As a long time Pac-Man fan, I thought $180 was insanely steep for that stick. BUT, I was willing to still buy it BECAUSE it's Pac-Man. I was disappointed because there was no speed settings for Galaga or Pac-Man, but I figured no big deal since there was a micro SD card slot allowing for me to add games. Once I saw that you couldn't, there was no way I was buying this. Thank you for the video!

Rolling Thunder is really fun. Just started getting into it. Very hard but fun, and some of the best music ever.

Woah. $180. Just goes to show A1U is not shy about ripping off their customers. I’ve gotten similar things to this in the past for my mom for less than $50. Makes me question their pricing on everything. Like those damn stools being nearly $100. I’ve seen stools with the same exact design going for less than half that price which means it probably even less to manufacture them. So A1U has like at least a $70 markup. I get they have to license the graphics and share profits but that’s still crazy high. Especially since the stool is barley comfortable.

Fair play to you for going out and buying this so the rest of us don't have to. I really think the absence of a rechargeable battery pack is either lazy or cheap, the USB is on the back on the control deck so it must have been though of at one stage and then they decided not to. Like you say, the price is WAY too high for what it is and there are other devices already established in the market that do things much better.

PDubs, I wonder, since Couchcade does come with a pairing mode, if you could pair it with the older Mega Man TV unit. Then you can use the Couchcade controller to play the extra games :) vgv

PDubs, Worth a try though :) If they ever make a Golden Tee Couchcade, and make sure it doesn't come with Wifi, so it doesn't break after you get it, I'm all in :P :) I'd love to play Golden Tee on my 120" Projector Screen :) vgv

Legends Gamer Mini with coinopsx is more worthwhile. You mentioned audio lag on this. I'm not surprised.... I was wondering if you also noticed similar Audio lag on Legends Gamer devices? I have a few Gamer pros, and they all have a slight bit of Audio delay/lag. I have tv on gamer mode and usb connected. It seems like it's something easy to correct but no one makes a big deal out of it.

I noticed a bunch of these arcade1ups, legends gamer and ultimates, have that ever SLIGHT AUDIO LAG. But it's something most of us live with, since everyone likes the overall presentation vs the perfect authentic performance. (I know most of us wish AtGames and Arcade1up would pay more attention and fix this important detail about Audio Lag, & then we wouldn't have to pull out another device-Pi4, PC, etc...).

And with the release of arcade 1up Tron Dragons lare and space ace.. definitely quite surprised me.. I would definitely own those if I could afford it.. But they can only go with NAMCO only for so long.. They need to start deep diving into other arcade manufacturers of the time.. ATARI WILLIAMS CENTURI STERN you know berserk and frenzy.. SNK NEO GEO SEGA and so on. Pac-Man and galaga can only go so far.. until the customer base get bored.. Just a theory and a hunch..

Can you use the control deck with the old Arcade1up hdmi console?

dumb question. I know it's been a minute but do you know if this via usb connects to the other unit with the awful controller?

@@PDubsArcadeLoft No need to be sorry. Probably just as well off not knowing haha. I had a pacman jr that was destroyed. Toyed with idea of adding the older box with crap controller and this deck to see if they would work as it has the usb a connections. So my thought was to just see if the usb micro would plug into and play. I dropped a 15"dell in the thing with a pi lol Anyway, thanks for your response. Caleb Williams or keep fields? lol

Does any one know what games are in the Ms. PacMan 40th Anniversary 10-IN-1 Bandai Legacy Edition Arcade with Licensed Riser and Light-Up Marquee, Arcade1Up at Walmart? I hate the fact they do not put the game lists on the pages.

Do you think this is good for someone who only likes pac man. Or could you suggest some other options. Thank you!
