Arcade1Up Assembly Instructions

[@EdenEye6]

Wow! Best assembly instructions i have ever seen! Other companies should really watch and copy these guys. Excellent job!

[@thenum1379]

Man, I wish every company used videos like this. Very helpful!

[@vasili1207]

Seems 1up wants to build their cabs like ikeas furniture...

[@frostyhighway9011]

PS. you can buy the Back lit florescent lights and a glue gun to light up the marque on these 1 up cabs at IKEA I have done this before on my other arcade cabinets.

[@cameranmanner4701]

@@frostyhighway9011 i'm not sure what you mean. the marquee is opaque, so light will not be visible. unless you are saying there is a plexiglass panel available that has logos for this? I was thinking of using a sheet of plexiglass and printing a logo on some vinyl and place it on the plexiglass then shine a light from behind to give it more a authentic look. i believe they were made that way as i recall the arcades where poorly lit back in the day.

Nice!

[@FireBomberBassist]

Yo let me come by!

[@Extremedude9000]

The instructions from my assembly guide said to watch this video, but this video reverses a step and it kind of screws things up. On mine you can’t put both of the sides together and then just slide down “I” down the vertical shaft, it will never fit. You actually have to insert “I” first and then put the sides together, which is how the paper manual tells you to do that. I didn’t know the instructions would vary, so I watched the video and now I’m going to have to take it apart to fix it. I’ve been at this a while and my back hurts, so I’m not sure if I’ll do anything else tonight, but seriously, that really blew.

[@whodat610figgy3]

TY so much for this instruction video!! I just bought the MK arcade , the marvel vs. Capcom arcade and the killer instinct arcade last night for my gaming room in the basement! I am super stoked to assemble these and bring some of my childhood nostalgia into my home and into my children's lives! Now, I literally have every game system that has ever came out . Plus my all time favorite arcade games growing up! Ty very much! 💯🙏❤🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@donkeykongblz]

Now that's a quality build video!

[@infinitestop294]

I wish they would put up stargate . I love that game just bought the defender . Hooking it up in the morning . See what there talking bout

[@robc5768]

Need to update for the new machines with plastic protectors on the control panel. Hard to peel protective film off of them after the fact. Should also add a couple zip ties for the new lighted marque wires to clean up the dangling wire

[@MatthewJP1986]

This video was helpful. I watched it and referred to the assembly book as my cabinet had some variations. Setup took me 2 and a half hours but it looks great and I was really surprised by how it brightens up my room and looks so fun and cool. I will have to order more machines soon. Thanks for a quality product.

[@Yusei255]

What cabnits have you currently got.

[@ziggybammurphy191]

U guys hit a home run with MK2....Awesome machine....very easy to assemble...followed this video and didnt even need manual....Time for a Mario Bros Trilogy with Punchout, and a Ninja Gaiden Trilogy....this is my first 1Up machine and i love it....awesome unit.....worth the $

Just got the Mortal Kombat cabinet today :) Thank you, 1up!

[@trevorgoddard7947]

Any issues with it ?

[@MadSociety-uy6zg]

Thanks wow just wow curious for when I get the Mortal Kombat arcade machine that comes with the first 3 mortal Kombat games how to put it together doesn't seem complicated at all thanks I've always dreamt of owning an arcade machine especially Mortal Kombat remember as a kid playing those games in the arcade was blown away and never sadly played Mortal Kombat 4.

[@marieeeje]

Realistically this took me about an hour and now my hands lowkey hurt. Worth it but just wanted to leave an honest time-frame VS the "iT tOoK mE 30 mInS"

[@LilBrujoFH18]

This video is helpful. Buying the golden axe cab in a few days. Can not wait to set this up in my pc gaming room but I will have to change my speakers setup now. Speaker placement is very important

[@ThomasGrillo]

Is there a vid like this, but for the X-men 4 player? Mine came without it's assembly manual. Trying to figure out where the 4 H screws go.

[@Space-Man00-7]

you guys should also have a video on how to build the arcade riser

[@MichaelDwyerJr]

Pretty cool. Plan on getting that Rampage one. Old school memories.

[@jamesanthony8438]

Yeah, I just stumbled across their website a few minutes ago. Really need to get the Rampage, Gauntlet, Joust (and Defender, too, even though I never liked that game much) unit in my life! Spent so many Friday and Saturday nights after work at the local Putt-Putt shoveling money into Gauntlet with co-workers. "Warrior needs food badly" usually followed by: "Elf shot the potion!" ... I did that a lot, and never on purpose. _That's my story and I'm sticking to it!_ =)

[@redscorpion9325]

Im glad theres instruction video on KZbin,I will buy Arcade1up Marvel this week👍🏽

[@jaytrainer12]

Just got the Mortal Kombat one and it’s awesome. Just like back in the good ole days. Great product.

[@iguess_reo9021]

All we need is a Mortal Kombat one but this is definitely a buy

[@dragongamer2670]

No do more research on ebay trust me I just saved you

[@iguess_reo9021]

Dragon Gamer oh trust me, I know there is definitely a better option. It's just the matter of the design of it and of a smaller accurate model that helps bring back great memories

[@Chubzdoomer]

What better option are you guys talking about?

[@iguess_reo9021]

Chubzdoomer it's not really a better option with price but with the amount games you can play. This one is still better because of the price and weight of the cabinet

[@dragongamer2670]

Not really taking into account you can't do anything with this one and if it breaks you are screwed.

