3RD FLOOR ARCADE’S TOP 3 ARCADE1UP HOME ARCADE MACHINES

[@3rdFloorArcade]

What are your 3 favorite home arcade machines from Arcade1up?

[@octoman_games]

Shinku/Yoga are the BEST cabs ever made by A1up!

[@3rdFloorArcade]

@@octoman_games my favorite also! I’d love to see a Street Fighter Alpha cabinet in the same style/features as the Yoga/Shinku. Thanks for checking out the video OctoMan PC’s!

[@octoman_games]

@@3rdFloorArcade ur 1 of my A1up goto content creators! dont stop!

[@3rdFloorArcade]

@@octoman_games thanks so much I really appreciate that!

[@AluccardX]

I love my Shinku. I think it's one of the best. I'd place it with Star Wars and Golden Axe as my top three.

[@octoman_games]

My Shinku Hadouken Cab is by FAR y favorite cab ever! It looks good, It's built good and has great games on it!

[@3rdFloorArcade]

100% agree, that Shinku Hadoken is amazing. A definite must-buy for any Street Fighter fan. 👍

[@octoman_games]

@@3rdFloorArcade I STILL want that NEO GEO tho! lol NO arcade is complete without it!

[@3rdFloorArcade]

@@octoman_games the Neo Geo MVSX is one of my favorites. Always been a big Neo Geo fan from their start especially with the fighting games like King of Fighters and Fatal Fury.

[@jayrod377]

@@3rdFloorArcade I’d like that too, especially for the side-loading!

[@antwilliams12]

I want to sell my street fighter legacy cab for the shin version

[@magicshow32]

MKII Legacy Cab, Star Wars & Cocktail Ms. Pac Man are the favorites in my collection.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Great choices there! MKll Legacy has such a great mix of Midway games. I think I’m going to pick up that MKll Deluxe machine once it goes on sale. I’m glad they used the nice monitor on that one 👍

[@SuperJustinChannel]

I'm impressed at how you built an entire arcade out of these modern home arcade cabinets.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Thanks SuperJustinChannel I really appreciate that. I started it about 3.5 years ago with the plan of just getting a few and turned into a whole bunch.

[@Hicks-g1m]

I love that Yoga flame street fighter 2 Cab and the MVC2 cab very nice I used to remember back in the day when I used to go to the arcades and there would be a group of people watching other play street fighter and other fighting games and even 7-11 had arcade games back in the day as well it was a golden age of arcades back in the 80's and early 90's🆒🆒👍👍🎮🎮🕹🕹

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Those were some great times playing Street Fighter with a big group of people all around the machine. My go-to arcade was at the nearby mall and remember having some great battles on MVC2 and all Street Fighter games there. Some awesome times back then!

[@iamledd]

I only have 2 cabs so far but to see the Yoga Flame on the list made me happy! I have that and a Atgames Ultimate Legends full size

[@3rdFloorArcade]

That’s a really good combo of machines you got there 👍

[@iamledd]

@@3rdFloorArcade thank you bro, I plan to get the Star Wars, possibly Tron, maybe the new Fast & Furious, possibly T2 to mod it for other games or I’ll just get the gun set up on the Ultimate Legends. Oh and can’t forget I want to get the Neo Geo MVSX 🙏

[@daviddeming1916]

Awesome video bro....I knew what your #1 was before even clicking on video 😂😂

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Haha thanks brother!! I really appreciate that 👍

[@TheRetroManRandySavage]

The star wars cab looks great. Next to the tron cab it's my favourite.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Tron really looks great. That’s one of the cabs I haven’t seen yet in person. If I ever find that one on sale I might need to pick it up. Thanks for checking the video out Retro man Randy Savage, great to hear from you!

[@musicmike2840]

Great video! My 3 favorites in my room are: Star Wars, Tempest and Class of '81

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Thanks MusicMike! That Tempest machine is a great one. I used to have that and sold it to a friend. If they come out with a Missile Command Atari Legacy with those same games, I’d definitely pick it up. Hopefully that’s coming in 2023.

