How cool is it to have your family involved in the retro world! The ultimate collection. Thanks for sharing!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

I'm glad you enjoyed it

[@chadwik4000]

you win a life of diabetes!

[@RadDadRetro]

Wow. Just wow! What soundbars are those at the top of the cabs?

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

I'll ask

[@Gypsycat19]

My banzai run pinball machine is worth 3 or 4 times as much as all that 1up cheap crap there I have a real T2 cabinet and mame cabinets which have 20inch 4:3 lcd monitors 12 Years on they still work flawlessly

[@zman982]

Dude this was super cool. I love that the family is involved as well. Thanks for sharing PDubs. I really appreciate you showing off collections like this.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Thanks man!

[@WWRNC]

I can only imagine the money that’s went into all of that.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

A lot lol a lot

[@TheLAexplorer]

Arcade 1up can learn a thing or two from you

[@DriverGuy23]

Are you just going to ignore the Terminator Pachislo machine? Lol, I have one of those, except I have the IGT illegal version with Arnold on it.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Didn't even see it

[@dragongamer2670]

Very Cool! glad to see some are turning the modding into a business. Also very cool artwork and well done!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@sailingsvzara]

I'll never understand wanting 10,000 games.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

I'll never understand wanting just 1 game

[@Nonegiven14582]

We used to buy the odd game now and again on Playstation 1. And it meant something. Used to play a handful of games down the arcade and it meant something. We could challenge our friends, learn skills and have fun. That was what it was all about. Even getting a crowd round a game you were good at was something we loved as a young person showing off at the arcade. It was our sport

[@dangunheadachron1603]

Tacky machines. Could've got a very sleek Taito Vewlix from Japan with MiSTER installed with all that money spent.

[@eddieabundiz4798]

Awesome Collection! Love all the mods and unique artwork!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Me too!

[@exmosquito]

‘Best’ and ‘Arcade 1-up’ shouldn’t be in the same sentence imo…

[@kato771]

Amazing! I wish I had that much room 💪🏾

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Awesome 👌

[@BillsRetroGamingShow]

Great video. What a cool setup. And good on them for all the modding work they do. It's a labor of love and it shows. Very nice!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@decisive-dolphin]

bro was talking about himself and his channel more than the kid's collection lmfao

[@brianbigelow6802]

Super nice gaming room. What part of Arizona? I’m in Mesa

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

They are in the East Valley

[@DeadBeatShitHead]

I wonder what his father does for a living? I hope I can spoil my children like this !

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

I'm not going to reveal that but yes the kids are spoiled lol

[@CSIG1001]

formal living room turned into a arcade room , very classy

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Hey man you gotta do what you gotta do

[@shaeet]

I turned one wall of my dining room into my arcade lol...6 cabinets with some crazy led lighting and retro NES/SNES posters on the wall.

[@thunderstashgaming]

I’ve seen their arcades on OfferUp! The beginning of the video I thought man this looks like the same arcades from RetroFam! Great tour and setup! 👊🏻

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Yep Retro Fam 👌 legit

[@darktetsuya]

oh that's super cool! digging the rick and morty custom at 4:12, haha! if I had the know-how and the funds I'd definitely do something with my OG ms. pac-man, for sure!

[@brockdailey703]

never knew i needed a twisted metal arcade driving cabinet till i seen one. Sick room man. Do you sell and mod these machines im pretty interested in buying some.

[@MrSteveonbroadway]

Wow in a way glad my room is not that big...lol you know why

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Hahaha truth

[@MrHarriss1971]

Hi, brought my 1st arcade 1up machine this month, the pacmania legacy. Just wondered if you could easily add other games to the machine, things like donkey Kong, street fighter etc. Have seen videos where replacing multiple components allows this, but I don't want to do that for now

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

No easy way to do it

[@DetroitLove]

Looks like the Detroit Love inspired mods! Great job!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Lol 🍻 😆

[@dailenolivarez7284]

Can you install multiple games into one? Power Stone, X-men vs Street fighter, ninja turtles, Simpsons

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

All of those machines they sell ha e thousands of games on them so yes

[@califloridianphotography3258]

What is the brand of sound bar do you mount to the top of your modified cabs? Thanks!

[@stepsgaming]

Hey they having fun

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

They seem to be

[@Roadie-hg2ec]

Unreal.. thanks for sharing! What an incredible collection!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Most welcome!

[@jeffreyprovo]

Very nice. Loved some of the art work changes, especially the Jordan and I'm not even an MJ fan. Plus the Blitz controls looked tight.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@pablitorentas4217]

How do I reach out to him ? I’d like to purchase some material !!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Link in video description for his offer up

[@supergrafxengine4620]

So he sells them with games.... games that he as no business reselling. This video is a nice piece of evidence for the cops.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

You gonna call the cops on every console listed on Amazon?

