Hi Tommy, Thanks for watching man always great to hear from you! T2 mod is definitely the way to go, I hope T2 drops so others can pick it up and add these games all for less than 749. Have a great day Tommy 👊
Well going to spend some time finding out over the holiday. Bought myself a few Christmas gifts today. Time Crisis and T2 will deliver on December 27th. Adding these to my A1U collection - Tron, Golden Tee 3D, Tempest, Joust, Dragons Lair, Ridge Racer, and Star Wars. Pretty pumped to mod these cabinets.
Nice lineup Spike! You’ll love these 2, you might want the riser booster for TC after you play it’s just a little low but not bad just depends how tall you are.
Great video Phil! The price of Time Crisis is what surprises me. IMO, there are two ways of looking at it: 1. T2 retailed for $700 with one game. TC has four games for $50 more. The price of it is not bad when considering that. 2. All other cabinets this year have been more reasonably priced at launch, namely F&F. It retailed for $600 as opposed to $700 for Ridge Racer. Due to number 2, I personally thought that Time Crisis would be cheaper out of the gate despite it being a better value than T2.
Great points Zimm, I agree I just thought like you said it would come out cheaper and people would have jumped on it. It’s bad timing with iircade, AtGames and now Retro Shooters not to mention the additional shooting games on SW mod now. I hope most of us sit back and force a sale :)
T-2 was on sale for 299 a wile back hehe should have bought 2 and saved it oh well times pass bestbuy no longer has it online or in store but Kholes still got it but at full price $699 maby if kholes could have a sale maby even $399 for T-2 would be a sick deal buy it and buy the Retro Shooter Pandora Box kit you would get more games for the money
Exactly what I'm saying $749 is way over my budget they getting greedy I have a T2 in my house I going to wait for Buy Stuff arcades mod to be released thanks for sharing this video I really enjoyed watching
I’m loving Buystuffs mod Calvin Jr it’s a game changer and people will lead towards this over spending crazy money on TC. I really appreciate it man 👊 good to hear from you, how are you liking both F&F cabs?
All points I wanted to make Phil. Great job. If you guys stream tonight, if you would like, you can reach out to me. I should be available tonight. Have a great day today, buddy.
I got lucky and got my T2 at $270! I had no nostalgia for the cab but couldn’t pass at that price and now I can’t wait to mod it with buy stuff’s mod! It will make my initial investment in the cab so worth it! Good work Phil I enjoy your videos.
Thank you Harryx! 270, what a deal :) best investment man, this mod is a game changer and I’m just as excited about it as I was yesterday for TC! Thank you for watching man 👊
Great video! Thanks for checking on the T2. I still need to get one but am watching for a sale. The guns on Time Crisis look to be a major step up from the T2 guns. Im sure that factors in to the cost. I'll wait for a sale like many others. It does look beautiful and would look good in my arcade.
Thank you Quarter Deck Arcade, I love the way it looks too. I’m going to resist and wait the long run for a sale, there’s a few coming out that I want to buy too so this is just too expensive right now. I’m going to watch for T2 in store online and marketplace I’ll keep you posted 👊
Thanks so much for asking if the T2 is the price it says in the store man! Yeah I agree that $749 is quite steep for Time Crisis. I for one have never been that crazy or played many gun arcade games. But I still think they are cool and I will get probably Guns4ir for my Simpsons to TMNT custom 4 player PC modded cabinet to play gun games if I want to. I just JB-welded a spare fan clutch I have that is wore out and loose. Hopefully when it's dry tomorrow, I will have a solid stock fan on my Z. And it will help with the overheating problems while the car is sitting idling.
Hi Atran, this heat wave needs to chill out :) man it’s even working it’s way up here we’re not used to it! Your PC mod will be way better than a $800 4 game cab, I’ll watch for T2 it will come back 👊
@@PDX7 Yeah I mean I expect the heat here as I do live in the desert. lol But where you are at it shouldn't be as hot. And thanks man, appreciate you watching out for the T2 for me!
It is too much but I still might buy if it eventually is available for in-store-pickup at Best Buy. I do have the Retro Shooter kit and the iiRcade Mystery Encoder board (w/ a Sinden) so I have some light gun options to mess around with while we wait.
