    I can still remember one 80's Saturday night putting on ice skates and never getting on the darn ice rink the whole night because I was too busy emptying all my cash into Tempest, Space Wars and Donkey-Kong machines (thanks mom and dad). Ahh the good o'l days. Even a modern day casino couldn't emulate that excitement. You were king when hot chicks would stand behind you to watch (ok, all that did was mess up my game really). Still, soooo glad I was born when I was.

    Holy hell, this looks really good, especially for the price. Also kinda crazy that they went through the trouble of licensing games from the Disney catalog (and others, but Disney had to be the most expensive) and setting up a whole subscription service, yet also clearly know and encourage the fact that this was made to be modded and filled with whatever ROMs you can scrape from the internet. Kinda bizarre, but also really cool of them. Glad to see AtGames putting out a quality product for once.

      @RETRO PHIL Heck, anything more than just a few generations old MUST be played on a CRT, say nothing about this classic stuff. I keep an old CRT tv on hand specifically for me to play my old consoles like Genesis, Nintendo 64, NES, and such on. Really only modern consoles of the last few generations look good on a wide screen LED TV.

    I own one of these things. I was not disappointed. There's just so much you can do. Right now I run things from my PC with coinops. I completely replaced the joysticks. The ones it came with are fine but I wanted something better for fighting games. It was very easy to mod.

    They are releasing a LED marquee. Current owners will be able to buy one for 1/2 retail price. They are saying 100.00. It's a full color led marquee that will load the marquee of the game you are playing. The second wave out now will have this already installed.

    • @ModernClassic
      @ModernClassic  4 роки тому

      Already have mine reserved. But I don't see any official source saying this will be included in new ALU units. The page on AtGames' web site for the Bitpixel LED marquee says it's compatible with "all Legends Ultimate and Legends Gamer units", which implies that *no* version comes with it.

      @BillLoguidiceAuthor 4 роки тому +2

      Modern Classic No. Local streaming with your own PC on your own network is free. It's separate from the AtGames service that uses the cloud gaming service and a virtual PC. That has a cost because you're using external server and network time. There are only two instances where you're charged, that and ArcadeNet gaming. However, ArcadeNet is free while in beta so there's only the one charge. Everything else you can do on there, and there's a lot, is completely free.

It won't be on par with the quality from that machine. Free upgrades once you've bought it as well if i'm correct. Customer service sounds spot on as well.

    12:03 Neither one of those are 4 way plates. At least not in that configuration. The way those are set up they are both 8 way, with the octagonal restrictor plate giving better feel on 4 way games. The square one is a 4/8 way restrictor, meaning it can be used as either. The inside square restrictor need to be turned 45 degrees.

    Congratulations on the Legends Ultimate grab! I've been torn between getting one of these, and continuing on with a full sized Mame cab I've been building. My main problem with the LU is, the UI text is way too small for my low vision, at the moment. Also, vertical aspect games are very small on the 24" monitor, compared with the monitor in my Mame machine. Mind you, I do have the A1UP collection, with some of their included games, you run into the same problem. Bigger is always better for my vision. LOL Thank you very much for the detailed review of this amazing machine. By the way, you might want to consider not more than a six inch riser for your situation.

    • @ThomasGrillo
      @ThomasGrillo 4 роки тому

      @Spawndude Spawndude If you intend to have physical bezel, with some sort of design, or vinyl graphic, you may be limited to the 27, at most, for a decent sized monitor. However, Given your visual situation, I'd go with the 32" monitor, in which you would not be able to use a bezel, but would enjoy a monitor that's easier for you to see, and actually be comparable to commercial arcade monitors.

    500 bucks is a great price for something like this! fwiw in my own experience, the emalator software can become - happily - a rabbit warren designing own front-ends, setting up Game Lists (Sega, Taito, Atari, whatever). For me most fun has been setting the correct screen ratios + visual FX (this is within MAMEUIFX32 btw) for each title to emulate old CRT phosphor fx, etc.. - really takes me back in time when they feel as I remember seeing them! MC I would definitely consider how you could play games through an old CRT displays such as the oft-mentioned Sony PVM series. I had one of those and LOVED it - scanlines were built in! Ran from an S-Video out on an older laptop and looked far more accurate than a flat LCD screen could ever achieve! Enjoy, I'm jealous!

So for just $400 more I get an entire full sized arcade cabinet btw, because arcade1up is 3/4 sized and I can play anything I want on it just with a quick download. Sounds good to me. The point is you have companies selling arcades half sized and with 3 games in it. I can buy this Atgames and play over 1,000 games without any MODS!! So whats really worth what here...... Do you see what I'm saying? Did I mention its also the only arcade cab that's fully connected. Meaning wifi internet for updates, adding games and most importantly in which Modern Classic did not mention is that this hooks directly up to your Steam account and you can play some current high graphic fighting games like the new mortal kombat for example... so yes I believe its well worth a 600 tag

      There is actually a dedicated Tron joystick that you can buy and install in this machine, though I don't personally have one. Without that, I find Tron really difficult to play. I may get one eventually but it's a little expensive for an attachment for a single game. But people who have it say it makes a huge difference. Frontline and Ikari Warriors I don't know, I wasn't into those games at the time so haven't spent much (if any) time with them on this machine.