[@SpiritMover314]

WOW……..Nice collection!…..Are there any lighting recommendations to add to the exterior of the control decks without changing out the buttons or sticks themselves?

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Just any cheap LED strip you can pick up in Walmarts electronics section for $5

[@klacustoms]

Really cool! Good job! Now if he can only squeeze a jukebox and a bar in there with some led lights running along the ceiling area with it being dimly lit in there with a smoke machine for that 80's arcade smokiness feel. Now we got a party! Lol!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

I don't know man they were pretty maxed out on space!

[@klacustoms]

@@PDubsArcadeLoft You can always add onto to the roof! Lol!

[@brianweiner4616]

Impressive, but why not collect original ones instead of these?

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

These are what they like?

[@tjp8663]

These guys make me want to buy an arcade1up just to mod 👍👍

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Mods always inspire others to mod

[@bultronlagore4932]

Looks like gauges daddy’s got some 💰and it’s going into something awesome. Man I miss the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s atmosphere in arcades.

[@williamtinney569]

Very very cool indeed!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@davysmith8569]

10k-20k worth of cades at least. really neat

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

💰 big bag of money 💰

[@drewjenn9819]

Good Lord that is insane. Having said that, how dare you walk past that burgertime without showing proper respect!🫤

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Hahaahha my bad

[@orangenationarcade]

Agreed! Burger Time is like a Wonka Golden Ticket!

[@albinorhino8542]

Ooh I’m in Arizona, might have to check out the marketplace

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@ozlantern4707]

1 up is garbage

[@bradvinton8602]

His wii house of the dead mod. Did he have a Joysticks on that?

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

I don't think so

[@RetroFam]

No joystick on it, just 2 guns, 1 on each side of the cabinet.

[@scarpad]

I definitely have to start modding love the mk light ups, where’s a good place to the buttons

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

DIY Retro Arcade has light up button kits

[@kiynteam]

Mannnnnn this is crazy❤❤❤ I love this entire set up…. Then he got the switch mod ….😮 so cool…….i want to personalize my cabinets so bad

[@nickolasgaspar9660]

No crts.........😞

[@EnglishPolishOnline]

Why LED buttons? I think people are obsessed with strong light, not a fan of lit up buttons myself. But, still, and amazing collection, and awesome mods.

[@aussieoutlawalt8411]

TOYS

[@neoturfmasterMVS]

The greatest collection of emulation I've seen. Amazing.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

They've done some good mods

[@don.c.1056]

@PDubs Arcade Loft 🕹🕹🕹Hey PDubs, I got a few ideas for future videos... Show us if pre installed gaming hard drives (batocera and kinhank,ect.) can be used in a PS1, PS2, PS3 or classic. 2) How to make our Arcade1ups play head to head, i.e. connect 2 side by side to play 1 Street Fighter match on 2 machines and 4 player games using 2 machines with 2 player controls on each. 3) install a rotating joystick into a Arcade1up, Pandora's Box fight stick to play Akari Warriors ect with links to all the parts needed. I'm a subbie and loyal fan of your teachings, Sensai. 🎮🎮🎮

[@BrooklynMenace]

next level home arcade right there

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@Tambo81]

Arcade 1 ups are over priced garbage..they should all have 10.000 games on them. they would be worth the price tag then

[@madastra]

Is that the Retro Fam guy in Arizona?

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Yes sir!

[@madastra]

@@PDubsArcadeLoft Just talked to him today. Bought a couple of his pcbs and he’s trying to find some encoder boards for me. Very nice and helpful guy.

[@Backtothehat]

Looks dope! But, dang! That does not look like a basement. Looks like the living room. How’d you get the wife to agree to that????

[@FilthTribeFTP]

OMG! I'm so dumb!!! LMAO!!! I just bought LED buttons for my Blitz but they all match the stock colors, but seeing that purple, uhhhhhh!!!! But I alreayd have lightup purple and translucent purple battops on my SImpsons Bowling conversion, so I think ill do LED Blue and Translucent BLue battops for BLitz, but itll still look just as sexy!!!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

The purple was hot 🔥

[@nellen55]

Lol could sell then all and get the real deal. I dont get it y would anyone buy this shit

[@frankmarkovich5642]

Every nerdy kids dream room...

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Lol possibly

[@chrisjwalkerify]

These are not arcades though....But I like how creative he is....Just hate Arcade1ups LOL

[@gunsrtheanswer]

Funco pop, ugh, total trash. That money could have been better wasted on SideShow statutes, or even HotToys..

