    Nice job on the video man! I agree they need to get their crap together with unified releases and pricing. That’s quite the turn off for consumers... now that Neo Geo is coming out with that $500 cab- it’s gonna give 1up a run for their money

    I dunno if I'm going to get any more of these. I bought the Asteroids and Centipede cabinets on the first release. And I got a Dig Dug countercade. Each one takes up a chunk of space. I'm considering getting one full size cab that I can tie into a PC or Switch as I have most of these games a few times over in various forms. The other thing I've come to realize is that my time with these games comes in waves. It's probably been a year since I've fired up Asteroids. It's fun, but I'm really starting to consider the space it takes for the utility I get out of it. If it was something where they sold upgrades or additional games / swapable control panels I think it would be more appealing. I think it's great that you have a home arcade set up. I've considered it a couple times and I could dedicate a room to it, but I have a feeling that I wouldn't get much use out of the games once the novelty wore off and then would have to deal with selling a home arcade lol

    • @Emceemur
      @Emceemur  4 роки тому

      You’re exactly right!! On so many things. Im honestly half crazy doing the home arcade thing. But its a lifelong dream of mine. I’m hopelessly stuck in the past. Nothing cost effective about any of this. Even retro collecting at this point is crazy. Its worth too much to sit on it all. And a retropie costs about $150 fully built and takes up about as much room as a deck of cards.

    Nice rant! The Brick is a furniture store chain up here in Canada so it really doesn't made sense to have those sold exclusively there!

      @@derrikadams3375 I don't think so it's still an ArcadeFup 👎. There are still many problems.

      I've got 10 of these and yes the quality has stepped up. I've only had a couple of problems and had them resolved from the company in under a week. I'm very satisfied with arcade1up and tastemakers.

    The only one I was ever interested in was the FINAL FIGHT one. I still am. I had it in my hands once and ddnt even get it. Well... if I see it again at a lower price then maybe I'll get it, but I really dont much care for these things at all.

      The Final Fight unit was a nice one. 4 solid games on it. It’s the only one I had zero problems with quality wise. But I did have to jump through hoops to get it.
