Arcade1Up Reveals 2023 Lineup - And It's TRASH!

[@airwolfkorn]

I wish they revealed they made them affordable again.

[@The_Bad_Guy.]

I mean 500 is pretty reasonable actually. If they made them for 200 dollars they would be absolute crap.

[@ghostlegit]

@TheBadGuyMikeWerley 500 is not reasonable lol. All they do is stick a tablet inside and make an emulation machine. There is nothing that makes them 500 dollars worth. 350 or 300 is reasonable but 500 is kinda meh

[@The_Bad_Guy.]

@@ghostlegit you're never going to see them for 300-350. Unless it's 2nd hand or clearance. Considering these things sell for 6-700 some times 4-500 is a fair price for them. One which most people feel comfortable with.

[@Not-Great-at-Gaming]

Remove online functionality, all of the extras like signs and stools, possibly remove the lighted marquee, keep the riser which I assume is cheaper for shipping, then they can be back to $350-400. Basically, go back to the cheap wal-mart versions. In reality, they know that if they spend an extra $50 on those things, they can raise the price $200.

[@landscapingspecialist]

They will tell you they are affordable. Things are only going up from here. Sux, but is reality.

[@NaeroK87]

I guess their reason for the re-releases is “let’s make it look exactly like the original cabinet” which I wish they would’ve done in the beginning

[@cabbusses]

They better nail the Waco leaf joystick feel then.

[@DefyantFoxV2]

Idk miss pac man seems necessary

[@X2011racer]

@@DefyantFoxV2 It's likely a minor update to correct the credits so that GCC and AtGames are properly credited. The previous versions credited Bandai Namco, which is no longer correct.

[@generalcjg]

I just want Arcade rereleases of Time Crisis 2-3 and especially Star Wars Trilogy Arcade (1998). Those are the arcade games that would make me spend $500-600 dollars on an arcade cabinet. They really should do these arcade games.

[@Retroman2000]

Thhhhank You!🙏

[@rbgrules]

The slot machine is the only thing that pushes them further, but that will be a very small market of people that want it. In regards to The Simpsons I got mine for $300 and they fixed the audio synching issues. I also soft modded it and put TMNT and Turtles in Time on it making it a GREAT cabinet.

[@ressljs]

I know some older people that would probably enjoy the casino machine. But... I'm not sure they are the kind of people that buy Arcade1Up machines.

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

The ability to soft mod is was a major part of why I bought it. I've got a long USB extension cable that I can access from outside of the cabine, which makes it easy to do anything that I would need to plug a USB drive in for. Well worth the investment, especially if you're going to be doing something crazy like taking the Turtles games from that collection from last year and running it on the arcade1up cabinet.

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

@@ressljs I suspect that the cost of doing it is marginal and they'll have to sell only a fraction of the cabinets that they would for licensed property to turn a profit.

[@dwayne601]

I do like the casino idea. This might be their new thing where we see a slew of casino machines maybe even slot machines

[@CasepbX]

I want a Daytona USA one. Would just need to find a place for it...

[@cottyspub]

Hey RGT, love watching your videos! As I agree with the frustrations as a continued buyer of these cabinets I'm probably the small majority that has never bought a cabinet. That being said I have been waiting for a taller riser-less cabinet that looks more like the original so for me I'm excited to buy the Ms. Pac-Man to start some of the deluxe collection. For a new user I think this is nice to see Arcade1Up do this. Just my opinion.

[@ladynikkie]

I think maybe if they do SNK games Neo Geo arcade cabinets, that would probably pick people's interests as well.

[@Not-Great-at-Gaming]

There's already a Neo Geo cabinet on the market and it's better than most of the Arcade 1 Up machines.

[@DoinStuff4Life]

why would SNK do that? they can and have already made one of these themselves. its quite nice actually. the MSX

A1up always drops the evergreen arcades at CES and the more interesting ones later in the year. It's great to finally see the riser-less arcades and can't wait for a Star Wars Atari re-release down the road. Also...I waited for years to buy one since i despise the risers...so I'm looking at you Class of 81 👀

[@louisdellalucca8969]

I hope they do a riser-less Golden Axe machine.

[@halfadozen6]

I like the risers personally & they definitely provided a sturdier footprint on these lightweight cabinets.

