Is Arcade 1up || Mortal Combat 2 Deluxe Review Horrible? || Outrun the Neon Sun || 2023

[@PDX7]

We love that you bought this for the community!! Great review 💪

[@outruntheneonsun]

AHHHH YEAH. Thanks brother. As always.

[@PapaBradsGaming]

Great review. I have Joust on the Arcade1Up PartyCade. This is a GOOD co-op classic arcade cab. Joust, Wizard of Wor, Gauntlet, Bubbles, Rampage, Toobin, KLAX, and even the DEFENDER with the bad controls are the games I would buy the cab for. They just need to trade out Paperboy with Mortal Kombat 4. Playing with others online and the good looks are why I want the cab. I can wait for a sale. It is on my official buy list! It made the cut.

[@outruntheneonsun]

Amen! Paperboy is a travesty on that game but I never was any good at it. It's a throw away game on there but really, when I think about it, the only one that is.

[@curbydinobot8633]

I'd love to see Joust 2 and Narc on this cab as well

[@outruntheneonsun]

@@curbydinobot8633 that’s a great call actually. NARC would be so amazing…they could do so many other midway cabs man…

[@darkempire2022]

God bless you, your fam, and that beautiful new can, Dan!

[@outruntheneonsun]

Thanks Dark; as always brother. You are a blessing.

[@arcadetalk]

Great review Dan! Tron has those brackets too. I actually see there are some people online on the Mortal Kombat game. That is nice to see.

[@outruntheneonsun]

You are awesome T! Thanks for the comment brother; we'll have to play soon...as soon as I freakin' move!

[@vader86davedestephanis]

I loved pp just couldn't get to work with joystick I was disappointed that, great honest review

[@outruntheneonsun]

Thanks for the second comment Dave! For a second there I thought you were talking about Pole Position lol.

[@therealzimm]

Great review Dan! I’m excited to play some of the games with you guys! Feel free to hit me up anytime!

[@outruntheneonsun]

JOHN. You know what I'm MORE excited about; that drink in Ohio! hahaha

[@therealzimm]

@@outruntheneonsun LOL! Yeah I’m stoked too. I rarely drink nowadays…but I will make an exception for Ohio, ha ha!

[@outruntheneonsun]

@@therealzimm hahaha dude I'm the LAST guy to make anyone stumble so as long as we hang out, I'M GOOD!

[@therealzimm]

@@outruntheneonsun Lol, no worries! All in good fun, ha ha!

[@carlo1132]

MK Deluxe is def a step in the right direction to me. I really like the lineup, MK is not my favorite on that line up, it has alot of gems, Bubbles, Wiz of Wor, Toobin, Joust, Rampage, Tapper. I am glad toy see you guys enjoying online experience too. My problem with these cabinets is they are just too small for me, I'd like to see more XL's or a Riser from Buystuff Store to bring these up higher, I have risers on all my ALU's and even the ALU Mini to bring them up for my neck.

[@outruntheneonsun]

I get that Carl; you must be super tall! I'm 6'2" and the only way I play these is sitting down. So yeah, I get that!

[@carlo1132]

@@outruntheneonsun I'm 6'5", I like to stand and sit, congrats on your pickup, next is iiRcade?

[@outruntheneonsun]

@@carlo1132 I sure hope so hahaha. I don’t know why, but I want that so bad. As soon as I get it I’m going to review the first games I love on it. I know I’m going to love it to no end. It’s just not in my possession yet so I’ve been silent on it. Hopefully I’ll pick it up Friday.

[@ralfieduran8962]

I need to upgrade, but first I need to get that T2 before the price goes back up.

[@outruntheneonsun]

Yeah you do! Get on that Ralfie; make that arcade in there glorious and hurry up with your 4/20 channel hahaha

[@ralfieduran8962]

@@outruntheneonsun I soooooooo want to get started too.

[@outruntheneonsun]

@@ralfieduran8962 no excuses. Get your butt in hear bro and get it!

[@piperthirtytwo]

Oh my goodness what a throwback memory. I regularly got caught skipping class to go to the 7/11 down the street to play the game over your right shoulder: Golden Axe. Only when i played it at the mall arcade did i usually play with multiple players but just seeing it here for the first time in over 30 years brought back many great memories of the game but bad memories of my dads punishment by taking away my home games and tv time. Totally worth it. No ragrets

[@WalterHall-hj9cp]

Really good content ❤

[@outruntheneonsun]

Haha thanks again!!

[@GoldMineArcade]

Does it have a BOE monitor?

[@outruntheneonsun]

Yessir

[@RobotRon_2084]

They really need to put some better buttons and joysticks in these. I could barely play it because they were so bad to me. For the price, you shouldn't have to tear it apart right away to fix it.

[@outruntheneonsun]

No I get that. It’s odd to me that they haven’t invested in that since from the very beginning people have complained about that. But for the games I love on this cab, it works. It shouldn’t just “work” but what can we do? Is it something that makes us not get them? Probably not for most…but I get it

[@RobotRon_2084]

I would still consider getting one if I find a good deal on a Walmart sale or something. Replacing buttons isn't too difficult. They would just sell more if the store demos played better.

[@mikestockman951]

Is it just my cabinet, or are the discs underneath the joysticks really loose? You can spin them with your finger much more loosely than those of the standard cabinet.

[@outruntheneonsun]

Hey Mike! Are you talking about the guards? I hadn’t noticed until you said something, but they spin easier I guess.

[@The_Bad_Guy.]

