Arcade1Up Deluxe Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition Review!

Arcade1Up Deluxe Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition Review! In this video I check out my recently purchased Arcade1Up Deluxe Street Fighter 2 Home Arcade. After giving up on waiting for an XL i took advantage of a sale to add this cab to my arcade. Not only is this a Arcade1Up Street Fighter release and game lineup I have never tried before but it's also my first deluxe cab. Will I be happy with my purchase?

Welcome to my channel. I have been playing and collecting games since 1987 and I use this channel to share my passion and memories of gaming. I review games that I believe are under appreciated or wrongfully dismissed on Game Genie Reviews. Video Game Nostalgia is a fun series where I take a look at a topic from my gaming past and share games that come to mind from it. I also do Top 10 lists, of course I do...what else is on youtube right? Well I like to think I put my own spin on them because they are based on my life in gaming. Hope you enjoy the channel and always looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi Everyone, Thanks for checking out the video! Let me know what you think of the Arcade1Up Street Fighter 2 Deluxe

[@carll8596]

Feels so right to see you review a A1UP cab! I love the form factor!!

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

I do too and thanks man!

[@baseball_rocks]

I'm really digging my Big Blue cab. Also came with a stool. Not a bad purchase at $399.99 USD. But the deluxe is also very esthetically pleasing. 🤝

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Nothing wrong with Big Blue

[@frostburn311]

Thank you for this great review! I've been watching a good amount of "Reviews" for this and other 1UP cabs and none of them really covered more than a few opinions with very little details or actual video of the games.

[@Th3DarkCanuck]

It's a very nice looking cabinet. Great review!

[@QW.821]

Always been my favorite reviewer, feels like 2019 again

[@EmeryArcade]

A Genie review....this is a treat. Feels like 2020 again. Cheers Mike.

[@davidnirtaut40]

Good and honest review. Mike enjoy your Easter Weekend with your family. Best wishes from Indiana.

[@carlo1132]

Blanca was always my favorite fighter, Deluxes are the new XL's not so sure they are going to do XL's anymore. I am looking forward to your ALP 4KP review, I think Atgames improved the flipper lag for sure and the OTG built in controls is nice too. Congrats on the pickup its a nice looking cabinet.

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Blanca is my kryptonite lol yeah I can’t wait to get my ALP 4KP, hopefully it won’t be much longer now

[@thefonzkiss]

Blanka FFS. For your favorite fighter you should know his name.

[@pc5440]

the sticks have a higher resistance elastic band inside? come on son!

[@andys_gameroom]

Yeah, these cabs look great. They did the design well. I'm not into the fighting games so I'm not getting this one, but it's one of their better looking cabs, hands down.

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

100% This deluxe is beautiful, what these cabs always should have been

[@fretburner8981]

Nice review. I'm hoping to score this one and the MK deluxe in a future (I hope, lol) sale.

[@timuhler8121]

I totally agree with you about the coin return. Thanks for the video well done.😊

[@stillMeNZa]

Great review . “Pizza the Hutt”😂. I got the cab on Amazon when they had that great deal around the holidays. I absolutely love the cabinet but I also wish the game line up was more varied.

[@Tim_York]

MichaelB, great review of the cab. Looks like a big improvement over my old cab. Lots of things that I would like, but I would not be happy to lose 1944. I love that game. 🖖🏼

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

I know, to me that’s the biggest oversight here not bringing that one back

[@GameroomGuru]

I’m really digging the intro music. I absolutely love my dynamo cabinet. However, I was one of the unfortunate people who got the Wibble wobbly deck extender.

[@ShowGamesX]

I connect the people. But it's fantastic how they put it in a box at the supermarket.

[@robkrasinski6217]

Do you have any tips for making cabs less wobbly on carpet, especially the riserless ones? My Fast and the Furious has a wobble to it so I pushed it against my dresser where my TV is and less wobble, but I have to hold it against the dresser by pushing the steering wheel toward the left.

[@wishiwasarockstr]

Great video Mike. It is definitely one of my favorite arcade 1 up cabinets. I also agree the sticks are a lot better, buttons are still junk. I swap my buttons on any fighting cabinet to happ buttons and cherry switches. Easy to do, not a bad mod , but a much better experience! So I feel it’s almost mandatory to swap the buttons to happ right away. Especially if you plan on keeping these Mike. Also , I would recommend to you Mike to do the easy “cord” mod on your T2. That I also believe is a must, it just looks so bad with the cords dangling in the front. Such a cleaning look to have the cords go inside. Easy to do, takes like 45 minutes max to do that mod. Just some advice Mike. And lastly, I know I give you a hard time a lot on super game room dudes. I apologize for that. I love watching on Fridays to that show, and always watch your show on Mondays. So I will try and do a better job of just being a better person, and not negative. 👍🏻