[@chadwolf3840]

Arcade 1ups are just too cheaply made to justify their prices.

[@flightofapaullo72]

Berzerk, Robotron, Gyruss, Moon Patrol, and Black Tiger would be cool. Not to mention many other great arcades.

[@hellacia8151]

Donkey Kong is what I want but I know Nintendo would NEVER allow it

[@Not-Great-at-Gaming]

Glad to see you called out the online functionality of the new cabinets. Unfortunately, they've added this feature which costs them a few bucks and used it as leverage to raise prices by a lot more and re-release the same cabinets. I am one of the people who wants QBert, but I won't buy it for $500 or higher. I don't care about online leaderboards, riserless design, etc.

[@Ruffi0]

“A few bucks”

[@TumoFiji]

Spot on analysis RGT85! I do love the new no riser taller cabinet look/function though.

[@legatomodi3522]

Marble Madness would be pretty sweet to be remade like this. That would be a cool cab. The arcade battle toads would probably be a nice surprise too. Seriously, there's an arcade version that's not like all the other battle toad ports that's awesome.

[@thinds5271]

Mm would be awesome. Love that game.. never beat it

[@legatomodi3522]

@@thinds5271 I've only seen it played on arcade. It's got an actual ball you spin around instead of a joystick. I played the NES one alot but I always wanted to try out the arcade one.

[@DaeguDown]

Off Road 4 player wheels

[@tazatom]

I always thought having that board game screen be great for RTS games and make it feel like a military commander that is controlling the army and if it was big enough for 2 players. Starcraft or total war would be neat

[@jbpmichel]

Bummer!! Yeah, doesn't sound amazing, but I have been enjoying my Arcade1up. Paid $200 for the Simpsons Arcade on clearance at Walmart. So pleased with that purchase. That's my price point lol Going to mod it with some other 2 button and stick arcade games eventually. Will be a permanent fixture in my gameroom :)

[@BergnerBunch]

Agreed 100% I want more variety as well. Wishing for more racers! They could come out with Roadblasters! I would buy it! Make a House of the Dead trilogy multicade? Something different. Different in a GOOD way! Great video!

[@lazarushernandez5827]

Some of these 1 Up machines become really expensive on the second hand market (looking at that Outrun cabinet released a while back; didn't have disposable income when it came out), I don't see a problem with an updated re-release of some of those cabinets.

[@goldenheartOh]

Same here. I bet the reality is 1up is near max capacity on its manufacturing abilities. Investing tons of money to expand so they can make even more models at a time when the economy is tanking isn't a good bet.

[@iNFiNiTTiB]

$500 for a game that you can play anywhere... I get their hustle. But do games that are hard to get like "Power Stones" I would buy that 1up

[@WoTaWrEkK]

I only want them to re-release the X-Men vs Street Fighter cab as I missed out on it the first time round. MVC is one of my favourite fighting games of all time and the games in that cab are amazing. But I'm so uninspired by the new additions so don't blame you for backing away from buying them

[@popculturehero]

You got to have the big recognizable names for casual consumers, and for retailers to be interested. And Pac man is evergreen making them money year after year. I almost bought that capcom machine with Strider, don't really have the space though. Virtual On and Crazy taxi would be a dream sega machine.

[@SteveBrandon]

I don't have the money or space for an Arcade 1up but, if I did (just hypothetically), the one game I'd consider buying an Arcade 1up for is OutRun 2 though it would have to have the Ferrari license and contain both OutRun 2 and OutRun 2 SP and probably also OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast even if that one was a console game (and, if they were paying to license from Sega and Ferrari anyway, F355 Challenge should probably also be in there as a bonus game).

[@Karateka1973]

We bought our youngest son the A1UP TMNT for Christmas of 2019. He was ecstatic and played it for about 2 months with his siblings or when his friends came over. He sold in 2021, rook the funds and combined it with his Ninetendo Switch trade-in and bought a Switch OLED. We did the math and realized that for the cost of 4 A1UPs at today's prices, and I could buy a Dreamarcade with 200 licensed games from Williams, Midway, Taito and Capcom.

[@Theedgecrusher93]

I like the size of the 1ups. I have a Buck Hunter, Golden Tee, modded Street Fighter, and getting ready to mod Ridge Racer (I'll get Daytona the hard way I guess). I always wait until the cabs drop a couple hundred before I purchase. This latest announcement is not exciting to me.