[@EmeryArcade]

YO Yo what's up Jason!!! It's been awhile my friend!! Sorry we've been moving from NC to ME the past 5 months so I've been here and there on watching videos. I'm no longer a 3rd floor arcade guy like yourself. The new house has the arcade above the garage!! Bigger space so I've been very happy with how it came out. Really loving you expanded to the basement....looks awesome my dude!!! I would love to play some online...we should pick a time. Talk soon my friend!!!

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Thanks EmeryArcade I really appreciate that my friend! Good luck with your move, the new game room above the garage sounds pretty awesome. That’s great you got some more space up there! Let’s definitely get some online games in soon, I’ve been on Super SF2 Turbo and SF 2 Hyper Fighting a lot lately. Talk to you soon brother!

[@fireblast7823]

got some really cool top cabinets in that room Jason i hope u keep up with the more amazing ones this year always look forward to seeing more the star wars one is a sweet addition

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Thanks Fire Blast I really appreciate that my friend 👍

[@castleranch738]

Another excellent video!!! Where does the MVSX rank in your list of favs?

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Thanks Castle Ranch! MVSX ranks third if I’m including all the other companies in the ranking. MVSX is an awesome machine. Followed by Atari Star Wars.

[@Madlou]

Nice video as always. Do you have any 1up pinball cabs? I have a bunch of cabs (not quite as many as you) but my favorites are the three 1up pinballs. My first favorite otherwise would have to be NFL Blitz. That's the only one my wife will play on a regular basis. She is a huge football fan. My second would be T2 and my third would be NBA Jam.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Hey Louis, thanks so much! That Blitz cabinet is awesome, that’s probably my 4th favorite. I play that one a lot also. The A1UP Pinball is great too. I have the Star Wars Pinball down in the basement and love it. And it gets a lot of play when I have company over. It would be great if A1UP did some new pinball machines in the future.

[@dtgfunk]

Nice Jason! Almost giving me buyers remorse with my big blue vs those legacy cabs. My top 3 are nba jam, golden axe, and outrun. Class of 81, big blue, and ridge racer are my other top 3 lol

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Thanks my friend! I like that Big Blue a lot also. Knights of the Round on there is a classic. And that giant marquee is awesome too. Golden Axe definitely in my top 5. Love that cab!

[@jayrod377]

I want that class of ‘81 deluxe cab.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

@@jayrod377 that one looks great.

[@jayrod377]

I saw that deal! Thanks for the heads up! It just needs to be like…$200 off, lol. That’s wishful thinking. Maybe $100 off more reasonable?

[@dtgfunk]

@@jayrod377 I wish they made a 50% off a deluxe cab voucher for those who bought the first one

[@jeffm5056]

I used to have a second floor apartment. I know how hard it is to move an arcade machine up a flight of stairs into your apartme...oh, these are Arcade1Up machines. Nevermind.

[@TboneTenEighties]

Even though I personally am pretty much done purchasing these A1up cabs, (but never say never at a steal price) I do love all 4 that I own especially my MKII Legacy after the tweeks I made to it. Looking good! J

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Thanks Tbone! I’ve definitely slowed down my purchases of these also especially at full price. I’d love to add the NBA Jam Shaq Edition but only if I can score a great deal.

[@bonesjackson81]

By most played it'd be Blitz, Jam and Big Buck. Best cab by looks and content, SF Shinku, Golden Axe, Big Buck (Retro530 marquee makes it shine)

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Hey Bones Jackson thanks for checking the video out! Blitz, Jam and Big Buck definitely some heavily played machines with great replay value. That Golden Axe is awesome, another one of my favorites as well 👍

[@WWRNC]

Agree on the SF cab. You have any interest in the new deluxe cabs? I’m thinking that may be the way to go.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

I like the new MKll Deluxe and also the blue Ms Pac-Man Deluxe (which isn’t out yet). I think I’m going to pick up MKll Deluxe as soon as I see a good sale on it. You getting of those new ones?

