Arcade1Up’s Simpsons, X-Men HANDS ON (New 2021 cabinets!)
The Simpsons arcade is finally here! CNET’s Bridget Carey visits Arcade1Up’s headquarters for an exclusive hands-on video to check out several new home cabinets for 2021, including The Simpsons, X-Men, Turtles in Time and Street Fighter II Big Blue. CEO Scott Bachrach also teases what the company is working on next. (Umm… live chat?!) Where…

As much as I want the Turtles in Time cabinet, what I really want is KONAMI’s X-Men. Despite the $700 price tag, I’m still gonna buy the X-Men cabinet.

These need to be full sized. If you actually had multi-players on the machines, you’d be bumping elbows for sue.

Got my pre order. If Arcade 1Up can do a House of the Dead cabinet and The Lost World Jurassic Park cabinet my life will be complete.

@Aaron Barnaby omg it is and it looks so much better then the “class of 81” cabinet that looks kinda off unlike the original
I hope it’s the same games

I thought the whole reason for arcade 1up an the smaller cabs that they were affordable I bought my first one mortal kombat 2 for 299.99 an now they are way over priced 700 dollars for a cab is ridiculous in my opinion.

Never saw a six player controller game for the X-Men and I used to go to many arcades back in the day…They were always 4 players

@Pinkie Love Was always a treat when I saw one (rarely), extra wide dual-screen panorama. Xbox 360 had a 6-player port that I still miss sometimes.

1Up has done a great job of bringing the ole’ stand up arcades to the masses at some good prices. I have three in our game room and the kids love it. I’m just waiting for the Killer Instinct cabinets to come out! So, 1Up, if you’re listening. Hook a brother up!

Great video Bridget and I’m happy that you put the spotlight on one up arcade. Your content is really good and I enjoy watching your videos on CNET. With that being said, I don’t like these cabinets at all. I feel like if you’re going to go through the trouble of putting one of these in your home, you may as well go all the way and buy the real arcade cab, complete with CRT monitor, and genuine controls. These Arcade 1up machines are a gimmick and their screens and other materials are just cheap, overpriced knockoffs and imitations. Nothing beats the real thing. Just my two cents.

So basically almost all the tech YouTubers, big and small are spineless cowards, as Apple is introducing CSAM detection, which is a big step back from user’s privacy, and almost none of them have the guts to even talk about it. I’m a fan of Apple, but I see this move from Apple as humiliating. Shame on them, YouTubers and Apple.

I’ve been buying these for years but the prices are ridiculous now. No, Scott, the product has absolutely not improved. Better wood?! Better control times?! What on earth are you talking about?!

August 17, 2021 at 7:36 pm
The MDF is trash on these. I hardly play mine, but every few months I have to still re-tighten the screws because the “wood” is so bad

I wouldn’t want “live Chat” on any of my arcade 1 ups. I don’t need to hear “kids” on the other side yelling like chipmunks or “pot heads” yelling, screaming or talking in the phone while having their mic on… reason why I “mute all chat” on my game systems besides my own “private party chat…” that isn’t a seller to me. And the $700 price tag isn’t either so I’ll wait for it to go on sale

Dragons lair is not what was promised to us and is a big F..off for me if it comes out that way. Killer instinct is disappointing as well by the way it looks. Arcade1up needs to have real arcade fans onboard their teams because they are really missing their targets these days. Sad.

Once again, they screwed up the controls in Street Fighter II. It should have black bat sticks, not red. Cheapskates using MK sticks.

did anyone buy the ‘supreme’ branded? I must admit I don’t know what ‘supreme’ is, and I don’t care to google it, but does it mesh with the 80’s aesthetic of the games? Fine, I googled it. ‘lifestyle’ brand company established in 1994 targeted at the skateboard crowd. So… no. Who made this choice?

For 699.99 I’m very disappointed I was hoping that it would be 399.99 at the max. Might as well get a PS5 which in reality is cheaper if you can find one.
