Arcade1Up That I Didn't Buy & Why

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Thanks for watching guys! See i didn't buy every Arcade1Up lol. Has anyone here had a similar reason to me as for why they didn't grab a specific Arcade1Up?

[@petergriffinelectricdrums4164]

😆🤟 I’m the SAME BRO - I refused too buy Cabs / Games I ALREADY HAVE!! Haha 😂 it makes No Logical Sense?? 100 different PacMans 100 different Ms Pac different Artwork Turtles 🐢 different Street fighters Mortal Kombats, On n On n On…. If I already have those games I think people are really stupid lol 😂 too spend another $500 plus to get THE SAME DAMN GAMES!!!!!!! I’ve only got NEW TITLES- Simpsons, Killer Instinct/ Terminator 2!!!! People excuse on why buying same but newer cabs is ridiculous lol 😂 they say the artwork is cooler..?? Uuhh I see everyone’s Arcade1up rooms ALL THEIR CABS ARE SO CLOSE TOGETHER YOU COULDNT SEE ARTWORK ANYWAYS???????? Haha LoL 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 Idiots 😂😂😂

[@wesleyjackson1222]

I think it is great you have a hobby. It is hard to resist them. I have only bought 6, but I could see myself having 10 more. Here is wishing for Daytona and House of the Dead this year !!🤑 Take my money. Lol.

[@Jason_NSS]

Fun video to watch. Its great that we can all make our arcade rooms the way we want them to be. Picking the right cabinets that’s right for us individually, and re creating the arcade atmosphere that makes us happy. I can’t wait to see your T2 video Michael B! 💪🏻

[@stonysnuggets]

very much enjoy your videos dude. your laugh is great, its like laughing with an old friend. keep them coming brother

[@beastsarcade4351]

I’m with you Michael B…I’ve been waiting for a classic arcade light gun cab from A1up. I can’t wait to get T2. It comes out in Australia in March! Looking forward to your review!

[@nobrakes3765]

A pop screen or mic off-centre or angled will remove the P plosives in the audio. Love your videos, Michael, and still love the Asteroids cab I have with aftermarket light up marquee and optical spinner. Lunar Lander is like chill yoga for a gamer. Golden Tee is my most played Arcade1up.

[@andys_gameroom]

I only get ones that flip my trigger for nostalgia, too. I have Asteroids, the OG 12-in-1, Galaga G1, Pac-Man Legacy and Ms. Pac-Man, with the Class of '81 just ordered. (Couldn't resist the "sale" going on right now). The Asteroids one was great (to me) but you had to fix up the controls. Heck, I've done that with all of mine. I even have controls waiting on the Class of '81 cab, lol. Great video, good fun!

[@KING_KONK]

Michael B you are not a butt of a joke you are the Michael Jordan of home arcade collecting you are a GOD!

[@dirksparrow]

Hi Michael , love your channel And I love Arcade 1up , far from perfection , but the size and the harwares are fantastic for : building your own arcade ,modified them and repair them easely .The only one i regret is Out run ...but still ..its my next modification project and because of you and all the community im pretty shure i will find a way to do it

[@shannonzahn9318]

Your always fun to watch MichaelB. I never thought you owned them all. You just have games you like, for your own reasons. I respect that absolutely. All of us arcaders are kind of like that. I own 13 machines, would have had more, except I have an original Ms. Pac-Man cocktail from the 80's. So I didn't purchase the MS. Pac-Man cabinets. I avoid duplicates, unless they are markedly better (like the new Mortal Combat over the original Legacy version) I did get the Class of 81. I loved that game list, and Galaga finally was the version I played in the arcade. The fast fire version. That made it worth to me.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Lies. You bought all these cabs and are holding the reviews hostage

[@KongsRUs]

Nice video Mike! I'd be curious to see your Tier List of all the A1up cabs you do own.

[@daveincognito]

These are great. Now we can ALL be like Ricky Schroder in Silver Spoons.

[@nBasedAce]

I still don't have a railroad set I can ride on around my house though!