[@mikehawk-hertz8668]

You got me interested in this cab. I'm in a mindset now where I'm waiting for XLs and only getting other cabs on clearance / super sales

[@Jikangire957]

Two questions for you: I have Big Blue already and the screen isn't the best. In the video you said the SFII Champion Edition Deluxe uses a BoE screen, is this a different screen from what was used in Big Blue? My second question is in Big Blue the included version of Super Street Fighter II Turbo is the version of the game that was glitched where the difficulty level is set to the hardest level regardless of what you set the difficulty setting in the settings menu. Does the version of Super Street Fighter II Turbo included in your SFII Champion Edition Deluxe have a fixed version of this game? Thanks for the info!

[@marcludwick512]

For your second question, all U.S. region versions of SSF2 Turbo have that very hard glitch. The Japanese version is the only that plays like normal.

[@Calwinn]

What we all wanted for the Gen 1 cabs come to fruition

[@vilhelmstein2091]

Your video really shows how 2 players on this would be a super tight fit

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

That’s a big 10-4. 2 kids can probably play comfortably but 2 adults is pushing it

[@vilhelmstein2091]

@MichaelBtheGameGenie definitely buying this for the look as an art piece essentially

[@GenZod80]

I have the SF2 Legacy cab. I like it for the fact it has all the street fighters, especially the very first one. However, looking to possibly getting this because the look is very awesome. And to have a Regular sf2 cab and a sf2 CE cab would give me the feels of walking into an arcade all over again from back in the day.

[@deorio]

The legend has returned

[@alikeilani4234]

Hey Mike, love the content I would love to see a SF Cab similar to SF legacy line up including the Alphas and 3rd strikes…holding out until the cab comes out

[@Rich2rectro]

Love the original cab, as iv updated it to the 35th anniversary with new screen and deck and speakers

[@robkrasinski6217]

I got one cheap on ebay for under $300 in January. I didn't build it yet. It was from a business called buy here inc. I believe who sells on ebay. This cab apparently can be softmodded and you get to android through the calendar and settings. I got it for Final Fight because I already have a Big Blue but the game line up is different other than the three SFII games. in fact, I got some graphics and plexi bezel and marquee to make it a Final Fight.

[@michael9877]

I'm going to buy 1 soon. Plus T2

[@TheCornerCade]

Mike B the first cab without a deck protector was the Big Buck Hunter Deluxe 👊🏼

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Okay first can that may have needed it then

[@TheCornerCade]

@@MichaelBtheGameGenie agreed haha

[@Pugyeg]

Where’d you get these sales? I keep looking and no dice in Alberta

[@udstyle]

Good move! Highly suggest upgrading the buttons to real IL buttons for that peak nostalgia quality. It's a night and day feel

[@Rinsler123]

Are you going to bring all your machines like your Godzilla pinball machine and your machines in your office into that room and make one big arcade because that would be sick 🤘

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Godzilla Pinball yes. The AtGames stuff is staying in the office

[@gavin9303]

Where did you find on sale?

[@Travis-iy5xt]

How active are the online communities for these arcade 1up’s?

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Street Fighter has always been pretty decent

[@WillEvans15]

Still holding off for the XL 😌 if you know arcade 1up, just know it’s rare to get something brand new. I expect the entire wave one collection to be XL pretty soon.

[@moreyjamison]

Timed light up buttons tied to phones .. umm e-plugs 😆 Smart Plugs Grandpa

[@FloridaEbikes]

Remember the NES and game genie..... Pepperidge farms remembers....

[@emansfvera]

I still prefer big blue

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

I like the game list better for sure on Big Blue

[@JayPase]

My Chun-Li vs. your E.Honda 🥋✔️ When is the rematch Brother ?

[@jhbodle1]

People say that Arcade1up don't listen to complaints - they have made some mistakes in the past, but if you put their first SF2 cab up against this one the difference is night and day.

[@user-vg5rv5xf4u]

We want Strider!

[@kirkhilles523]

Forget the mess, HIDE those T2 wires!

[@bri.g.5105]

nice cab but never liked that gravel looking art

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Too each their own I guess. It’s iconic for me

[@stuntz0rZ]

Just bought the blue shinku edition because i found it for $350 so won't be getting this deluxe. it does look good though.

[@thefonzkiss]

“Diffrenentriate”

[@mightywhiskas3880]

2:23 total hadouken fail

[@preamstrikbiz0]

They’re still releasing these with no alpha series or street fighter 3 line of games , it’s useless to me

[@Triumph_or_Die]

*First!

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Congrats!

[@jesseochoa8930]

Cheap junk joysticks and garbage buttons. Absolute garbage that’s overpriced and missing several games such as Third strike and the Alpha series.
