I have an original Super Pac-Man and an original Ms. Pac-Man/Galaga (Class of 81) with 25" CRT, both full size dedicated uprights. I even keep it on quarters. I bought Super Pac-Man 12 years ago for $999, it's now worth minimum $2500. I just bought Class of '81 for $1000 during COVID, he needed $, I can get $3k for it, but I'll never sell, I love my classics. If you're looking for a classic move fast, CRT's getting hard to find, collectors don't want LCD's.
I've never seen that horse racing game, that's hilarious XD
i know it is kind of off topic but do anybody know a good website to watch newly released tv shows online?
@Koa Alijah Flixportal :D
@Brodie Russell Thanks, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) I appreciate it!
@Koa Alijah Happy to help :D
XrisM is the BEST arcade machine builder in the world. He’s the guy that Shaq and Jay Z call when they want an arcade machine. No two machines are alike and there’s like a 2 year waiting list. The guy is an artist. He’s also invented a lot of the stuff arcade machine builders use today. He’s the Elvis of arcade machines builders. THE KING.
Maaan ,, i really want to own my own Arcade Machine one day
but they're too pricey =(

If your really that determined, if your a kid, try to negotiate for doing chores that you get money and if your an adult/teen try to get good grades for good paying jobs.
I’m tryna cop they like 500 dollars cad
just build a MAME cabinet for like 600 buck
can you make the evo so you pay per play?
Got my Christmas list sorted this year
You did it you earned a subscriber!
My MAME system is on an early 2000s 32 bit Windows Vista home PC (yes, I know it's junk but it was free and I managed to get it to work with my limited skills.) I have a SlikStik Classic 2 player arcade console with 2 eight way joysticks, 1 four way joystick, 1 tornado spinner and a large LED illuminated trackball with 24 buttons, projected onto 120" projector screen on my basement wall and a 250 watt sound system...
Hi. Thanks you for this video.
I'm looking into buying a baby pacman arcade game for my home. Considering all the points you listed, how much do you think it might cost in US dollars to buy? And would this specific game hold its value?
Thank you!

what is the music that plays during the video, so chill
Does anyone know how much an original atomic runner in original condition and still working is worth. The only thing it doesn't have is the original coin box
Hi wants to open a game parlour with all this machine ...need guide
nice variety thanks for sharing
how do I find a mame arcade game
im specifically interested or in the market of buying a house of the dead dedicated machine for my home
Any of them works too, wether its the first, second, third, or fourth game doesn't matter!
I was thinking of that if i want to buy time crisis 2
Now I can see how curved screens would do well without having to use multiple monitors to extend the viewing angle. :)
i wanna buy an In The Groove 2 cabinet, but i just can't find one, not even a DDR or Dancing Stage that i can convert with OpenITG...
My local arcade has one but it's not willing to sell it...
I'm afraid we can't help you with one of those at the moment, but we come across all sorts of things all the time. Whereabouts are you based? If you're in the UK it's worth calling in and raising an enquiry with our sales team, then we will continually look for one for you and contact you if/when we have found one. Our number is 01454413636. Many thanks.
So... it's legal to sell roms on a system like this?

i have a question. im 11 and i love pac man and i am feeling like spending all money to have it. does it use alot of voltage that you need to upgrade? is there version for low voltage?
Hey there,
Pac-Man is a great game that we've had a lot of fun with in the past as well. All arcade machines will plug into a wall socket that you would normally find anywhere, even at home.
Whilst many enjoy playing Pac-Man on the original machine, you can find the game in all kinds of places nowadays, even on Google! Have fun playing!
Price of Arcade game machine
hello nice video i have pagman 20 aniversary do you know how is the cost ? come whit galaga
That's a great machine. Well worth keeping that. They come up in the US for about $1,000 but never in great condition if they have been used commercially. Home use only models rarely come up so I'm not sure what they would sell for - may be around $2k?
gosh i love coctail machines...reminds me of this vietnamese restaurant i would go to and they have a bunch of cocktail arcade machines

I have one question. I checked the website and it said, that shipping is free in the UK. I don't live in the UK, so can I buy arcade machines from your website since im in the US and just have to pay for shipping to my address?
+Kuriji Jikan I'm guessing yes since they never said "buying limited to UK"
Hello, wondering what is the cheapest arcade machine that plays old game/s (the pacman, 60 games in one, etc.)
And how much is it?
The ArcadePro Invader 60 is our entry level machine, and can be bought in the cocktail configuration in white for £949.