[@videogamevegasYeOldeAccount]

Michael B, Thanks for sharing the T2 tonight on Super Game Room Dudes! It was really cool to see! I totally get why you passed on the Big Buck Hunter. I bought it, but it's not in my classic arcade room. The funny thing is, I don't play the actual Big Buck Hunter games, shooting at animals, instead I play the MANY mini games, where you shoot alien ships trying to capture cows, shooting beers off counters flung by beautiful women like a demented version of Tapper, and shooting cow pies pooped into the air by smiling cows, just to name a few of the many games. That sold me on the cabinet as I wanted a shooting gallery type experience like a Point Blank or Police Trainer game. I'm with you, buy what you want. Choices are good! vgv

[@aussiedrumnerd]

Great video as always. Looking forward to the T2 review.

[@EndLess1UP]

This is a great perspective! This is super valuable info!

[@jollygreen9377]

Big Buck is one of my favorite cabs. Im tempted with the Pong Pub table, great price. I’m glad you don’t own all of them Michael B.

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Haha Thanks Jolly! I probably would have dug Big Buck but Im glad i waited I got the gun game i wanted most

[@jollygreen9377]

@@MichaelBtheGameGenie Can’t wait to see your opinion on T2.

[@bonesjackson81]

Yeah Big Buck is a ton of fun. Underrated cab for sure.

[@crum013]

I just got the pub table for $405. It finally came down to an amount I would pay for it. I wish there was a aftermarket presence for it.

[@jollygreen9377]

@@crum013 I’m really tempted. Best Buy has it for $449 right now. Always wanted it but it’s been too high.

[@nerdloungemaster84]

Missing two of the Gen 1st, need to buy the current line up! The "joke" remains! You are still part of the 20+ Club! 😎😎😎

[@Bobbypinker]

Space Invaders is such a great looking cab, but it's basically just one game. They need to release a legacy Taito with that artwork and a full roster of games. In America, every arcade has a Class of 81 and has for the last 20 years, so that was my must have cab. I've been playing it in boardwalk arcades for all that time.

[@renefigueroa6309]

The main problem with the Class of 81 cab is how it's the same price as Big Blue. Big Blue is 6 feet tall with a new form factor, giant marquee, came with a stool, and a lot more buttons and sticks (two sticks and 15 buttons). Class of 81 has the same Pac-Man form factor, usual marquee, has less parts (1 stick and 5 buttons), and doesn't even come with a stool. I think 450-500 USD would've been WAY better for the Class of 81 compared to Big Blue. Wifi leaderboards and a light up control deck shouldn't raise to another 150 USD compared to the Namco Legacy.

[@H8_on_jo3]

I think my upstairs game room is 12x14 I believe I’m up to 11 3/4 scale Cabs With the exception of my collectible Statues and my gamer table I can fit maybe 3 more and I think that space will be used for T2,big blue and neo geo NVS, collecting and Building a home Arcade is very satisfying and very addictive so every time I see you purchase a cab I Salute you and waiting for the review

[@CameronMcCasland]

The Pong pub table is actually designed off the original Breakout cocktail cabonet.

[@griftgfx]

I've never seen that cabinet prior to you mentioning it. Very cool. They should have made it a breakout cab.

[@thebrokebrick7755]

With you on the cocktail cabs. They're horrible for the flow of the room and have a truly tiny screen when split. I sold off my Capcom cocktail for more than I bought it on clearance and bought Big Blue. Much happier with the form factor.

[@nBasedAce]

Are they doing XL versions of their arcade machines? I thought that I saw something about that.

[@gothamcityarcade]

Michael B, you just addicted! But you not the only three quarter diva out there.. #respect

[@scottboehmer1975]

Fun video. I only have four Arcade1up cabs at this point (well, except for a countercade and pinball) and it will probably stay that way until Daytona comes out. Ironically, I think more about the cab I shouldn't have got. I picked up a Gen 1 Pac-Man and it's never really fit in. Right not it's rocking a Legends Connect board, so that's ok.

[@crum013]

I own like 15? I think, but I don’t buy them all. I get the ones I like or have memories with. I should buy one of those cocktail tables, I do have fond memories of them. I did get the pub table and both buck hunter and golden tee, those two are totally bar arcades, but so what? I played those while drinking a beer as well, had a great time doing that too.