[@bessallin459]

My asteroids machine took maybe over an hour. The only difficult part was putting the two final screws in the monitor as once all sides on you’ve limited space to manoeuvre inside without lightning. Gonna start on the space invaders machine now

[@ronjeremy4571]

I messed up somewhere as when it was time to bolt down the controllers only one screw would screw down. Also I must've broke something as a plastic piece broke from the inside and fell to the bottom. Not sure where it came from 🤦🤦🤦 But it works👍

[@ILordSpawnI]

What program was used to create this video?

[@dextertheragdollcat213]

Just put together a Simpsons arcade1up. What a hassle - the light up marquee was ever so slightly warped which threw out the top assembly completely - IE the little dowels wouldn't line up with the holes. I got it together with a lot of swearing, banging, bending and pushing but there are some very small gaps including the right side of the marquee and the screen which now doesn't sit totally flush - you can just see a strip of brown MDF because the screen isn't sitting right against the right side of the cabinet. On another note, there was dust and debris under the plexiglass, something I didn't notice until it was installed and the protective sticker was removed. Also there's plastic residue from said sticker stuck under the top screws and there's no way to loosen them because the marquee is in the way and the screen is angled. To remove the screws and plexiglass I'd have to disassemble the marquee and after the trouble I had I'm not sure I could reassemble it.

[@KipdoesStuff]

Just bought the Galaga model. Might add support blocks at some 90 degree angles to keep the grandkids from destroying this too soon.

[@ThatWalmartGuy]

That was totally cool. I just got mine last night and I was hoping there was a video like this. Thank you

[@ThomasGrillo]

Thanks for the assembly instruction video. Loved the CGI animations. ;)

[@CimandeTube]

Best assembly guide in the world. Ikea take note

[@H.G-10]

Some of this info doesn't apply to the Marvel Cab. Step 12 for example in my instructions want me to put together B and M first together. You really should update this or make a newer one.

[@cosmodeluxe2993]

My screw driver doesn't have a yellow handle. Will this factor into the overall build?

[@geese4123]

does this apply for all new models too? im getting my marvel vs capcom cabinet from best buy today i wanna know if i follow this without reading instructions will it be the same

[@darkshadow38]

Nice instruction video but did I miss the part of the speakers ?

[@itsmadoublet]

If you guys make a 4 player model that has the Konami beat em ups (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Simpsons, X-Men) then you have yourself a sale.

[@davidadkins9657]

Personally I think they are missing the boat on this market. The cabinets are nice and all but why not have a USB drive that connects to the brains of the system. Making USB officially licensed add on games would sale these forever. Just saying everyone doesn't have space to buy a lot of these. I struggled finding spot for my Rampage cabinet but would love to legally add more games to my cabinet down the road.

[@jeremyriley1238]

A four-player one would be good, but chances are it would have those games due to them being tied to licenses to comic books and TV shows, meaning to get those games, Arcade1Up and Konami would have to negotiate with Viacom, Fox, and Marvel Comics to get their okay. Chances are if they did a beat-em-up, they would only use Capcom ones like Final Fight and Captain Commando.

[@davidadkins9657]

@@jeremyriley1238 that's not how it works konami has the rights to those games the only rights they need is from konami.

I bought the Galaga cabinet for my dad for Christmas, but I agree.. if a TMNT one came out, that puppy would be MINE.

[@GenghisKhanner]

Any chance you guys will make a NeoGeo MVS red cabinet? That would simply be amazing!

[@Videogamerdaryll]

GenghisKhanner I want

[@jamesanthony8438]

It would totally depend on licensing rights. They've secured them for the other games; they'd just need to do some legal and financial wrangling to get them for an upcoming release, which would probably depend on sales from the units they already have.

[@alexkelly6449]

Will this also work with the legacy cabinets ?

What about the volume cable? I did this but have no volume on mine?

[@ThomasGrillo]

Nearly done assembling my Galaga machine. Really appreciate the included plexiglass for the control panel. I did have to slide my bezel down an eighth of an inch to get the marquee to set flush to the monitor assembly, though. One important instruction was left out. Use an 8 foot, or 6 foot folding table to assemble the product on. It'll save your back, and knees. LOL. ;)

You don't need Games!

[@cameranmanner4701]

@@jgfjgfify i don't know how he can see the quality of the screens. my only issue is the connections for the monitor maybe a problem when you have to replace them. i don't see any manufacturers producing 4x3 monitors and even if you find a old 4x3 lcd computer monitor how do we interface. The strange thing that dragon is promoting is a diy cabinet that runs thousands of roms. it's great but what he fails to mention that all his roms are not legal and that's why it's cheap. the reality for arcade1up they chose this option of 3 games is to make it available for the masses and what concerns me is someone will hack the unit or replace the board to play a thousand games and kill the arcade1up system. i can see so many upgrades for this system. this may get arcade1up to start making other accessories, such as a lcd marquee that changes to what game that is playing. controller upgrades etc... or maybe start a cottage industry for some who want to revamp these into full size cabinets or whatever tickles the fancy of the buyer. down the raod there is some potential with these units.

[@DKTronics70]

Attach panel E, and that is where it gets fiddly. Unless you have a second helper, lining everything up to fit Panel E's holes, then it can get frustrating. Also, Step 12 is awkward because the screen can move making the holes harder to line up. Once past all that it becomes easy to finish.

Same here, I saw another video that said you may have to loosen the two bottom side screws and then wedge the front panel down so that it is all the way to the floor in step 14, then the piece in step 15 will slide down far enough to put the joystick control panel in place.