Slick Wally I'm good , I'm not fancy like you ...
What’s your company?
None of them utilize proper CRT emulation. The games don't look right without it.
Agreed I have a company that does mine switched to led for my pinball machines and I just got new TV's for a deal got 7 for under 400
If they had lcd screens back then, trust they would have used them.

Do you accept Visa Gift cards with USD on them?
Your money are "washed"
How will I get in contact with you when I'm ready to order
Do you know where I could purchase one in the U.S? I've been looking for a Mortal kombat or Tekken machine but they are basically extinct and I'd love the 18 wheeler trucker game but I could never find one, I had to go to Las Vegas to just look at one but unfortunately was not for sale, do you know where I could buy a fighting cabinet or racing? In the U.S southern states?
ignacio barajas If you are not looking for an original for collectors value, you would be better off building or buying a custom mame cabinet. You could play all of those games on one machine and still get the feel of an arcade.

Can you order this I'm in the U.S.
Hi Mike. Normally, it is possible for us to ship to any international port of your choice, but you would then be responsible for shipping from there. However in this case, all of the machines we sell are sold with UK power supplies and designed to run on UK voltage and current. Drop us an Email if you'd like to ask us anything else. :)
do you guys sell these, I want a game fully standing machine, can it come with hyper spin, wats the cost and can it be delivered to ireland
Hey Slim, we do indeed! Many of our higher end systems come with Hyperspin, and it can come in many different formats (our ArcadePro range may be just what you're looking for). I've asked the team regarding shipping one to Ireland, and they say it's something we can definitely cater for! Best advice is to give the team a call and they can talk you through it. Drop a line on 0800 622 6464 or 01454 413636
I still like the bgm on this vide, perhaps I can learn the name of it? I've come to this video many times to get ideas on an arcade machine I want to eventually buy
The name of the track is Horizons. Glad you like the video and are enjoying doing your research!
Thank you, by any chance you know the artist? having trouble finding it :)
I knew you were going to ask that! It's from a royalty free compilation we bought a few years ago. I'm afraid I don't know where you could find this now. May be try running it through Shazam? Sorry I can't be more help.
Hey how much are you selling them for
Hey Joe. It depends very much on each machine (what spec it is, if it's a rare classic etc), but there is usually an arcade machine to suit every budget. You can see the complete range on our website :)
Which one is cheapest?
Our cheapest machine has £50 off in the Sale until the end of Jan, it's £949 and can be found here: www.homeleisuredirect.com/arcade_machines/multiplay-arcade-machines/arcadepro-invader-60-cocktail-arcade-machine-black.html Many thanks.

mate can u use these in a commercial setting like a shop??? is it legal ?
It does depend on the machine. If an arcade machine is using the original hardware (like using the original arcade boards) then it's fine for use. The multi-game cabinets are intended for home use only.
@@HomeLeisureDirect thanks mate

Hi Papyrus, I'm sorry but I can't help you with that. We don't sell any Japanese arcade machines, so we don't have any info we could share with you. I'm sure with a bit of searching you can find something to help you. Good luck with your research.