[@bluejayguy05]

The best thing this company could do is listen to their customer base and provide polls. This then identifies the customer's desire.

[@Canadiansamurai]

How about an arcade 1-up of the Time Crisis games???

[@Theedgecrusher93]

Time Crisis is confirmed

[@alfredcernuto]

I’m moving into a bigger place this year and this is the first time I’m thinking about actually buying a 1up. The 81 in 1 seems interesting to me.

[@SteveVsManCaveArcade]

At the beginning of the year they seem to do the legacy cabinets/ re-releases of cabs they know will sell. Even with this being the case iam definitely burned out with seeing cabs I just bought be redone a year later. There only so many times I can upgrade my MK, Pacman and Ms.Pacman before I just decide iam done. That's where iam kind of at right now. Might be done

[@halfadozen6]

This isn’t the lineup for 2023. They’re a few redesigns of existing cabs they’re putting out. They do this annually around CES, I’m pretty sure you’re aware of this. Later in the year they almost always announce other cabinets/products.

[@MarkIrwin02]

I'd like to see the wrestling games, the avengers, samurai warriors, Spiderman the arcade game. Games like that would be awesome to have.

[@urluberlu2777]

Likewise: I love the countercades (i got limited space in my basement) and purchased the original Pacman and Mrs Pacman, and got really excited when Defender came out! I've been browsing their site monthly ever since and was ready to buy the next new thing but kept seeing pacman over and over again. I'm seriously looking at modifying one of them countercades or even a cabinet for a better joystick, more buttons and maybe trackball and have the cpu swapped for a RasPi with retro emulator. That'll be it for me, unless they surprise me with something new.

[@kilibobo1978]

I think an arcade 1up naomi cabinet with virtua fighter 2 virtua striker 2 virtua tennis 2 & virtua nba would have been a blast

[@sixmillbaby]

1000% agree. As someone with disposable income who’s purchased and sold 15 of these; I agree that they’re dipping into the well a little too much and have gotten lazy. I’ve been suckered enough times to upgrade my legacy cabs for small incremental improvements and I just won’t continue falling for the same trick. MVC2 was the crown jewel for me and I’m content with my remaining 5 cabs with around 40 or so games. I like the idea of the casino games but they need significantly more new licenses instead of rehashing the same old stuff. How about a Konami legacy cab with Contra, Super C, Gradius, Lifeforce and CastleVania among other classics? how about a 4 player legacy cab with X-Men, Simpsons, Turtles, Sunset Riders and Mystic Warriors? How about Street Fighter Alpha series or SF3 cab? There’s more competition for what’s already an extremely niche market so they better evolve and diversify otherwise they’ll be out of biz soon. Just look at all the markdowns….

[@loopedchris2231]

As we are quite new to the hobby we are really excited to have a chance to buy Ms. Pac-Man - Hopefully it comes to the UK! But I would love to see games like Jurassic Park and Point Blank! Maybe one day!

I would absolutely love a Battletoads cabinet, it was so fun playing with other people at the arcade back in the day.

[@doug86]

Great video RGT, I've watched you for years, I now have my own Arcade1up channel and cover everything you just covered twice a week lol.

[@RenegadePandaZ]

Honestly I think I paid full price for one of these, and it was the BurgerTime one. I have 6 of them now, and all of the other ones I got on clearance for between 100-300 bucks. The Simpsons one I snagged for 300 at BestBuy, and they've had tons of the higher end ones on sale too like the T2 one. I don't have any space or money right now, so I'm sticking with the few I have. If anyone really wants these, I implore you to wait for a sale, since retailers hate these things, because they are a complete pain to stock, so they drop the prices quickly to get rid of them.

[@TheH454]

Yup. Sign up for the deal of the day email from Best Buy. I've seen The Simpsons with stool go for as low as $250.

[@NICKTHIZZEZ]

I’d personally love to see a TEKKEN Tag Team arcade , and a SILENT SCOPE arcade. Best games ever

[@amazingeric97]

Agreed. Tekken & Soul Edge Blade Caliber series need to become Arcade 1up machines.

[@Derecuda]

Time Crisis would be cool too, but I agree with your 3 games. Crazy Taxi would maybe be the only one I'd buy at full retail, and I've bought 3 discounted pretty heavily. I want The Offspring playing in my living room, but they'd need better speakers with that or Daytona!

