    Any way you can reach out to John D and Arcade 1up to get a patch on Ridge Racer to make it easier? It is so difficult to even finish a race before the time expires…

      I have the real ridge racer cab sit-down, I don't know much about the 1up version but in the original there is a service menu which you can set the difficulty all it does is add more time when on the easier modes the other cars A.I doesn't change just the time.

    I doubt you'll see Crusin' USA as Nintendo own the name. Hence why the recent Crusin' Blast was exclusive to the Switch. More likely to get it's sister franchise: San Francisco Rush, as Warner Bros owns that.

    I saw someone mod the pedals with car pedal covers from Amazon , would you consider doing that to beef up the pedal ? Or do you think the original form factor is good enough

    • @3rdFloorArcade
      @3rdFloorArcade  2 роки тому +5

      If the covers fit the pedals properly I think that would be a pretty good mod. I’m hoping a third party comes out with a higher quality set of pedals altogether. It would be a massive upgrade to this great cab.

    Awesome review Jason! I also had this on PS1 as one of my launch titles. I never had it at any of my arcades so all my memories were from the PS1. It almost makes me wish it had the third person mode because that's how I played it.(I understand why it doesn't though) I do hope they continue to improve the pedals. Longevity is a concern on those but the cab itself looks great. Nice job as always

    Another great review my friend! On the one hand, it's awesome to have the better, reactive, steering wheel on this cab. Very cool that it has wifi (although to be honest, every game needs this going forward). What's not cool is the speakers (which are actually quite good on the other A1up racing cab OUTRUN). Worse is the $700 MSRP - too much green for this cab IMO; $550 a lot closer to a fair price. Would loved to have seen at least 12 racing games on this cab - there are so many good games out there, so few options. Keep these awesome reviews coming Jason!

    Wow!!! I'm impressed with the Ridge Racer cabinet and the lineup of racing games that's included on there! For $599 on sale is definitely a good price point for anyone to have in their collection, including me, lol. I never heard of the F1 games though it reminds me of Pole Position only in 3D yet I'm still impressed with them nonetheless in how they both play.
    Definitely something to pick up on my radar to have in my collection of games. Thanks for sharing this wonderful gem to all of us Jason as it stands out well in owning this one!!!

    When will A1UP realize audio is a huge part of the arcade experience? Aside from that it looks like a step towards the Sega racing cab I want. Not stand up tho. I'll never understand a preference for stand-up racing. Their benches suck but great opportunity for improvising a nice seat.

    This cab looks great standing next to my T2. Games are questionable... a mixed bag of crazy fun and crazy frustration, 🤪. Really hard to stay off the walls in these NAMCO style racers, they are definitely their "own thang". I've always had fun playing the original in the arcade and it's still my favorite here on this cab, both for the nostalgic factor and it's the best handling of the 5 games. The others are faster games and the faster they are, the more the flaws show in the handling designs of these games. And man do the competitor cars get CHEAP as hell when you do well, running you right into walls and other cars. Despite the imperfections in handling and collision detection mechanics, the games are still crazy fun, mostly due to the amazing shifting game. A must have for racing enthusiasts, but I don't think it's as entertaining or enjoyable as the Outrun cab. My favorites on this are the original Ridge Racer, Ace Driver and Rave Racer. The other two are enjoyable as well, just have more issues with collision detection I think. Just made top 10 on Ridge Racer last night, can't wait to see where you place on this one brother!
