from Sam's club, all you do is pop in a flash drive with the arcade games you can download off the net and play it. I was playing nba jam te on it yesterday. It's crazy because the psx version has better graphics than the arcade.

The arcade1up machines are more for people who want the aesthetic of the original cabinet art, etc, as opposed to just a playable ROM

That being said $499 is overpriced for what you are getting here.