[@X2011racer]

If Crazy Taxi were to be rereleased, it's most likely going to get the PS3/XB360 Soundtrack or yet another Soundtrack of lesser known Indie Rock Bands.

[@EternalDarknessAboveTheBlueSky]

It's not so bad. Not every interested person necessarily bought one already. Now they don't have to pay high aftermarket prices.

Did he just say that iiRcade has the games that people had to wait on to play like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat? iiRcade has none of those games. Arcade1up has those games....

[@DoinStuff4Life]

Ok let's make some corrections here 1. SEGA isn't that into licensing out a lot of their IP's now, it just is what it is, they gave outrun (which while popular, isn't the first game you think of when you think of their arcades) but they are holding the really big IP's close to their chest, for now. I would see this change as SEGA stops making mini's. I've read in Japan news media that they may in fact be making their own "arcade 1up like " cabs. so if they don't, they may just license it all out. 2. EVERYONE releases product early now, its the way of the world...they do it to get the MVP out and then do updates, I can't think of a game in the last 10 years that hasn't done this...while i'm not a fan, i don't see it changing anytime soon. so you gotta deal with it. 3. for the price, you are still getting something that is at LEAST 500.00 or more cheaper than owning the actual arcade game...and as the retro craze continues...arcade machines will even be MORE expensive (EX: Midways Mortal Komat 3 arcade was 800.00 in 2017, you can't touch these now for less than 1500). 4. They didn't make the big machines at launch because of costs , at the time, it wasn't cost effective for a new company (new to this genre) to do that ANNND, there was no demand for it, but now, costs are cheaper and there is a huge demand for full size. 5. The average person...DOESN'T already have an Arcade 1up. Mostly collectors of retro games buy these, there's some cross over but its no where near the coverage they want. No company is going to reissue something if the market is already saturated or a majority of the market has one. These bigger machines and the slot machine will open up a new market for them, which is what the company needs if you wanna eventually see all the games you want. You talk out of both sides of your mouth and sound like a whiney little girl.

I agree. I only own 1 arcade1up (T2) n bought it SOLELY because it had one game and one game only, the one u see on the cab. As it was in the arcade days. As it was meant to be. I would love "pro" guns (since they can detatch) to buy separately but other than that. It gave me that nostalgic experience I was looking for. Would love to see (in this order) revolution X, area 51, maximum impact, house of the dead (love arcade rail shooters lol) and any Virtua cop. Wouldn't mind virtua fighter either. If they make more light gun cabs tho, with just better qaulity guns (the T2 ones aren't HORRIBLE but Def "cheap" feeling) I'd buy more all day! I think Revolution X would be an e z one to do. It's like T2, from midway etc, maybe only issue would be the Aerosmith license rights? Idk but if they made that cab, with 3 guns (like the original cab had) n did like t2 (only that game and maybe a behind the scenes) I'd buy it all day. They also made a KI (killer instinct) pro model? Idk much about it but it looks like it has better speakers. So maybe a pro model (since Aerosmith) for Revolution X. 3 strong durable guns, great speakers, man that would be one sweet ride!

[@antneumann5874]

I agree with you 1000% with everything you've said and also as a 1up cab buyer started great out the gate I've got 6 1up cabinets and yes they do need to come out with newer 3D 90's arcade games. Like Area 51, moto bike with the bike you sit on to play, Rush or a guitar hero. I said A not all just one of them with an extensive song list to play. As for all the old retro and Atari games guys I'm all for it and them but all those games if they continue to keep coming out with them they need to be like the first 1up style and sell all those games like multicade cabinets with max of 5 to 9 games on them. Like the first pac man 1up they sold with galaga & dig dug on it. But YES ARCADE 1UP YALL ARE DROPPING THE DAMN BALL AND HAVE LOST SIGHT ON WHAT THE BUYER EXPECTATION STANDARDS ARE OR WERE AT FIRST AND YALL SET THAT BAR WITH HIGH HOPES FOR ALL THESE GREAT NEWER 90'S & NEWER ARCADE GAMES AND STARTED GREAT BUT HAVE LEFT US AS THE CONSUMER WITH WONDERING WHAT ARE YALL DOING COMING OUT WITH SINGLE GAME RETRO ARCADE CABS AND ASKING WHERE ARE ALL THE MORE EXCITING & BETTER ARCADES.