@@caifelicity3524 Hello! i know this is an old comment but I'm looking for the 1987 very first Street Fighter arcade game!
Why do you keep saying you can only play one game? You can switch the PCBs!
*****
I was saying that if a Space Invaders board stopped working, you could put a working Space Invaders board in.
No you werent dumbass .
Switchin a broken board with a working one of the same game means your playing the one game . The same game
I just want one to play marvel vs street fighter
i have a arcade machine it has so much games you do not have money you don't need money because of black button you give you coins doesn't know what is nice what are energisedand it's two players and you want to eat your yoghurt
Being able to eat your yoghurt whilst playing arcade games is always important.
Let's say someone from French orders a cabinet, how does he play the game, because one game costs 25 quarters and the machines only accept American 25 quarters?
Good question! These multigame cabs are designed for home players, so they are all set to freeplay. If someone in France wants to order a coin operated machine we can have it set to take Euros. Hope this helps.
My Favourite Arcade Games:
1. Pacman
2. Space Invaders
3. Centipede
4. Qbert
5. Asteroids
6. Frogger
7. Breakout
8. Joust
9. Defender
10. Galaga
11. Ms. Pacman
12. Tetris
He really rock lol
Well they are changeable just get a new jamma board
Midway made Pac man?
Midway owned the USA license until they kept making sequels of PAC-MAN that were not endorsed by Namco

MULTI-EMULATOR MACHINE HAS NO CONS
LizardFungus1 false, they are illegal, specifically the roms, which are illegally obtained.
Jim Chance who are you? the fbi? nobody is going to notice it is offline mate
No, seriously. They cannot include roms on something being sold as a legal product. Companies like this get shut down all the time, especially if they get too loud about including Nintendo games. Does anyone care? Maybe not... is it legal? no, and this comes with some implications when buying a multi-thousand dollar arcade unit that you have expectations of.
Not if you sell it. It is illegal in most cases even if you make it yourself, but it's "legally actionable" if you are selling it. I think a lot of companies both in and outside of the USA just dont get caught because they are small enough and the law has yet to caught up.
There is a large grey market area for depreciated ROMs that most of the world has just looked the other way on. Sometimes it's for videogame preservation. Sometimes it's because many of us are too cheap to use proper channels. No one is going to kick in your door, smash your self-made machine, and haul you off to jail. No worries.
I have a mini arcade machine and it has 200 games
Cool
At my house
Punch out?
Yeap Canadians customers .
😞
☺
you you
There's no corner of a choosing , there's no grouped unity , there's no me and you in a fund raising community
Space Invaders cant be that hard to find. Because I own one. So it cant be rare.
***** Ya I bought it last year non working. 250 canadian dollars. Poped some new fuses in it and adjusted the voltages and it fired up. Some of the sounds are not working tho. But just need to order the lm 3900 chips to replace the bad ones. Its kinda funny the machine in this video is missing the coin compartment door. Mine is missing the same part.
My........car!
I want to sell my to games if same one are interested
The new ms Pacman is slower than the original I Like the original cuz it was way faster
And newer arcade machines joy stick doesn't move smoothly and feels cheap
I have an original ms pacman and there are two speeds you can get with changing a chip there is fast and slow. the original ms pacman shipped with the slow chip and you could update it with the fast chip.
The wico joysticks is what you are fond of
I like fruit machines
Outrun, Afterburner and Galaxy Force, niggahs!!!!!!
the afterburner big machine that moved was my joint!! I'm Maverick you can be Goose, lol!
+Dominic Salazar Hell yes and hell no!!!
a mame machine with 850 games is no worth having, my mame machine has 6500 arcade games on it not including the other 20 systems it also runs,total 80 thousand games.
***** yea i suppose you are limited by copyright as to what you can put on your machines if your selling them,alot of the roms on my machine i put on my myself.
yea and how many games actually work like 1000
I gave to viwdo the 400 like
+Michael O'Sullivan wtf

hummm u sounds like britis.
+Golam Kibria He sounds English. "British" is a nationality, not a language.
ha ha... i know. but u didn't get wat i mean by "u sounds like britis".
I understood perfectly but you need to understand that "British" isn't a language.
Britian has 3 countries with many accents and dialects per country, the "British" accent wouldn't sound English, it'd sound un-natural.
oh man i give up and you are ryt from ur point.
if i disclose wat i ment, then it would be racism. so i should not.
i just want to say how a king became a king... and how we becan human.. and how brits became what they are now. this video recommended brits ver of arcade machin so i just want to asking myself how they became brits became brits.