[@cdjxman]

Super Awesome!🤩I needs to play a game!!🕹

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Game On!

[@Dartanyoogles]

How many of those stopped working? My Simpsons cab didnt even last a year before it broke.

[@travisc5658]

No X-Men, no thanks

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Lol big fan?

[@NeuralX000]

One up customer service non existence star wars broke attack from mars delivery on my porch yesterday I refused delivery!

[@TheKurtsPlaceChannel]

Very entertaining and fun to watch. Very nice collection. Thanks for posting this.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@jimedd2561]

Very very Nice 👍

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@BlazinAmazin08]

I’m definitely doing that same thing for the NFL Blitz cab

[@Shned]

Nice as always

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Thank you

[@Lee-bp8sp]

Or just get a raspberry pi and put all those games on a chip half the size of your hand 😂😂😂😂

[@panicfarm9874]

Arcade 1 ups are complete garbage

[@jasonmiller131]

I would never go to work lol

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Lol

[@AnthonyVitale]

Awesome!❤

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@wr4thbringer]

what a waste of money and space. why not get one mame cabinet? and if you want to actually collect cabinets why not go after originals instead of this new garbage?

[@cwescrab]

Very cool, which is your favorite?

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

I was digging the fridge in Simpsons lol

[@andys_gameroom]

Yeah, awesome room!!!!!!!!!!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Very nice room!

[@danielerbert2657]

I'm jealous!! Awesome people!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Very nice family

[@rushmore3927]

Great stuff!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@FlyFreshTaDef]

What a dope home arcade! Curious what was the room used for before you caded it out?

[@Chuck15]

0 CRT greatness :(

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

0

[@vengod7]

The boy was about saying something about the light buttoned NBA Jam and you stopped him. What about it?

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Oh that it has a Pi (same setup as the Simpsons) running 4 player games

[@matthewalicea8910]

I would love to have those purple buttons for my blitz

[@3rdFloorArcade]

Wow what a cool room! 👍

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@JDzWORLD]

I’m in AZ and would love one of these how much do they run the modded kind

[@NemeanLion-]

Putting a secret refrigerator behind the coin door is probably one of the smartest and creative uses of wasted space I’ve seen.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Lol yup

[@Patriotic_Eagle1995]

Hope this poor guy never finds out about the raspberry pi....

[@RealziesCuts]

Awesome for you both. Gage 🚀 wow 🔥🎮 Stay Blessed Homies 🎄

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Gage is spoiled rotten!

[@retroworld8090]

So nice

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Thanks

[@alfredoolvera2469]

Awesome collection! I'm new to all this and want to start a collection of my own. Typically is it normal to buy cabinets built already or how does this work.sorry newbie

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Well what I would do is buy a cabinet and check it out make sure you like the size and form factor etc..if you like it you can mod it later and add more games etc plenty of tutorials out there

[@vcblaze1]

I’m pretty sure that’s the retro fam who buys my 1ups as well ! Lol. They do an amazing job

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Whenever I post a cab for sale they are one of the first to respond lol

[@JUICY_TIME]

wow, awesome collection👍

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@trailbreaker11]

Awesome game room! 👍🏻🍻

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@ChrisNxNW]

That is one helluva game room. Awesome of them to show it off. I may be just a tad jelly lol. Thanks for showing us Dubs! I assume they do just local sales only for the modded cabs?

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

I think local only on offer up and Facebook

[@ALEXB-bc9rp]

Yeah he spent a lot of his disability money on all this stuff

[@Lorenzo-wh4wc]

I see it more like a collection of kids toys then arcades. 🤭

[@iamledd]

Hey bro do you have a store I could visit? Online?

[@TheK20sedan]

What kind of sound bars are on top of the marquee?

[@RadDadRetro]

To anyone asking about the soundbar, it looks like either OPKALL or Bonks computer speaker stereo 2.0 sound bar. The OPKALL is 15 bucks on Amazon. Could also be a VOTNTUT. EDIT: Looking at 6:43 you can seen that it says VOTNTUT on the speaker. However the one to the right of center is definitely different.

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Actually the brand he uses is Votntut. They are on Amazon. Various prices and specs.

[@RadDadRetro]

@@PDubsArcadeLoft Thanks for confirming! Ready for SGRD tonight!

[@ConStormENT]

Sweet collection

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@kivaHBRO_04]

Imagine if he got Polyboys in a dark room hidden.

[@noiselabproject9659]

1ups ........Pandoras boxes ? ................. not for me thanks

[@statuecollector5723]

Looks great!!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

Agreed 👍

[@jasonu7471]

Very sweet game room. I think I heard Michael B have a heart attack with all those mods!

[@PDubsArcadeLoft]

He would!