You're not wrong about releasing new titles but you're thinking like a collector and not a corporation.

I'm actually kind of hoping they re- release Star Wars in the new cabinet. I missed it the first time around and now they are crazy expensive

[@adultmoshifan87]

We need more old games to be more easily available through legal means and Arcade1up were experts at this! I can play games like Pac Man, Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat on ALMOST ANYTHING! What I want is stuff like Turtles, The Simpsons, X-Men, stuff that has NOT gotten so many legal rereleases! If I were Arcade1up, my 2023 lineup would look more like THIS: Daytona USA - includes Daytona USA, Daytona USA 2, Indy 500, maybe also the Saturn's Daytona USA CCE The Simpsons Couchcade - same as the standalone cabinet but with better emulation, Bowling preinstalled and the ability to link 2 Couchcades together for 4 player Sonic 3 & Knuckles - Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles, Sonic Championship and Sonic 3 & Knuckles, both Sonic 3s having the Michael Jackson music restored Point Blank - Point Blank 1, 2 and 3, possible also Ghoul Panic Ninja Baseball Bat Man - Ninja Baseball Bat Man and some other Irem games, R-Type 1 and 2 would be very likely additions

You mentioned how the sound is subpar, it got me thinking... what if they used some of the empty cabinet space to house TOP-NOTCH speakers, to where it's almost like, you're really buying fantastic speakers that happen to have a videogame wrapped around them.

I really hate that I bought the Marvel vs Capcom 2 1up Arcade thinking that I was going to get a premium product but but the online was not working on that game and major slow downs so the main selling features are not working it made me so upset.

[@cjneal6344]

Waiting for the Rush cabinet for racing and would love to see them release a full metal cabinet or better quality wood cabinet update.

[@CallMeConstantine]

I waited on the Simpsons and paid $250 for it around Christmas. It came with a stool and metal sign. Good deal. Now I know to wait for everything and build it out slowly.

[@TheGamingHoser]

Why they didn't do this in the first place? I think its obvious. The business model is built on the same customer base re-buying upgraded versions of the same cabinets. This is exactly why every iteration intentionally leaves out obvious "upgrades"; so they can release another upgraded version with those features to keep the cycle of buying/replacing. Even these new models will be upgraded eventually to have: bigger screens, real t molding, quality controls, working coin door.

[@joshuanoles]

I don't own any of these as I don't have the space in my house to put them anywhere. But when I was in the market to buy one, there wasn't anything I thought would be worth the $300 to purchase it. When they finally had arcades that I wanted, they were charging $400 and that's when I really questioned buying one. Not that it's too much money but $300 was about where I felt like I didn't want to spend that much. So as they continue to increase in price, and will worse features, I would look to other places if and when I'm in the market for something like this again.

To be fair when they first announced the Legacy lineup two years ago they said that the legacy lineup of cabs would release every year. They also confirmed Daytona a while ago. They have the license and are working on it but its not ready to be shown off now. And at CES they said this is just the first set of announcements for the year. They usually make announcements at CES, E3 and end of Summer and we saw Time Crisis leaked last year so we know thats probably coming later this year as well. I agree that for the price they need to up their game in terms of these crappy speakers and whatnot but new stuff is coming.

[@punkydudester3]

The entire concept of why these arcades had any success is because they were cheap options for an arcade experience with quality in mind. As these get more expensive the average person will completely write off the entire thought of owning any like me. $300 was a great fair price. $700 & up they can screw off.

[@steve_en5903]

I’m so pissed. The Aussie grocery chain Aldi sold the street Fighter 2 cabinets for about about $250…now you can get one for about $900

[@emansfvera]

Dam I thought you would have appreciated the arcades without the risers. I think they look waaaaaaay better that way. Should have been done that way from the beginning tbh.

[@badbirdkc]

I'm sure they have the sales data to back up the constant reissue of Pac Man and MK. Back before the 1up era, pretty much the only arcade game you could buy was the Ms. Pac Man/Galaga combo at high end game room stores. So I get that, BUT, if they're going to reissue stuff, why not the Sega racing cabinet? Or the Golden Axe cabinet? Or Dragon's Lair? Those seemed to have sold like hot cakes, even at the crazy price point. I just don't have the room, and certainly don't have the money, but I would love to see something different. I just don't know what else is mainstream enough. I'd love to see a Neo Geo or Daytona USA or some kind of After Burner collection.