Hopefully we have many fun nights playing this cabinet together with everyone! Great review. If I already didn't own the cabinet you would have sold me on it haha.

[@outruntheneonsun]

Oh whatever…I had like 2 hours to edit and I was fielding calls and dealing with people yelling at me to go watch certain shows…but it works. Hadn’t done an Arcade 1up product forever so I needed to do one.

[@halfadozen6]

Great review👏You’re presentation is getting better & better too

[@outruntheneonsun]

Haha thanks 6! Getting used to editing a little but still limited by a low IQ LOL

[@ToxcynTV]

Great review! My favorite game isn’t any of the actual MK games LOL. This cab is better suited to those who haven’t gotten a midway cab yet. I can play klax all day. We’ll get a rampage game going soon!

[@outruntheneonsun]

Amen to that!

[@Bo_Knows_Tecmo]

I want to have a gauntlet cab with 1 & 2. When you get 3-4 people together it is so fun.

[@outruntheneonsun]

Completely agree. Absolute chaos in the game, but man is it a blast! Thanks for the comment Bo!

[@multicadematt]

Great review Dan. I thought I was the only person who didn’t care for MK. The online play of 1up cabs is the main reason I buy their equipment. Have a great night.

[@outruntheneonsun]

Thanks Matt! Looking forward to the stream tonight!!

[@DrAshmo]

When is mk2 deluxe out in the uk…..?

[@outruntheneonsun]

Unfortunately, it was just released in Canada for preorder so I am unfamiliar when it will be released in the UK.

[@TboneTenEighties]

I own the MKII Legacy (got it for a really cheap price) and like it a lot. The online feature is definitely a cool thing to have but for me, getting my buddies or family to actually play next to me is where it's at. Just like back in an arcade. For me the high score placement list is what I dig the most about the online feature. I know people complain about the cabs being too small for two adults to play side by side but you make it work and it's a blast especially with a few brews lol. This delux is a great looking more authentic cab but for me not caring about online I just can't bring myself to get one..especially for $500 price tag and basically the same games line-up. Thinking maybe a Ms Pac on sale when that cab comes out. Anyway cool vid and enjoy your purchase.

[@outruntheneonsun]

Thanks Tbone; if I had what you had, there’s no way I’d get the deluxe either. But I was like you until I started getting really active in the community here. I developed some pretty close friends and now thoroughly enjoy online. It’s the only reason I’d buy a cab, even though for the longest time it truly was about having your buddies next to you with a few beers! Thanks for the comment again!

[@TboneTenEighties]

@@outruntheneonsun Stop it..I'm just trying to make myself feel better about not having a delux LOL For real though, totally understand. Have fun.

[@outruntheneonsun]

@@TboneTenEighties haha only difference is online and aesthetics…IF you are shallow like me then that last part is huge lol…

[@bugdude65]

Hello.. what is the pinball machine I seen at the beginning of this video please??? The one your kid is playing

[@outruntheneonsun]

Hello! This is the Star Wars pinball from Arcade 1up!

[@vader86davedestephanis]

BTW how is T2 I just got it for 299

[@outruntheneonsun]

Dave! I love mine; but its one of those things that'll make you frustrated quickly haha. Playing it with another is huge though; and $299 is a ridiculously good price. I did a review on mine and can't say enough good things about it!

[@JesterTester]

Great review, Dan. I am glad I am not alone in the MK arena. You know I love the martial arts. Especially martial arts arcade fighters. But I never really took to the MK franchise all that much.

[@outruntheneonsun]

Yeah it wasn’t my cup of tea either but I don’t care about the rest of what you said, just that fact that you are back and commenting. Man I miss you bro. I’ve been praying so hard; not worried but concerned

[@JesterTester]

@Outrun the Neon Sun Thanks, buddy. I really appreciate all your incredible support, prayers, and love. Believe me when I tell you it has strengthened me. I am thankful for that. I am happy to be getting home tomorrow, talk to you guys, and play my games. I have had game withdrawal. Haha. Thanks again, brother.

[@outruntheneonsun]

@@JesterTester call me if you are playing games by yourself; I’ll hang out and play some of mine too on speaker phone!

[@JesterTester]

@@outruntheneonsun oh, that sounds awesome. I definitely will.

[@Siragray]

Great vid, first vid of yours l have seen, but l'm confused about the "console fanboy" comments, can you briefly explain what is going on there? l watch some other online Arcade 1Up streamers and l have definitely heard his name before, just not sure of the history.

[@outruntheneonsun]

I would say, if you like what he puts out then great! He seems to like to get a ride out of people that’s all.

[@Shinobi-Gaming]

Good review 👍 very informative

[@outruntheneonsun]

Hey thanks for the comment my friend!

[@rosema7909]

It’s the same thing over and over. How are people excited?

[@outruntheneonsun]

I actually ended up selling mine. It’s the thought of having a mortal Kombat 3/4 arcade cabinet that was more exciting, not just the novelty of painted particle board if that makes sense. But, at the end of the day, they aren’t that different. None of the cabs are…I’d love a Super off road with three wheels though! Or a shmup dedicated cabinet…

[@NoHiro-qc4dv]

For me what makes this better than the older release is 1) comes with MK3 and 2) way better scanlines and speakers than the last release. The scanlines in the old version were awful. Tbh anyone playing without scanlines is a fake retro head imo, its like a movie buff who only has an hdtv and no blu ray player.

[@jamesandrews3583]

I purposely watched for Defender and you blew it off
