Seems like a good cabinet. My only issue would be the height of it. I get that you are using it as a sit down I just wish they offered you an option for the riser. I really liked this video format and your game room set up is pretty dam epic my man
erbwars, Thanks for stopping by! I agree about the riser. As I spoke about in the Customer Support and Other Annoyances sections, I think a riser would've gotten more people into the Alpha-Cade. I'm hoping if Rec Room Masters ever decides to re-release the Alpha-Cade, they make a riser option. In my case, I've always wanted at least one sitdown cabinet in my Home Arcade. All my other machines are stand up, though I do use stools to play them sitting down when I get tired of standing :) I'm also glad you like the format, its something I concept-ed from my very first review. I wanted to do something different than the other reviews I saw. I wanted to weave in a narrative or story to make things more personal, connect with people on a bigger level than just a mere recommendation. But for those who might just want the review parts, I also placed in chapters, so they could get what they wanted as well. It's kind of like the riser concept. Give people options. Thanks again for checking out another one of my videos! Have a great one! vgv
I was playing Berzek just outside our Big Wheel store. I was playing just find until one of the robots killed me. I said you bastard then all of sudden I was pulled away from the machine by my dad. I said hey I still have one more life left. He said you should of thought about that before you swear....lol
ArcadeTalk, I can relate for sure. My Atari 2600 got taken away a couple of times when I was a kid when I let one slip :) And when a quarter's on the line, because as a kid I didn't always have one, fowl language was sometimes involved :) vgv
Rexer, Thanks for stopping by! No, Rec Room Masters never made a riser for the Alpha-Cade. I touched upon this in a couple of places in the video, but here's my suggestion to Rec Room Masters if they ever offer this cabinet again. Here's a link to that specific part: ua-cam.com/video/DIBBSn-NccM/v-deo.html I think a riser option would make this machine desirable to more people. I actually like having one sitdown cabinet in my Home Arcade. I also like cocktail cabinets as well, but don't have the room for any more machines. Variety was a huge goal of mine when building my Home Arcade. Oh, and I provided a link to that ETA Prime video you're referencing in my video description. Thanks again for checking out the review! vgv
@@EarbudUser I had no idea! I might have to look into that for mine. However, I also may just keep it a sitdown cabinet. I actually like having one in my home arcade :) Thanks for the info and stopping by! vgv

Do they offer a riser ? I remember ETA prime did a review on this.