Watched your video this morning, good points, I'm still going to get Time Crisis over the T2 mod, but I'm more thinking maybe I should wait now and get a discount on it.
You and I absolutely want TC, it looks great and would be completely awesome to have. I will buy once it drops even if it’s 1 year from now, there are other cabs to jump on in the near future :)
I am waiting for buy stuff since I have T2 curious where they put the sensors I was thinking mounting under marque next to speaker, anyway TC is sweet looking if it were cheaper I would be all over it so just not sure yet which direction anyhow TY for surprise video very much enjoyed
Hi Dave, you were sold on this mod before we got the facts on TC yesterday. I’m in too! This will be a different build than other Buystuff mods because of those sensors. I’ll get TC in 6 months to a year when it drops :)
For me, Time Crisis is a hard pass. I've got a Sinden gun for my iiRcade and with all the mods coming out, there's bound to be plenty of light gun games that we can play on our iiRcades without spending anywhere near $749. Another great video, PD7!
The Retro Shooter seems like a great option! I am deciding between that or a Sinden Light-gun for my PC? Afterall, Time Crisis, House of the Dead and many others emulate perfectly as well as the fact that it can be used on the iiRcade with the TeamEcoder board. I'm really struggling to understand who the Time Crisis Arcade1up is for outside of die-hard collectors or 1up fans! That $749 price tag is way too high and frankly is lacking in value in my opinion. Great Walk & Talk as always Phil! 👊💥💥💥💥
Thank you Zod! Like what you told me a few weeks ago Multicades are the future and people aren’t going to drop $800 for a cab with 4 games it’s steep man. Looking forward to finding out more on Buystuff mod, have a great day 👊
@ZodWriter A Sinden with RetroLizards Batocera build on a cheap little pc connect to an ALU or your big screen tv is a much cheaper and better option imho, much bigger screen and WAY more games.
I think for $749, it should have had a 19" screen, esp with no bezel, and or Time Crisis 2 and 3. Why just have 1? I dnk if I should get T2 and BSA mod, or invest in GUN4IR tech? Retro Ralph has some recent good vids on those light guns. Of course I really like my RR BSA mod. Good video
We have a ton of options Eric, just take your time thinking about it and watch as much of these TC reviews as you can along with retro shooters. None of this stuff is going anywhere and T2 will drop before end of year. Thank you for watching :)
Sorry I'm late to the party haha. I agree 749 is too rich for my blood on time crisis. That buy stuff mod is where it's at I think. I got my T2 for 399 so I don't feel bad putting some money in it.
Building up the Batcave takes time I get it man :) how’s the heat by you? It’s hot up here, what do you think will you buy Retro shooters mod? I like TC but have no problem waiting a year if I have to.
@@PDX7 actually it's been low 80s here the last week or so. It's been really nice haha. Yeah I think I'm going to get that retro shooter mod. The game lineup will be the determining factor but I'm sure it will have everything we want on it.
True, but if you have T2 already it’s a win! Plus getting the added games on mod is big compared to 4 games. I’m bummed though ChosenOne I was going to jump in and preorder.
Hey Phil, hope Lucky is well. People need to be tight with their hard earned money these days. Time Crisis looks good but come on, 800 bucks for 4 games? People would be better to get T2 and do the hack for cheaper. Even better than that is just buy a cheap 50 buck used pc install Batocera shooter build with Sinden to any monitor. People don't preorder TC, show A1up they are not correctly pricing this stuff.
Hi Carl, Lucky says hi :) she also told me to save my money and wait as long as it takes for a sale 😺 T2 should be top choice for people right now and mod like you said any way they want. I’ll be on the lookout for sales on T2, we should all sit back and force a markdown, Buystuff for the win Carl! I love the way TC looks just going ti hold off, so much coming out I need as much money as I can. Have a great day Carl!
@PDX7 Just a recent as 2020/2021, I could buy an Arcade 1Up brand new and sell it used for 75% market value. Unfortunately those days are gone. Anyone spending $700 on an A1Up these days is not making a good investment because they don't sell high value anymore at all.