[@wheskeraustere5642]

Would think tetris, columns, San Francisco Rush would all be games to go for. I think every year should have a score based arcade game and time based arcade game. Then they should do 1 just awesome game that doesn't have a score system. And personally I think that would be a solid yearly model. 3 games 2 that give the arcade feel and 1 that's just a fun game in a cabinet. Marvel vs Capcom 1 or 2. I can name a handful that are fun arcade esc. Could even do Sonic where it has a score mode or time records that scroll by while not in use. I did see someone buy a Ms Packman recently but expanding is always the way to go and keeping things arcade esc

[@dankforest]

Ya...... I love arcades. My uncle bought this custom 5000 cabinet that plays everything. Its pretty dope. And yes he has the at homea pinball too

[@adventuretaco7140]

Lol I’m digging the almost full Sized cabs! That ms Pac-Man looks dope!

[@MrBluesMessiah]

He's agreeing with you that they look dope, but for most Arcade1Up fans, who's going to buy yet another Pac-Man cabinet just becuase it looks a little different? I mean, there are 14 different partycade/countercade versions, 3 different cocktail cabinets, and I lost track of how many actual Pac-Man cabinets they have made.

[@adventuretaco7140]

@@MrBluesMessiah totally bogus for day one 1up enthusiasts.. had they gone with the tall cabs from the beginning I’d have a couple of those already sitting in my game room ..

[@mr_m4613]

Ms Pac man arcade 1up is all you need, even today the game is still god tier.

[@GeoffreyCraig22]

It looks like it's still actually two pieces, you can see a faint line under Raiden's neck. They look better than the original 3/4 size, but the price has skyrocketed. I'd love to see them get some new classics like Tekken, Soul Calibur, or Sega Rally, but I don't think they will pay those license fees.

[@MathieuLeblanc1991]

Arcade1Up was supposed to release joysticks with built in Disney games and it never came out, there was a Mickey Mania one and a DuckTales one with NES, SNES and Game Boy Advance Disney games

[@flamefury42]

I modified my Street Fighter arcade1up. It’s got over 2,000 games. Saves on space for me. I really want a tekken arcade cab now.

[@RafaelQuintanaRivera]

Agreed. Although right now I only have 2 ( the og champion edition and mvc2) I also owned the MK2 legacy and MVC1. All those were great. We really dont need another re-release of MK or SF(unless they do the alphas or third strike). I would love to see virtua fighter ,tekken , time crisis,after burner... so many other games. Pacman is a classic but whatever you can choose out of the 5000 cabinets they have already released. Great video RGT.

[@EpicPour99]

These things are WAY too expensive

[@yoshizagu]

It's my 1st ms.pacam so I'm Getting this slanted version High Five fellas !

[@alanrichardson6561]

The Infinity game board seems neat especially since its being smaller it will be a lower price then these things go on sale often.

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

A lot of games are better with a computerized interface, but if it's a game like Risk where you have secret cards to go with the board, that can be a challenge to do. But, with a game like Monopoly where you don't really have secret cards, it would speed things up a lot.

[@KISSFan1977]

I overall agree, while I do like the proper slant on the monitors on the new Pacman\Ms. Pacman cabinets I cannot justify buying Pacman and Ms. Pacman yet again when the cabinets I got are fine.

[@pacsonic9000]

The Ms. Pac-man and Galaga combo one is designed after the Ms. Pac-man Galaga Class of 81 cabinet released in 2001. There's one at a local pizza parlor near me.] Fun fact, on the game select screen on the actual Ms. Pac-man Galaga Class of 81 machine, press up, up, up, down, down, down, left, right, left, right, left. You will then hear a ding ding ding sound if done correctly. Press one of the Ms. Pac-man buttons and you're playing Pac-man.

[@cusernament]

Seems like they are treating these things like phones - and now different versions of the same thing released at the same time. I'd love to have the MK cabinet, but the reviews just haven't been good enough for me to empty my wallet - things like the marquee blocking people's sight line of the screen. I don't get how they can overlook things like that.
