I Couldn’t Wait For Black Friday To Purchase This + New Arcade1up MK2 Coming?

[@ThePaagshim]

Making everything a casinocade will be the final nail in the coffin for the hardcores that have been collecting these for years in addition to the no new titles.

[@PDX7]

I’m scared of this man..

[@fretburner89]

100% correct.

[@seekerofarcades4634]

🤔👍👍👍👍

[@PDX7]

Thank you 👊

[@ohrid86]

hey phil its mikeys girlfriend. He really enjoys your daily videos. thanks for all the hard work you do and your friendship

[@PDX7]

Thank you :) I really appreciate it, I always look forward to hearing from Mikey

[@mikeyyoon]

Haha Phil's a good friend but I have no way of playing games with the dude to hang out 😢. Eve we gotta monitor XMen cabinet as that's our favorite arcade.

[@PDX7]

@mikeyyoon I hope you can find one at a great price, I might get that hoodie :)

[@mikeyyoon]

@@PDX7eve said get the hoodie but I told her you like zip-ups. She was wondering how $2 stops you from getting that hoodie when you buy $2000 vpins 😂

[@tedadamgreen]

Congrats on the next build-a-character series of figures! And 19kFox’s commentary video from last night was VERY good. Have a great Saturday and Happy Hunting PD7 👊🏻🕹️😎

[@PDX7]

Hi Ted, Thank you 👊 Have a great weekend!

[@4advids]

Phil, always enjoy your vids. 1up is all in on NCA (new customer acquisition) rather than catering to existing customers. Nothing wrong with that from a business perspective as 1up is a fun gateway into home arcade and we’ve all gone through that rapid expansion once we get the first one. But unless you have insider knowledge, I’d say shaq is gone for good. Every other cab that’s suddenly disappeared might make a 1 or 2 day reappearance with a couple units, but it’s gone. So are the days of 1up putting out arcades for core customers seeking more authentic cabinets.

[@PDX7]

I agree with you 100% those possible 2-3 day sales of cabinets randomly showing back up is what I’m hoping for. I think they are focusing on new customers and that’s why we’re seeing classics and countercades. There’s always those chances we get something like the XL at Costco or a surprise deluxe, just gotta hope for the best :) Thank you so much 👊

[@CoolerPlastix]

Mr. Fox needs a new boat! 🦊🛶

[@PDX7]

I was thinking the same thing :)

[@zackdreamcast]

4:10 are you saying “track mode”? If so I think you want to say attract mode. So the arcade is attracting people to it to play

[@PDX7]

It’s working because it attracted me :)

[@clashofclansshield8583]

Just letting you know, kenosha kickers’ costco has the pacman pub table display item for 300$. I would call them before coming to pick it up though to ensure they have it. It has the two deck protectors. May be missing a ball topper though.

[@PDX7]

That’s not a bad price at all, Thanks man 👊

[@clashofclansshield8583]

@ if it is still there and they drop it to 250 or 200, i will grab it. I have no space for it after getting their display midway. But I do like it👍

[@PDX7]

@clashofclansshield8583 that would be a steal

[@clashofclansshield8583]

@ that got sold real fast 😒makes me realize how cheap I got the midway display cab for😁

[@PDX7]

@clashofclansshield8583 I’m glad you got yours when you did :)

[@mikeyyoon]

Hey Phil! Nice utilization of those coupons to get that animated series collection. Sad to say this but I may be losing interest in home arcade. Just don't have the financial means to collect these. Probably sticking to console gaming. P.S. You missed a really sad fight yesterday... was heartbreaking seeing Mike Tyson in the ring at age 58

[@PDX7]

I heard it was pretty bad lol dude I hope the excitement comes back 👊 X-men tonight :) I like your new pic

[@mikeyyoon]

⁠@@PDX7I wish I could afford XMen Black Friday but we'll see what God makes happen 😊 Thanks you noticed the photo lol! I changed it because trolls always say I'm a fake alt account. I'll see you tonight for some XMen. Man it just depresses me not being able to play our favorite game together. But I enjoy watching anyway 😊 You're the man Phil!

[@PDX7]

@mikeyyoon dude maybe down the road you’ll come across one on marketplace for 300

[@mikeyyoon]

@@PDX7never used marketplace before... maybe I'll do that. That's another option. But you gotta have $300 😂

[@PDX7]

@mikeyyoon might be my only Shaq jam option

[@carlo1132]

Black Friday will be here soon PhilO. Here is my tip, buy an Xbox X when they go on sale, its still the best console to get and Game Pass Ultimate gives you day one exclusives, Starfield and MS2024 as examples. MS2024 dropping very soon and getting some flight controls for it. Angel wants me to get her a tree I think I have an idea for a product, a tree that cats can climb and not fall down!

[@PDX7]

Hi CarlO, I might have to get the Switch so I can play online with Mikey. Angel will love it for Christmas 🐈‍⬛

[@carlo1132]

@@PDX7 I'm getting a switch 2 for sure, got eyes out for Christmas Trees and other deals, bensbargains is my go to place!

[@EmpireArcade]

I still have my Garbage Pail Kids & still laugh at them like I did when I was 10 🤣

[@PDX7]

lol nice!!