That’s a hard pass. I only have 3 Arcade1up and I want to get 3 more. Want to have 6 Arcade1up then I’m done…. Don’t care what they come out after I’m done 😊
After the the six I’ll get into another hobby. Don’t want to keep buying these Arcade1up just cause they have a new version… plus I only have so much room.
It’s a never ending hobby lol it’s definitely hard to keep up :) I have my eye on Super 7 figures I could see myself collecting down the road when I’m not spending so much on arcades :)
I guess 749 is not unprecedented, but with f&f and big buck at 599, it’s an overreach for sure. It’s a day 182 day purchase.. lol. Maybe in 6 months it will go on sale. 🤷♂️
Lol 😂 182! You’re absolutely right Skidz, I’m focusing on some other cabs instead and once TC is 599 or less I’ll pick it up. Thanks for stopping by AA last night 👊
So was I Benji, this is too much there’s a few other cabs I’m going to get and wait for a sale on this. In the meantime T2 will get a lot of play once mod is available. Thanks for watching, it’s good to hear from you 👊
Hi Petty, it is a one player game. Steel Gunner 1 & 2 are two player games which are really good games. I’m not sure if point blank is 1 or 2 players I’m leaning towards 2 player also. Thanks for watching 👊
@@PDX7 bummer I wish it had at least time crisis 2 price tag is pretty high don’t know if I wanna pull the trigger or be a impulse buyer appreciate the content
I agree Tim, Jesse asked me on AA last night how much 1 half of TC2 was I thought it was going to be the same price :) I’ll pass and wait until it’s closer to $599 or less no rush!
Great video Phil! Love watching your videos getting ready for work. I think I might pick that kit up for my T2 when it comes out.
Hi Tommy, Thanks for watching man always great to hear from you! T2 mod is definitely the way to go, I hope T2 drops so others can pick it up and add these games all for less than 749. Have a great day Tommy 👊

Great job on the update! I'm still getting over the 599 I paid for the 23' Star Wars cab!! 😌😌
Lol I hear you Neil, I’m not too eager dropping another $599 especially $749 if I really don’t have too :) Thank you for watching, have a great day 👊
That's actually worth 599
Any racer, Light gun or Flight yoke $599 should be set price nothing higher. Anything else $499 or less :)
It's like an addiction we love the build
It’s the truth:)

@@PDX7 Thanks! I agree with you 100%! The price is not a good look with the options that are out there.
I think I can hold off Zimm :)
@@PDX7 Yeah, I am too. Space is becoming so limited and there are a lot of hints of good things coming next year.
Let’s hold off on the fomo as long as we can :) pickup some more Classifieds to hold you over. Have a good day man 👊
Thank love your vids always❤ hope we get a special on t2 in Canada
Thank you for watching MD79, I really appreciate it 👊 T2 should be on clearance everywhere in just a matter of time.
T-2 was on sale for 299 a wile back hehe should have bought 2 and saved it oh well times pass bestbuy no longer has it online or in store but Kholes still got it but at full price $699
maby if kholes could have a sale maby even $399 for T-2
would be a sick deal buy it and buy the Retro Shooter Pandora Box kit you would get more games for the money
Hey Prince Vinny, I have a good feeling we will see another sale on T2. People will buy these out this time :)

I love that cab :) best racer yet!
We're you still going to preorder at 749? I can't imagine time crisis selling out for 749. Game worth 599 tops.
Hi Alex, not at 749. I’m waiting for 599 or less even if it takes a year, 699 maybe I would have but I’ve made up my mind now it’s gotta be less.
@@PDX7 yeh a little greedy aren’t they lol. 749 is a bit ridiculous.
Big time Alex, 599 would’ve been good and a lot of people would buy
All points I wanted to make Phil. Great job. If you guys stream tonight, if you would like, you can reach out to me. I should be available tonight. Have a great day today, buddy.
Thank you Jesse! Buystuff saves the day again 👊 see you tonight :)
The biggest problem for me is not the guns but the fact that they didn’t put a multiplayer time crisis game on it.
Especially for that price if TC2 was on with 5 games ok I can see starting off with 749, but this is too steep. Thanks for watching Comronfouladi 👊
