March 2023 update: Like I said in the video, I just wanted to do this mod just to see if I could do it. It was incredibly fun to do, and playing on it was also fun. A buddy and I had some great times with it. However, it's just a little too small for me to play comfortably, and it was just a bit too big to justify keeping it in my office. I sold it to a guy that has a small kid. They're having a lot of fun with it, and no doubt creating some great memories together.

Mine was absolutely worth it. I got the Final Fight cab in 2019 and it did lose its novelty pretty quick, and was collecting dust. I saw ETAprime's video and knew thats what I wanted to do with my cab. 2 years ago I modded it with a Raspberry Pi 3B, got a new control deck with 6-button control layout, LED light strip on the back, and used a set of logitech speakers and subwoofer for sound. I put my favorite arcade, Neo-Geo, NES, and SNES games on it and I really love it. It is especially fun with 2 players, of course. By the way, Command Strips velcro tape worked for me as far as mounting everything.

This video brings back memories when I bought my A1up SF2 cabinet back in November 2018. I believe ETA Prime A1up mod video came out early 2019 and that started a craze for modding these cabinets. It also helped a lot that everything was plentiful and cheap back in 2019.

I just got a free TMNT (the 1st version) cab. I normally deal in full size. Some friends were taking stuff to the dump and saw it, snapped a pic and ask if I wanted it. I never even cared to deal with em. I thought I could strip it and sell it on eBay for replacement parts. It looks brand new, and plays perfect, it was just missing a power cable, a red ball top for player 4 and the dust washer, all replaced. Now I'll sit on it since they are pretty much sold out everywhere, and a bunch of the rest will suffer the same fate at the dump, or get a mod. I can put a multicade/Pi in anything.... so I figure this as a collectors toy now. Keep it unmodded, and in clean and pristine for a later sale when the the numbers of originals dwindle, and the number of new collectors grow. I always just saw them as cheap empty shells with art on them already, anyway. I never cared for the guts, but like the compact look and art. A shell only for whatever I decided to do. If I were to ever get into buying these, it would be for empty, gutted or broken ones. But, for now... it's a free thing that I'll make 800-1200 bucks on it at least in a few more years. My pedestal Picade is in the garage with the PC arcade and my full size MK1 cab. No need to mod this thing. Cool video, I just listened while I typed!

Fortunately for you and I, there are plenty of full size cabinet blueprints across the internet, and once you've cut both of the sides out of some nice 18mm thick wood, the width is entirely at your discretion. The problem which Travis touched on is removal of the pi if needed. We can simply build our cases with a door and slot on the front and mount it with the USB ports and ethernet exposed. We move house Feb-Mar. I'm going to build a cabinet then. I've already set up launchbox and retroarch on an old PC and have all the ROM's ready to go. But a Raspberry Pi 5 is the way to go. And either EG starts or Hikig have complete 2 player LED button and joystick kits with encoders for less than $50.

Ok, I appreciate the time in making this video but @12:16 the dude complains about having to reach behind the cabinet to adjust the volume. The fact we can have all these games from our childhoods at our fingertips is amazing.

The amp is INSIDE the cabinet. If the cabinet was up against a wall, you'd have to pull it out. As another person stated, this issue can be fixed by adjusting volume settings in software. I didn't make this video to complain, but rather to let everyone know what to expect once this mod was completed.

Have you Overclocked the Pi to see if it helps the performance? Also if you do Overclock it, get a GeekPi cooler for the Pi so it doesn't overheat.

I haven't. I'll check into it. I don't have a fan on mine though. Trying to do it all as cheaply as possible. I might upgrade to a Pi4

Wait, raspberry pi 4 can't handle a Golden Axe game?

It's the Raspberry Pi 3. It also can't handle the first Tekken and Soul Calibur game.

But the arcade versions are known to be unfair/cheaty to grab those quarters, it's been proven.
@travisbowmanmusic11 ай бұрын
That's true, and I'm not disputing that. As a fan of video game history, isn't nice to have the option to play both the arcade/home console versions on this machine?

Look what arcade 1 up is making you do instead of you waiting until they add those games you just ruined the arcade 1 up you just purchased and changed it to a mame 32 arcade machine
@travisbowmanmusic11 ай бұрын
Arcade 1Up is not "making me do" anything. If you're waiting for Arcade 1Up to make a machine that plays every arcade game, you'll be waiting a very long time. I purchased this to do whatever I want to with it, and I got my time out of it, and then I sold it to a dad who is now making great memories with his son. I really don't see the "bad" in this at all.

I just got super lucky and found a Simpsons 1up at a Walmart on clearance for $100. Just having a machine to do this project was the biggest hurdle IMO. Besides that is getting the rest of the stuff needed to modify it... More buttons, new joysticks, ect. Oh and the Pi i'm looking at has 4gbs ram and wifi.... so i assume i could add games via wifi? Now finding time to do this as well will be a challenge as well but, can't wait to have the finished product.