[@markmyhowzin]

Congrats on the animated series figures, super cool! Can’t believe how low your taxes are, sales tax here is 15%…. I sure hope it’s not an MK2 casino cade, think I’d cry, going backwards to classic cades is not ideal but better than the alternative I guess. Have a great weekend 👊

[@PDX7]

Thanks Mark, 3 have already shipped :) it’s happening this time! Have a great day 👊

[@ChrisC488]

Nba jam vault will be here today. Shaq jam still pending through Amazon. Still showing delivery date nov-17-dec 3 which is the same date vault edition showed on Amazon right before it became completely unavailable. Selling my 3/4 nba jam this week for cheap 2 a friend. Have a great weekend Phil!

[@PDX7]

Hopefully Shaq will come through man, Thank you for keeping me in the loop 👊 Have a great weekend too Chris, NBA Jam next Saturday night 🏀

[@kcgeorgew]

I imagine getting what you want this season is the cheapest they're ever going to be for the foreseeable future as they come from China

[@PDX7]

Definitely I totally agree

[@gwildor8543]

I just ordered some new rom chips for my NBA Jam TE that has Shaq, MJ and all of the hidden characters available in the options screen. Can’t wait to be able to play the greats on an original cab. Which A1Up would you recommend for NBA Jam?

[@PDX7]

That will be awesome! I’d recommend 4 player deluxe at Walmart first, used Shaq Jam second and 2 player deluxe 449 third.

[@gwildor8543]

@ I’m going to get the deluxe then, will definitely be awesome to be able to play online. Thanks for the information and input!

[@PDX7]

@gwildor8543 please let me know when you get it.

[@ThePaagshim]

you cant argue with a hoodie these days for under 30

[@PDX7]

Nope, but I didn’t qualify for free shipping :) have to get something else to go along with it.

[@ds-yu4dh]

I think target pulled a fast one, the new 25% voids the other

[@PDX7]

So we can’t mix Disney and Toys?

[@bri.g.5105]

Garbage pail kids been out for long time now. Always saw them at Walmart. my friend use to stick them in random hidden spots around town

[@PDX7]

lol that’s awesome, I guess I didn’t notice them :)

[@atranfanatic]

I really think that if Arcade1up went Casino-cade style with their cabinets, it would bury the company under. Just my view on it. I do hope you get your Shaq Jam. But it kind of looks bleak. Hopefully I'm wrong on that though. Oh my weekend started rough as my car broke down on the freeway leaving work earlier tonight. My serpentine belt snapped and I lost my alternator and water pump. Meaning they weren't turning due the the belt breaking. So my temp gauge started sweeping up and I swung over to the far right side of the freeway and turned the car off ASAP! Then I let my wife know I couldn't pick her up from work. And I called roadside with my insurance company to get a tow. I'll be getting new belts tomorrow and I'm buying extra in case another one breaks, so I can repair it on the spot.

[@PDX7]

I’m sorry you had to go through this man, what a crummy night. Are you getting the car back later today?

[@atranfanatic]

@@PDX7 Thanks man. Yeah the car got towed home not long after it broke down. I just ordered new belts for it and will be picking them up this afternoon at O' Reilley's. Then I'll install them myself. Gotta crash here soon. lol

[@PDX7]

@atranfanatic get some rest and I hope you can get this all done this weekend 👊

[@kfloss1587]

The 1/6 scale Mcfarlane black suit spiderman statue is a walmart exclusive unfortunately.

[@PDX7]

Thank you i screwed up :)

[@ThePaagshim]

Phil big timing it with the premium gas. Must be all that money you're saving from not having to buy 1ups.

[@PDX7]

lol it’s not as pricey as it was :)

[@Merlin-wo1kj]

@@PDX7 Dealer had filled my 24 Golf R with 87... Noticed milelage was 25-26 on a tank. I only use 91 Rec fuel from KT. That increased mileage to 31-32 on the next tank and following tank.

[@PDX7]

@Merlin-wo1kj at least we’re getting a little more mileage:)

[@toyaday905]

Secret wars at gamestop canada already

[@PDX7]

That’s awesome! I’ll keep stop at GS this weekend, Thank you 👊

[@daviddeming1916]

My MK2Deluxe just arrived yesterday....do not get rid of your NBA jam deluxe....I do think that Shaq Jam is done. We truly won't know how bad of shape Arcade1up is in until CES.

[@PDX7]

Congratulations on getting MK2, I’m worried these are next. I promise I’m keeping mine :) if that’s the case I guess I’m buying on Marketplace.

[@bonesjackson81]

The Reign Man and The Glove is the Jam toy to get!

[@PDX7]

Those guys were trouble in the Pacific 🏀👊

[@mikeb6323]

I’ll take a Defender slim cade

[@PDX7]

I could see that happening

[@DatMane-z3s]

I think Shaq Jam is gone. I think you gotta go marketplace if you want one. Just following the trends of other cabs; F&F, GT XL, Ridge Racer, etc

[@PDX7]

Unfortunately I think your right, giving it one more week and that’s my plan B

[@RobotRon_2084]

Better be MK2 XL not mk2 slim.

[@PDX7]

I agree :)

[@TheBigb1973]

The nail in the coffin will be Trump’s tariff taxes.

[@PDX7]

Gotta get everything we want right now :)
