Hello Command HQ Arcade, 👋 Thank you so much for your video about our device! 🎮 We really appreciate the time and effort you put into it. Your insights are valuable to us. If you have any further questions, remarks, or feedback, feel free to reach out to us anytime. 💬 We’d love to hear from you! Thanks again for the video, and keep up the great work! 🙏 Best regards, Your Iconic Arcade Team 😊
It's GameStop Canada that is promoting it. It's exclusive to them in Canada for a year (which is actually up I believe before the end of 2024) GameStop USA doesn't sell it.
@@CHQArcade I also have one machine. Its definetly not perfect on every regard. But it is a very good and cheap multicade solution. If you dont want to build your own, and invest a lot of time in, it is really better to buy one Iconic Arcade Device. There is also a Smyth Toys offer of 399$. So its a really good deal.
In all honesty right now there is a good deal out there on Smyth Toys for 399$. I think its a very good offer and adding your own games + and playing them with a Keyboard mouse, controller or with the Iconic Arcade Joysticks is very easy. Plus you can add nearly all the games you want with WinSCP (Wifi) There is also a Tutorial on that on the Iconic Arcade UA-cam Page.
No not yet, Smyths should be getting them in later this month. Hopefully one of the local stores will put one up in store for display as I’m sure there will be a few questions around it
I disagree. I have one at home and it is great. Of course it is not perfect, but it is a Multicade. Plus i really dont have the time, nor the patience to build one myself. Therefore buying one for 399 is actually a good deal.
@@JohnBoyle-y9t Well im just telling you how it is. The machine is good especially for 399$ But if you want to build your own one, invest probably more money and time, you can create your own machine. For me, i dont have the time, so i bought the machine, and i am satisfied with it.
I want to like the Iconic Arcade more than I do, there just doesn't seem to be an awful lot of information about it and ones who have put videos up say you are very much left to your own devices for the most part. What do you guys think of this new(ish) entry into the Home Arcade space?
Really? have you seen the Iconic Arcade YT Channel? There have a few tutorials regarding adding games, Batocera, how to build up the Machine, Wifi configs etc.

Wow, thanks very much for reaching out guys, appreciate it
I love this machine. Cant figure out where to get spare parts though
How do you find the quality of the buttons and sticks?
@@CHQArcade everything is top notch and very responsive so far
@@Bleepoh Ahh love to hear that
Built this yesterday. Added 10,000 roms. Absolutely brilliant.
It's on offer for £350 delivered
Nice one. How’s it holding up? Any issues?
None , really impressed 💯, it's built really well, the wood is a lot stronger than I expected, the speakers are way better too,
How straightforward is it for a novice to do this (I already have the roms)?
@@BenIsaacs-p4v it's easy
Built within an hour, roms work flawlessly
It's on sale in Canada now for $399 Canadian $221 pounds maybe a trip to Canada pay for the ticket almost.
Thats right, its also the newer version too. It costs 399$ on the Smyth Toys Page.
Bought and put one together today . Complete beginner . Very easy to use and put games on using the shared files on laptop
How was the build process? Heard the included instructions aren't great
It's GameStop Canada that is promoting it. It's exclusive to them in Canada for a year (which is actually up I believe before the end of 2024) GameStop USA doesn't sell it.
So, it's worth holding off buying this until it has improved.
Honestly it’s hard to know. I’d need to pick one up and play with it to see what it’s like and if it’s any better than just building your own

Have you had the chance to see one of these yet?

It's truly awful even if you're a starter. Take the 400 and build a far superior one
I disagree. I have one at home and it is great. Of course it is not perfect, but it is a Multicade.