[@MichaelBtheGameGenie]

Yeah it's completely different between each person what you are interested in picking up. I know tons of people who love Golden Tee and Buck Hunter and have that same bar nostalgia and arent as picky as me.

[@thetruth2706]

I just bought my first Arcade 1up. I have a horror den and chose Mortal Kombat 2 legacy model. Only makes since for a horror den. Lol. But really you buy what you want. Thanks for the Arcade 1up Bosster video. I need that.

[@FernandodiLeo]

You need Sinistar, House of the Dead and Carnievil.

[@Feuerfr3i]

A1up releases cabs later that tender older ones useless. It’s difficult to really get what you want when they are now re-releasing so many.

[@brikkalassontae4697]

Also, space. Space is limited and you get what you want in your arcade. I have been building variety. Finally getting a racing cab, Ridge Racer, should be arriving sometime today. Personally, I like the cocktail version of pacman/galaga since it reminds me of pizza hut as a kid. Looking forward to your T2 review. I think I'm holding out hope for Time Crisis or House of the Dead.

[@steveblersch]

How about the pinball?

[@Gecko1993HogheadIncOfficial]

I found a PacMan & PacMan Plus Arcade 1up for free. I just picked it up from an individual, and I am basically redoing it to play more than just Pac-Man. I’m also thinking of stylizing it to making it a customized Arcade Machine of my own design.

[@curbydinobot8633]

Do you plan on getting the new midway legacy with MK1 design plus wifi and replacing it with your MK2??

[@brentrusche2056]

@MichaelBtheGameGenie I didn't purchase A LOT of the recent offerings (Big Buck Hunter Pro/World, The Simpsons, Class Of '81, Out Run, Ridge Racer, TRON, any (Ms.) Pac-Man variant and Killer Instinct). I currently own: (modded) Street Fighter II, (modded) Midway/Rampage, (modded) Space Invaders, (stock) Golden Tee, (stock) Star Wars, (stock) TMNT...original/wave 3, and a few that feature online play which include: Marvel Vs. Capcom, NBA Jam and Big Blue...now that I'm listing them, I have quite the collection! However, I will sell my Golden Tee as soon as the leaks for a Pro series is confirmed. PS - This list doesn't include my Countercade and Partycade inventory...I've got the same problem you have! Cheers, Brent

[@bradygoat1252]

I am surprised there are so few cabinets you didn’t buy, lol. Great video as always, Michael. I noticed you didn’t mention Ridge Racer, Tron, Killer Instinct, are these still potentially in play for you?

[@bonesjackson81]

How can this be over 20 minutes when you didn't buy 2 cabs?! Hahaha. Just kidding. I do recommend Big Buck. Really has a high replay value and quite a bit of content. Tho you may be slightly cab collecting insane, as long as bills are paid, kids taken care of and wife still living in the same residence continue to rock on! Save up for the game barn!

[@cpace123]

Thought this would have been 1 short video :)

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Omg this is the comment of the day

[@darkempire2022]

Judge free zone. I don't own all the cabs, but it doesn't mean I don't want them. FOMO gets the best of me alot too. I didn't really want KI bc I suck or T2 bc only 1 game, but I bought them both. Like you said if you can afford it and it brings joy who cares? It's your money. Do what makes you happy! *(I don't have BB either) bit I've thought about it a few times. ;)

[@LXW-Arts]

Im surprised Arcade1up never did Tekken, mario or donkey kong games

[@woozskee]

Fyi Asteroids Deluxe was costco exclusive

[@HowToBachelor]

Michael, you were popping real bad in this video. New microphone? Pop Filter software off? Outside of that, awesome video! Your the man! Buy anything you want, stop listening to the haters/jokers!

[@Inertiatherockband]

The shorter list , the ones you haven’t bought . Lol

[@PaulXMann]

How many was that, like, maybe 6 that you didn't buy?!? I'm half-kidding... everybody knows you don't *actually own every A1U cab, so it's fun to hear which ones were so bad that even Michael B. wouldn't own one! 😂😂😂

[@strells]

Love your videos but the volume level of your intro videos are going to blow out my speakers! I have to remember to mute every time!

[@misterdude206]

Yet.

[@WerewolfKweef]

lol you bought T2