[@WWRNC]

@@3rdFloorArcade I like them all to be honest, even the Fast and the Furious one. I may sell the ones I have and try to upgrade. Hopefully they do a Street Fighter deluxe version soon.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

@@WWRNC I think a street fighter Capcom deluxe would be great, I bet that’s coming soon.. I’m also hoping for a Missile Command Atari Deluxe.

[@SteveVsManCaveArcade]

My 3 favorite are 1. Class Of 81 2. Big Buck Hunter 3. Golden Tee

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Hey Steve! That’s a great group you mentioned there. All 3 of those have great replay value also. Thanks for checking out the video brother!

[@ThorKCade]

My top 3: Star Wars, Tron, and Big Blue

[@3rdFloorArcade]

That’s a great top 3! I’d love to pick up Tron at some point.

[@ThorKCade]

@@3rdFloorArcade Tron was my very first and got most of the rest waiting for Star Wars to re-release. Big Blue joins them just for being so fully featured and iconic. Tron is a really great cab-I did have a few issues with it and had to get the PCB replaced, but totally worthwhile!

[@3rdFloorArcade]

@@ThorKCade that’s awesome, thanks Thor KC. I’m always looking for deals on some of the cabs I never picked up. It seems like Tron is one of those that never really goes on sale. I remember being hooked on Tron Deadly Discs for the Intellivision back in the mid 1980’s. That was a great game back then.

[@ThorKCade]

@@3rdFloorArcade I got mine from Best Buy, and as it turned out the day that I was ready to order it went on sale for $499-Not the earth shattering deals I got in some others, but if you keep an eye out you probably can save a little $$ Until I ordered Blue for $399, the $599 for Star Wars and $499 for Tron was more than I’d spent for the other 5 machines combined! 😂

[@3rdFloorArcade]

@@ThorKCade $499 isn’t too bad for Tron! I feel like anything over $550 is kind of pushing it for these cabinets.

[@vader86davedestephanis]

Great vid as always, i only have 4 so far so Ms pac pac plus and RR my fav, dieing to get SW if you know anyone in our area selling I just can't see 599 for it but 499 i will pull trigger Go Sixers!!

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Thanks Dave! I’m so pumped for the game tonight! I would keep checking the Walmart site for a sale on Star Wars. $599 is definitely steep but I bet it goes on sale at some point. That new release with the light up coin door and new art looks really good. Go Sixers!

[@Joe-eg7ml]

Can you buy and review prime arcade 135 racing games. There is no review for this.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

I’ll have to look into that and check that out. I haven’t heard of that. Thanks for the heads up on it 👍

[@Joe-eg7ml]

@@3rdFloorArcade It's like sleeper. It's well built but it's costly. However has al the greatest racing games from the 80s to early 2000s. And u don't have to put too much together...just 2 pieces.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

@@Joe-eg7ml it sounds pretty awesome. Gonna check it out. What does it cost?

[@Joe-eg7ml]

I would buy but would like more input from a reviewer and enthusiast like urself.

[@Joe-eg7ml]

@@3rdFloorArcade about 3k but maybe u can work a deal since ur a youtuber.

[@FootieLaughs]

👍🏿

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Thanks Footie Laughs!

[@stepsgaming]

Yoga Flame/Shinko is 1 and it’s not even close. KI would be next for me as far as fighters. MVC2 is a mess if you play online.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

KI is one I never picked up, I almost got it when it was on sale back around the holidays. It’s a shame MVC2 is so sloppy online, I always get destroyed playing that online so I tend to stick to X-men vs SF and MSH vs SF online on that cabinet. Thanks for checking out the video StepsGaming, great to hear from you 👍

[@rayplaysgames_RPG]

I only have the shinku hadoken and mvc2. Shinku they knocked it out of the park. Mvc2 online is wonky and needs work, very disappointing

[@3rdFloorArcade]

That Shinku Hadoken is so awesome. Hoping for a Street Fighter Alpha machine in 2023 on par with this cabinet. And let’s hope they make the adjustments they need for the MVC2 online play.
