wow, great video just became a subscriber also. I've only three calves thus far. Gallagher with 13 other games, including Miss Pac-Man, just picked up golden tea the Wi-Fi Costco version with Midway games and a cocktail head to head Mortal Kombat.

Hey Jason, always great to see your arcade room. I think you have one of the best layouts that I have seen on KZbin to date. Also I love you you rearrange them periodically to keep it fresh. I dont have any cabs yet, I seem to always miss these big deals that everybody gets. When I do get some I am definitely getting an MK, MvC, Street fighter (love the look of the legacy, but might hold off for big blue), TMNT, Ms. Pac Man, NBA Jam to start.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Thanks Nick, I really appreciate that man! I usually try to mix it up with the cab layout whenever a new cabinet enters the room. That list you got there is a great one. All amazing cabinets! I really can’t wait for the Big Blue. Street Fighter ll with WiFi will be a blast!

[@gamebroker_8465]

MFL was a genius move by Jong since a license on Blitz us unlikely to ever happen. I wonder where you will put iiRcade in your sweet arcade? I like your ranking of all the cabs very cool. For me Star Wars and Atari rank really high because they were icons of my childhood arcade experience.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Thanks Daniel! I really appreciate that man!

[@alexshdvideo]

I have limited space, so I’m just doing the Arcade1up Partycades. Put to right height on shelf and add a stool, it’s pretty good experience. For me it’s Asteroids, (8 game version) followed by PAC Man (4 games - 2nd generation PAC-Man.. the 8 game version would be better but that came 6 months later) and lastly Centipede (replaced the trackball with RetroArcade’s trackball.. much better... great for Missile Command). I will probably rebuild the deck however if I can find volcano buttons for the Missile basses and just swap out the deck. Things I don’t like about the Partycades is that the deck is flat to the floor and the monitor is flat to the wall, meaning 90’, not sloped like on the cabinets or even countercade (I have Space Invaders... poor monitor.. small screen - no planet/asteroid background). However If I ever want to gut the Partycades, I can make my own Bar-Cade with monitor/PCB and controls.

[@xXhiwakaXx]

If I were invited to your 3rd floor arcade room I'd definitely go for MvC, Golden Axe, Frogger, Mvsx, NBA Jam, Tmnt and Msh cabs as those would be my in my top 15 list to name a few. I take it that the 1st wave Tmnt cabinet is staying put in the 3rd floor arcade instead of purchasing the new Turtles in Time cabinet complete with Wi-Fi enabled online play and light up deck protector and marquee. I have the wave 1 Tmnt cab as well and I'm on the fence if I want to get it for the online play. Looking forward in seeing the reviews of the future cabs that you'll get to add to your arcade floor space!!!

I just have 4 cabs, currently, but I'd also rank Marvel vs Capcom as #1. That said, I have a question, if you don't mind: How is the sound on your MvC cabinet vs, let's say, Marvel Superheroes cab or the TMNT cab? Personally, MvC doesn't sound bad for me, but Superheroes and Turtles just blows away MvC in terms of the sound and how loud it gets. I'm hoping I'm just an isolated incident, but I feel like my MvC cab got packed with less than stellar speakers. I'm sure I'll replace it at some point with new speakers. Just curious what it's been like for you. Not only that, but maybe how does all of your cabs sound in comparison with each other? Are they all great or are there any sub-par? Thanks and great video, btw. Rankings are always fun...

yours are for the most part unmodded - correct? i finally got the MVSX hyloX and it makes a huge difference - i am using it a lot more! 😅

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Yep. All my Arcade1ups are totally stock. I like to keep those just with the games they come with. That MVSX is amazing! 👍

[@dilbertdad1994]

can you run hyloX on something like a marvel vs capcom 1uparcade or does it need to be a SNK Neo Geo MVSX Arcade Cabinet?

[@fahriakalin5936]

Rick Skawinski - it is designed for the MVSX - the game packs are easy to install and work like a layered cake ; you add them one at a time - they’ve all run smoothly so far

I see that your MVSX has Windjammers on it, but I don’t have that on my cabinet. Are there different versions of that cabinet or something?

[@somechristiandude2496]

Hey Jason, just wondering when you sell your arcade1ups how much of a markdown do you sell them at? For example, if you were to sell big buck hunter give me a price you would sell it for (voluntarily) and how much you bought it for. Also in Canada they cost around 600 and never go on sale, but our minimum wage is $12 so what would you sell it at if you lived in Canada and bought it for that price? - Canadian Fan

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Hi Zane! Thanks for checking out the video! When I sell a cabinet, I usually aim to get at least half of what I paid for it. The Big Buck cab I believe I paid 499 for it so I’d normally let it go for at least $250. Seems fair for both parties! 👍

You forgot the Neo Geo lol but I agree the MvC cab is top notch

Last year I bought a diy arcade cabinet with 40 inch led tv & sanwa buttons. Then manually installed launchbox/mame/no-intro roms/etc, and now it has more than 30000 games - all in a single cabinet. Isn't that way simpler and more efficient, rather than owning tens of thousands of arcade cabinets?

[@3rdFloorArcade]

The big multicades are awesome. I have one with thousands as well but I also enjoy having the dedicated cabinets with the artwork, online play, etc.

[@SoulforSale]

So the MVSX with the Hylo Hack doesn't even get an honorable mention? To me it is the best in the pile.

[@3rdFloorArcade]

I was just ranking the A1UP cabinets in this video. I put the MVSX ahead of all the A1UPs. My top 3 machines are the iiRcade, MVSX and the Marvel vs Capcom 👍

@@3rdFloorArcade I suppose if you get one on Walmart clearance (150-200 per cab) I would buy to my heats content on games I have a personal nostalgia for.

[@EQOAnostalgia]

These arcade 1 up arcades just don't make sense to me... yall want multiple cabs which is why you don't have someone like Rec room masters commission to make you one, then you cram them all together and utterly hide the side panel art lol. HUH!? I mean to each their own... but i just don't get it man. You can have half the cabs, twice the quality, and all the style of the side art being able to BREATHE!

[@rickhoes6326]

Yeah, quite the dilemma eh?? Well what if we don't cram them in... then we have a full arcade of cabinets with the most accurate artwork, thus the most accurate experience. I have many more than Jason has and I don't have my artwork hidden. Takes just a little finesse and brainstorming to get the optimal setup.
