Just can't pat $150 for something I paid $50 for last year, no mater how fancy the controls are. And the Asteroids Partycade is only $180. Full size Tempest only cost me $250.

Do these ones have the wifi connection for online play, or no? Specifically for NBA Jam.

Thinking no but wanted to verify. I don't see it mentioned on the product page.

I don't see how it is humanly possible to play two players on these things. That arcade would be moving all over the place.

As someone who was actively looking at the bigger MVSC cabinet, this will do for now. Honestly, I love Thanos and the side cabinet art plus light up marquee makes it a must-buy. It's only $150 and for me, worth it to have one of the best fighting games without taking up too much space.

Hoping for some arcade advice. I'm building a 4 player Retropie-type arcade for my nephews. Not sure exactly what specific games, emulator, etc., I'll use, but it'll be arcade-style with the sorts of buttons, joysticks and games seen here. I already bought a 4-player kit on Amazon with all the buttons, joysticks, controllers, cables, etc. It'll run on a Raspberry Pi 3 or 4, and use an existing TV, so it won't be an all-in-one console like these.

I'm just wondering whether people, and especially teenage boys, tend to prefer the type where all 4 sets of controls are side by side in one long controller, broken into 2 controller units each with 2 sets of controllers, or 4 separate controllers so each player can sit on their own and not bump into the others.

Also, do people tend to prefer wood, plastic, acrylic, metal, etc, for the enclosures? I'm mocking everything up using cardboard boxes for the controllers for now, as I set up and test things, but eventually I want it to be nice and permanent and have a classy look to it.

I guess I could ask them but it's going to be a surprise.

I think all 4 lined up (like the old beat 'em up arcades) is most fun and most social.

As far as material, I'm pretty sure they're made of wood.

Such a big system for only one game.

There's such a big bezel towards the top of the system, why not reduce it, put a Larger screen and have much more game options. I would definitely buy it if a few changes were made.

An improved system would be good on longs trips for the kids.



Come on Arcade1Up