    • @ModernClassic
      @ModernClassic  4 роки тому +2

      I had written another reply but I'm replacing it with this one. You are right that I messed up that section a little bit, but not quite in the way I think you're thinking. There are square and diamond 4 way gates. Older games with 4 way movement had dedicated diamond gates; this machine comes with a square gate by default. Square gates don't do anything for anybody; I don't honestly know why they exist, since they only give you physical feedback in the corners.
      Like the Sanwa gates, it looks like you can rotate the inner ring on this plate 45 degrees to get a diamond shape out of it. That would be a lot better for 4 way games that only have up, down, left and right. I honestly didn't try that; I'd never done that before so I didn't even realize I could.
      Now, that said, for playing a ton of different kinds of games, an 8 way plate is still better, and it *might* still be better even for 4 way games than a 4/8 way gate is. That's because the 4 way gate even in diamond configuration is still really rounded off, so you're not getting quite as much positive "click" into position when pressing one direction or another. 8 way gates aren't rounded off.
      So yeah, I would have done that part a little differently if I'd just known to turn the inner ring 45 degrees. I'd have at least tried using it that way for a little while. But it wouldn't work too well with other games, I don't think, so I'd probably have still swapped the 4 and 8 way plates.

    Would you say this is a TN or IPS panel? I'm curious because I desire good viewing angles. Also I'm torn on if it's better having a horizontal or vertical mounted monitor.

    • @ModernClassic
      @ModernClassic  4 роки тому

      I'm really just making an educated guess but it looks more like IPS than TN to me. I don't have a problem with the viewing angles. And there is some "glow" like IPS panels have. I know what you mean on horizontal vs. vertical. I feel like a 16:9 panel, though, is a little bit too extreme for vertical mounting. So I understand why they went horizontal. That also allows you to use bezel artwork that already exists for MAME on PC's for your BYOG games.

    • @ModernClassic
      @ModernClassic  4 роки тому

      That's never been a reliable way of telling screen tech - I personally have sold matte and glossy screens of various technologies. It just depends on what the manufacturer decides to put on them, and it's mostly just down to what they think consumer preference is. As for this screen, the entire screen area (from side to side, well beyond the actual screen itself) is covered in glass. So there's no way to see the screen itself without disassembling the unit - something I haven't seen any UA-camr do, because it's not something you'd really want to do unless you had to.

    Mmm....okay, my opinion for what its worth. I _really_ like the control panel. Yep, that's it. If they sold something like that as a USB controller, I'd be all in. The issues I have with these type of products are:
    They have fairly crappy SBC hardware _and_ run older versions of Mame (both of which lead to glitches and poor performance). To emulate well you REALLY need half-decent hardware and a *freesync monitor* (and GPU). Most old arcade games had MANY different refresh rates and without a freesync display, you'll either get screen tearing or, if Vsync is enabled to smooth that out, input lag and sound glitches. It would also be nice if it supported HLSL to simulate CRT screens (phosphor glow, screen curvature etc.).
    But I DO like that control panel. I like it a lot.

    My main issue with this thing is the position of the joystick. I never really played the arcade machines, just the atari 2600. Is it just me, or would right handed people would want the joystick on the right? I can't imagine playing space invaders with my left hand. A wired controller option would work, too, especially for standing/sitting.

    • @ModernClassic
      @ModernClassic  4 роки тому

      You can actually remap the controls however you want. You can use the P2 controls for P1, you can use the P2 joystick and P1 buttons, etc.
      I will say that this layout is pretty standard for how 2 player arcade games use to be laid out. But some may have been different; I didn't play everything back in the day.

      A lot of arcade controllers look similar from afar.. that's why I opened it up to see what was in there. I don't know much about those Pandora's box things other than that with 3,188 games for $180, there's no way those games are all licensed. But who knows what kind of parts are even in there. Could be good, or maybe not. Maybe sometime I'll try one out, but I'm not going to pay even that much for one.

      I paid about £120 for mine which I think was worth it for a very nice duel joystick panel that can easily be upgraded with a more powerful single board computer and better parts. It's great as a USB duel fighting stick for PC as well.

      There's another guy on UA-cam who did a video on using a MiSTer with this cabinet, but I don't know if he fit it inside. (I think he still wanted to use it with other devices.) The inside of the cabinet is literally just air, though, so there are tons of places you could mount one if you wanted to dedicate it to the Legends Ultimate. Then you would just need to split a cable or two going between the controller and monitor. The cabinet itself is basically just a stand for the controller and LCD screen, so you can do basically anything you want inside it. You could put a desktop PC running MAME in there if you wanted.
